 For example, newspapers and mag aZines are collected and resold either at very low price so that they may be obtained by persons unable 10 pur- chase them at their original price. or they are punched together and sold as waste paper. Rags, of certain dimen- sions, are sold to mechanical plants where they are used as wiping rags for the machines. Old articles of jewelry, no longer desirable to the owner are collected and the precious metals taken from them, the revenue going to the Red Cross. Tin foils and other foils of various metals are collected from various sources. Upon articles which are collected and returned to the mer chant from which they were originally procured, are placed tags bearing the inscription, "Salvaged by the Red Cross" This indicates that though the article shows some signs of use, the Red Cross has benefited from the transaction. The customer is therefore not averse to purchasing it and paying the full price, for in most cases the article is as good as new, and can probably be salvaged in the same way many times.

 Arizona in Vanguard
 That Arizona has already taker the lead in the salvage work of the Red Cross, and that a local condi- tion will allow for the immediate further development of the plan 1T this district, was brought out bN Chairman Goodrich.
 An example of the practical ap. plication of this war time economy was cited in the case of Tucson where hat boxes. in which womel receive the delivery Of their head gear, are returned to the milliner! store from whence they came. Or the box is pasted the Red Cros label, showing that the box ha
