INDICATE SALVAGE NEED STILL URGENT The collection of war salvage con- tinues to be urgent; actually the need is increasing rather than dimishing. Recent statements by Prime Minister Churchill, President RoOsevelt and Prime Minister King have strongly emphasized that the war is not won yet and that a long, „ hard road lies ahead for the United Nations. Fats and bones, scrap metal, rubber tires and tubes, and rags are on salvage lists. , In. some sections of tile Domin- ion, paper is also urgently needed. Every housewife can' help the war effok, by saving fats and bones from her cooking. , They provide glycerine for explosives, and when everyone helps, it doesn'l, take much to .blast the Axis. Scrap metal is an item which can be found in many attics and basements.- The children of the family, can help out in this collection by keeping-their eyes wide open. Recently in Winni- peg, five youngsters all nnder ten, found' an old cement mixer in a vacant lot., They turned it into the school scrap pile. Tires and tubes, of which 10,000 tons are urgently needed by Decernber 31st, are required for military reclaim purposes. The stock of miscellaneous scrap rubber is now such that this type of rubber is no tenger on salvage lists. Rags, Particularly cotton, are requir- ed by the Royal Canadian Air Force for use as cleaning wipers in various air stations across Canada Rags are also required to wrap delicate pieces of Machinery for shipment, and for use in various war industrip. Except in. those areas from Edmon- WA to Port. William, paper, especially corrugated, is an important item Paper should be collected only in those areas where economical Shipment Can be made to waste paper dealers or to constaning mills. Waste paper has a variety of uses. After necessary treatment by the Mills It can he used as containers for AditS, as ifiglItatiOtt Mrs. Chas.
