SUPPORT THE PRESIDENT

| The latest information available as
this paper goes to press is that all
opposition to President Wilson's re-
quest will vanish. One of the great
est difficulties that face the chief ex-
ecutive of a government like ours is
the necessity to repress information
that the people have right to know
but which might involve the country
in war if made public No President
has vet ever betrayed his trust and as
time progresses there is less liability
that such will ever be chosen to the
the position. Every move President
Wilson has made in handling the del
icate situation that has prevailed has
been warranted by information given
when the time has become approprl-
ate. Some of the people may not
approve of the Democrat, but all true
citizens must and do love and support
the President of the United States.
Wilson must be as dear to the coun-
try as the memory of Lincoln
Miss Salome Riley, who is a student
at the University of Nevada, was in
itiated in one of the Greek letter So
rorities the other day. This is an
honor not acquired by all students
and very seldom by those who fail.
Generally supposed to be merely So
cial organizations. these societies
rush" their members from those who
have record, acquired either in their
high school course or in the work
they accomplish after entering the

USING OLD TIN CANS.

In America people have come in

useless which European nations IS
TEEN of considerable value, but it has
Leon for the Japanese to demonstrate
valuable use for old. used tin cans.
The salvage of solder from these cans
has been vaguely limited at now and
then, and occasional instances have
come to light where a partial use
has been made of them, but the COM
merciaI use of these old tins has
Just been brought to light in the ac-
ton of the federal government licens-
ing their expectation And immedi-
ately the question arises, IF Japan
ese tradesmen have found CONNER
1ial use for these waste articles, why
can not American merchants do like
wiser"
For some time, it now appears. il
has been the custom Of japanese
merchants 20 utilize the ve-gallor
cans, in which American firms SEND
petroleum products to the Far East
to ship vegetable oils to this country
At the end of this second journey, the
oils having been emptied into TAM
ears for overland transportation, the
cans usually have been dumped intt
Puget Sound, as worthless.
With the rising price of tinplate
certain Japanese merchants on tn,

cans for the material that was in then
