McWhinney Measure Will Permit
Burials Within Half Mile
of Reservoirs.
Governor Whitman on Monday sign 0(1 the bill of Assemblyman McWhin¬ ney, which permits burials in cemer teries within a half mile of resarvoirs or ponds uaed by the city of Brooklyn for water. The Ciovernor wrote a memorandum on the bill in'which he said that it provided no burials should be allowetl with a half mile of any reservoir or pond us^d for supplying the former city of Brooklyn with water, by providing that in the county of Nassau, upon the written consent of the commissioner of water supply, gas and electricity of the city of New York and the State Department of Health, burials could be made within that dis¬ tance.
"The health commissioner has al¬ ready approved a rule," continues the Governor's memorandum, "which pro¬ vides that no cemetery shall be es¬ tablished or burials made within three hundred feet of such a reservoir. This bill does not break down the restric¬ tion of a half mile, but makes it pos¬ sible to extend as well as to reduoe the restricted distance. Under this act it is further safeguarded by requiring the approval of the commissioner of water supply, gas and electricity. The bill has the approval of the Mayor and the local authorities of the city of New York and the 'State Health Department."
The cemeteries in Nassau County affected by the new bill are Elmont and the Rockville or old Sand Hole Church burial ground.
The growing of hard clams in wat¬ ers along the south side, especially in the territory extending from Fira Isl¬ and to Rockaway Inlet, is becoming a difficult affair, according to »ome planters who have engaged in it for years. ¥ji\ grass and borers, a species of snai'l, are reported to hi deadly enemies which prevent the clams from growing. The grass .smothers the .seed where it prevails on tho planted ;ri\)und and thickens lo the extent that the clams are unable to get through it for nourishment and to breathe.
The borers have usually feasted on oysters, but of latw, according to state¬ ments by planters, have been attract¬ ed to the clams and ravaged the beds extensively. Hundreds of dollars spent for seed have been lost, it is claimed, as a result of the destructive elements, so that there is little or no chance of making a ]irofit.
The natural growth of clams ia re¬ ported to bs fair in certain sections of the affected area, but nothing com¬ pared to that of a few years ago. A ifew planters have Jiot suffered from eel grass or iborers on their beds and by reeaiving good prices, netted a sub¬ stantial amount, 'but tne high price of seed kept down the profits to a con¬ siderable extent. The seed is usually f'ltained from Connecticut growers who plant in Long Island 'Sound.
Hard clams have always been con¬ sidered a delicacy on the American family and hotel taibres. A clam roast, p>otpie, stew or boil-out always

NOHUNTING PERMITS TO ALIEN ENEMIES
Hunting; licenses nnust not ibe issued to alien enemies, the State Conserva¬ tion Commission bars announced from Albany, and all town clerks warned to comply stricMy with the mandate.
The commissdon points out that in view of President Wilson's proclama¬ tion to the effect that alien enemies must not have firearms in their pos¬ session at any time a new reaponsi- ibility devolves upon town clerks and that the commission wilLsee to it that the dictates of the proclamation are obeyed.
<ises of violation of the hunting license law have revealed that there are many town clerks who delegate their duties to their wives, daughters or partners while they are ithemseflves attending to other business. Such persons have no authority to adminis¬ ter the oath which the law i-equirea of all applicants for hunting and trap¬ ping licenses and oaths thus adminis¬ tered are legally void.
Purthermoi-e, the Conservation C<ommi»sion reports that ap{>lications for licenses are often improperly or only partially rilled out, questions as to citisenahip being sometimes l«ft blank or followed with a daSh. The comnmsion has evidence that in this way resident ^itisen licenses, costing $1.10 have been issued tu non-resi¬ dents or aliens whoae legal f^« is 110.50.

MUST GIVE GAS TO MASSAPEQUA
.^fter hearing a complaint madi' hy members of the Massapequa lioard of Trade that the South Shore Liprht- ing. Company had disc"ontinued the laying of gas mains in the community, thereby depriving residents of the service they had exprected, the Oyster Bay Town Board last Friday gave the company representatives two weeks in which to eflfect a satisfactory compromise with the complaints.
The South Shore Lighting Com¬ pany is a subsidary of the Long Isl¬ and Lighting Company, which Enter¬ ed into a contract with the Mass'a- ¦pequa ligihting district last year to lay mains in that village and supply gas for light and heat. Construction was started and continued until the gas company had secured a large gov¬ ernment contract at Camp Upton. Work at Massapequa discontinued then and has never been resumed. Af¬ ter fruitless attempts to get. the com¬ pany to fulfill the contract the citi¬ zens of Massaipequa, represented by their Board of Trade, appealed to the Town Board for relief and the hear¬ ing was the result.
