ODT Urges Early Xmas Shopping

Joseph B. Eastman Director OF the Office of Defense
Transportation in statement issued today urged the public
to complete its Christmas shopping this month and send
all packages destined to other cities whether by parcel post
TO-
Early Christmas shopping and shipping necessary this
year Mr. Eastman said to enable satisfactory handling Of the
extra Christmas load by warbudened railroads, postal and
express facilities and local and delivery services. He
pointed that because of strains transportation and
because OF manpower shortages preventing the usual holiday
expansion of mailing and shipping forces delivery OF packages
by parcel express could be assured before
Christmas if the load in the few weeks pre-
ceding the holiday.
Text of Mr.. Easmans statement follows:
Transportation and delivery of Christmas packages pre-
sents special problems this year The transportation systems
have preferential jobs perform Postal and ia
ciles heavily burdened Local delivery services are
|rgd restricted Manpower shortages will prevent the usual
expansion of mailing and shipping and OF sales forces
stores.
The thrown on transportation services by
Christmas shopping and shipping cannot be handled at all
Satisfactorily the load concentrated in the few weeks pre-
cedng the holiday General public cooperation eliminate
the usual peak rush i'll ntercty and local traffic Imperative
This is how you can help
a. Remember that the best gifts for this wartime
Christmas War Bonds Stamps.
- If you buy other gifts, do your shopping i'll No
vember
q" If you send Christmas packages other cities send
small articles in order transportation space.
~ Ship all Christmas packages destined to other cities,
whether by parcel post possible and in
any before December TO- if you them reach
their destination before Christmas
Persons who give War Bonds Stamps will autonlati
caly help Tighten the holiday transportation load Those who
give other gifts will have extensive selection from
which choose, owing restricted stocks of merchandise
they make their purchases rather than later Shoppers
encountered with the small packages which they carry
under present delivery regulations WILL by buying and
by avoiding OF and buses rush hours have
less difficulty coping with crowded local transit conditions
Completion OF all Christmas shopping and all Christmas
shipping possible will thus benefit the individual
as we'll safeguard the of essential traffic

DUCK HUNTERS
TO ENJOY SPORT
No Restrictions Are Placed on
Hunting Inland Waters
by Coast Guard
NO MOTORS ALLOWED

No special restrictions will bt
imposed upon duck hunting ane
other bird shooting on the Coasta
bays and waters within the 4tf
Naval District this fall, Captain
Eugene A. Coffin, District Coast
Guard Officer, announced today il
response to inquiries. The district
embraces the New Jersey coast
south of Manasquan and the Della
ware Coast south to the Maryland
line. Unless prohibited by other
authority, hunters will be permit
ted to carry shotguns in small
boats on inland waters, Captain
Coffin said. He further stressed
that in keeping with state laws, all
boats used for cunning purposes in
the marshes must be propelled by
oars only. Propulsion by motors
will not be permitted.
Identification Required
Every hunter will be required to
carry Coast Guard identification
Card. Hunters shall not leave
docks before sunrise and shall be
tied up at the dock before shutdown.
All other previous regulations re-
garding small water craft will ap-
ply to hunters as well as the gen.
eral public. Nothing in this an
Inouncement, Captain Coffin stated,
conflicted with the special restric-
tons imposed by the Army in
coastal areas, but pointed out that
Proclamation No. of August 8,
1913, extends the restricted zones
to include the entire New Jersey
and Delaware coast lines. In the
4th Naval District, these restricted
areas are defined for Delaware as
follows: From Broadkill Creek en-
trance on Delaware Bay around
Cape Henlopen south to the Mary
land line, from the Atlantic Ocean
to the inland bay and canals.
