U. S. Curtails Use of Electric Signs Across Nation
The fuel administration orders limit electric advertising to 2.25 hours per night to save coal, with a possible total ban. Small merchant signs may stay lit while shops are open but must darken at closing. Experts estimate 250,000 tons of coal yearly fuel signs, enough to warm 100,000 homes. The plan aims to protect essential industries and domestic needs while reducing rail freight and aiding munition and shipbuilding efforts.
