Wayne County housewives are ■urged by Salvage Chairman Frank Beneway to start saving tin cans to provide another essential metal for our war industries. Said Mr. Beneway, ‘‘The experiment in col lecting cans as tried in such places as Rochester was such a success ’ -that the program has been ex tended to include the Btate and nation. Ctfns contains less than '2 per cent of tin and when this is removed the remaining metal is a good quality steel.” The preparation of r tin cans Is simple. First, remove the ends, then wash thoroughly making sure to get all of the paper label. Dirt and paper left on the cans make the cost of the resulting metal prohibitive at the smelters. . Then the tin can may be crush ed flat to take up less room. A cardboard box will hold a several months supply of cans prepared in this manner TjVrpi»rfB say that if there is insufficient room in the house the cans may be accumulat ed in a box or* barrel outside the door. In six months cans have not rusted sufficiently to injure them. According to Mr, Beneway, local salvage commlttees will arrange for collections after enough time has permitted •housewives to accumu late' a I sufficient supply to Justify the 'expense. Adequate notice will be given such a'collection. In the meantime householders are urged to start saving tin cans. offices will not be open for regis- tration on Saturday afternoofa or, Sunday. They should register early.’’ It was stated that the registra tion cards will be-gray and the let-' «ter “W” used as a prefix to the serial number of the registrant.. General 'Brown emphasized that thè greatest consideration should be given by the registrant to his selection of' a permanent address. He said: - • • “The permanent address given on line 2 of the registration card will determine which Local Board will have jurisdiction over the reg istrant. Certain functions may be transferred temporarily to another board but the home board will al ways have Jurisdiction over the registrant’s classification. For in stance, It is better that the home address, rather than the school ad- 'dress, of the registrant be given. The registrant has, of course, the right of determination, but he should remember that his choice Vadeboncoeur W ill „ Address Farm - Home Bureau Meeting —The noted, commentator.
