President J, Alfred Valentine
has concentrated on food anj
animal industry products and
war efforts, to the exclusion of
^esscntial .-departments., As a
the extremely informative dis-plays
at the various "Nassau at
War" exhibits have been acquir-ed
by Mr. Valentine. In addition
he announces exhibits by the U.
S. Aviation * Cadets, the Wacs,
the U.S, Marine Women's Re-serve
Corps, Spars, and the Am-erican
Women's Hospital Re-serve
Corps. Incidentally, the

will service the Fair dining room,
assuring visitors of a wholesome
eating place.

on Victory gardens, which will
also be well represented, Presi-dent

entries for the Flower Show De-partment
are in excess of any
year in the past decade. This
department is under the super-vision
of Mrs. Philip E. Erhorn
of Garden City, who has assem-bled
hostesses for the different
days from nearly all of the Nas-sau'County
garden clubs.

of war work participated
in by the students of the elem-entary
schools, and a majority of
at the 10 A.M. service will be

its fight to prevent the Gov-ernment

plan to curtail the use of its
Power Plant to save fuel oil de-spite
the order of the Office of
War Utilities for it. _to^^._ go
beginning Nov. 1
As soon as the decision, dated
Aug. 28, was received, Village
Counsel Henry P. Viclbig, wrote
to Washington, contending that
the order was not based on the
contentions raised by the Village
Authority. He pointed out that
the government Jiad based its de-nial
of the application for oil on
the grounds that a curtailment
would cause "unreasonable econ-omic
hardship." Mr, Viclbig con-tended
the village never raised
this issue, but based its appeal
. on the fact that to curtail the*

Under the order the village
is given until Nov. 1, to install
necessary additional operating fa-
» cilities after which "the appli-cant
can secure a portion of his
electric power requirements not
generated with fuel oil from the
Long Island Lighting Company,
an alternative source of power.
This substitution will reduce ap-plicant's
fuel oil requirements to
approximately 18,000 gallons per
month."
The order continues:
"To provide for the emergency
operation of the applicant's elcc-trie
generating equipment for a
period of ten days, it is cstima-te^.
that 100,000 gallons of fuel
oil are required.
"The applicant stated that un-
"reasonable'"" economic hardship

The Village Board at its meet-ing
Friday night acting on com-plaints
that the Semkc Bus Co.
was charging two fares .of pas-sengers
within the village limit
in violation of its franchise, in-structed,
jthe ..Village.^Clerk to
write to the company to discon-tinue
the practice.
Frank Schmidt, civic chairman
of the Northeast Civic Associa-tion,
brought up the matter some
time -ago and it was referred to
the Village Counsel. He reported
the complaints were justifie^l. Mr.
Schmidt Friday night said the
former board ordered sign
showing only one fare could be
charged within the village lim-its
to be placed *n all buses.
These soon disappeared, he add-ed.
Now the board has ordered
that they be restored.
Bureau Cs*abMshe«#
The Village Board at its meet-ing
Friday night adopted an or-dinance
establishing a Village
Fire Prevention Bureau. The or-dinance
sets up rules and regu-lations
designed to safeguard
buildings against fires and fixes
penalties for violations of thei
rules. ,
Section 2, lists the objects of
the code, as follows: "The pre-vention
of fires, storage and use
of explosives, the installation and
maintenance of automatic and
other fire .alarm systems and fire
extinguisher equipment, the main.
tenancc and regulation of fire es-capes,
the meana?-*nd -adequacy
of exit in case of fire from fac-toiies,
Tn6spitals, schools, hotels,
lodging houses", agylums, hospi-tals,
churches, halls, theatres and
amphitheatres land, where parsons
live of^co^gregate from time to
time for any. purposes, and""in-vcstigation
of the cause, origin
and circumstances of each fire."
Before adopting the ordinance
the board eliminated a section
which would have required that
"the superintendent of buildings
shall be approved by the Nassau
Couqty Fire Commission."
When this clause was inserted,
it was said. Village Counsel Hen-ry
P. Viclbig understood it was
required by the county charter,
but this later proved to be un-necessary,

history of Frccport has there
'been anything like the program
