WASTE-PAPER RECYCLING
By Lucia Johnson Leith
Special to
The Christian Science Monitor
Washington
Ever tied up your old
newspapers and hefted them off
to a Boy Scout used-paper drive?
Edward P. Cliff, chief of the
U.S. Forest Service, wishes more
people would.
Paper collected in drives
doesn't become useless waste. It's
recycled — made into usable
paper products, like cardboard
boxes.
Mr. Cliff views recycling waste
paper as an urgent need.
"Right now we have plenty of
trees to meet our current needs in
this country. In fact, we're
growing trees faster than we're
using them," the soft-spoken
chief continues.
"But at the rate the population
is growing and because of
increased use of wood products,
especially pulp paper, we'll be
running short by 1985 — unless
we use timber supplies more
efficiently."
Citizens can act
It's only 15 years till 1985.
What can the citizen do? Mr.
Cliff suggests:
• Tie up newspapers and take
them to used-paper dealers,
usually found only in larger cities.
Look up your dealer in the
telephone directory's yellow
pages under "Waste paper," or
call your sanitation department.
• Write letters to elected
officials urging support for
waste-recycling research.
Mr. Cliff does. He uses special
stationery that is 30 percent
reclaimed rubbish — an off-shoot
of the Forest Service's recycling
research.

Dear students:
I was quite impressed by the
concern about pollution as
voiced in yesterday's
Time-Advocate by some of your
Grade XII students.
When I read this article this
morning I thought a collection of
newspaper would be an excellent
opportunity for the students to
do something about pollution.
Besides being of benefit to the
'community, such a collection
could provide funds for the
council. I believe there is a firm in
London which will pay for paper.
I believe they take only
newspapers, but you could check
on that.
I would suggest that if you take
on such a project, that you collect
on a regular basis, say, once a
month, so that the public wills
form the habit of keeping papers
for you. I would imagine the ocal
paper would give you support in
advertising such a campaign.
As for storage, perhaps one of
the buildings on the agricultural
grounds could be used. I think
you would have the support of
local people to help transport the
paper to London. Our truck
would be available to help.
If you wished to reproduce the
enclosed article I am sure my
husband would co-operate in
having a stencil and extra copies
made.
I would recommend this

Exeter Times-Advocate
Exeter, Ontario
Dear Sir:
One of the problems we are
most concerned about at the
present time is, of course, the
pollution problem and the
general problem of maintaining
the quality of our environment
and preserving our resources. In
the latter case we ought to be
doing more to re-cycle used
material. If we re-cycle paper and
other waste products we would
not only preserve and conserve
resources we would alleviate the
mounting garbage disposal
problem.
To be specific, I would like to
see an effort made at collecting
paper and other re-usable waste in
Exeter. The Lions Club used to
do this but •now it is not done at
all. As an example to other
municipalities and to the
province, Exeter could develop
some kind of policy in this area of
salvage.
I echo the sentiments
expressed editorially in, the T-A
on May 29.1942:
SALVAGING
"This salvaging campaign is
quite a sad commentary on our
way of carrying on. Let us not be
misunderstood. Worthy of all
praise is the work being done by
the thousands of altogether
unselfish workers who • are
gathering up odds and ends that
in the aggregate amount to a
wealth of material essential to the
defeat of the unrelenting wrath of
our unscrupulous enemies. Every
effort so put forward is beyond
the highest commendation of our
choicest spirits. But what we are
pointing out is that we have been
wasteful people. The material
now being salvaged all along has
been of real value. All along we
have wasted it. We honor the folk
who are now salvaging what
hitherto passed neglected.
Hitherto we have something like
despised the people who salvaged
the material we now praise men
for gathering up. We have been
wasters and that's that. It is still
true, copybook or no copybook,
"Wilful waste brings woeful
want.” We are learning just this
minute something of the woeful
want."
This was written in war time
and referred to the salvage
operations which were most
efficiently carried on during that
period. .
We are now engaged in an
ecological war. Surely, we can
harness our efficiency and energy
in Exeter and put a stop to the
incredible waste. We could begin
with paper, cardboard, etc., and
extend it eventually to other
materials.
Some day we will have to have
provincial laws requiring that
re-usable materials be re-cycled;
in the meantime voluntary action
by groups or municipalities could
help.
Perhaps several groups could
At its Forest Products
Laboratory in Madison, Wis., the
Forest Service is developing a
recycling system using paper
from the city dump. Expenditures
for this research, begun two years
ago, will total almost half a
million dollars by June.
Only 19 percent of this
country's waste paper is recycled.
The rest becomes rubbish.
European countries and Japan
recycle more used paper than the
U.S. Their paper is recycled
before it lands in dumps.
Waste lamented
About half the municipal solid
waste in this country is paper and
other wood-fiber products.
Recycling waste paper not
only stretches our valuable
timber supplies, Mr. Cliff
maintains. It reduces air pollution
caused by burning paper garbage
and helps clean up our
environment by cutting down on
rubbish.
Not much room left
"Many big cities are right up
against it to know what to do
with their mountains of garbage.
They're running out of room for
sanitary landfill," says Mr. Cliff.
Compacted garbage is buried in
empty land areas as "fill."
Reusing even half of this
country's waste pulp products
would reduce the landfill squeeze
and save the equivalent of the
annual growth of 35 million acres
of commercial forest land, the
chief contends.
Recycled material would be
used for low-grade paper,
althqkigh at greater cost the waste
could' be refined to higher grades.
.The Madison laboratory produces
100 percent reclaimed paper for
things like bags, boxes, and egg
cartons.
