Mr.. Frayne advocated the handling of
this waste in prisons, by prison labor,
but not under the ordinary method of
utilizing prison labor He wants the
prisoners allowed the regular scale of
wages paid for such work outside the
walls, the state to retain an amount suf

and to pay the balance of his wages to
such dependents as he may have. II he
has none, it is kept for him and paid to
him on the completion of his term.

profit the Salvation Army had secured

war relief purposes. In six weeks the
reclamation had grown to 5000 tons OF

DON'T WASTE 1T, SAVE

Quantities of Equipment for Soldiers
England Got the Idea from Sal
walton Army.

vatlon Army.
NEW YORK, May 6.-'Don't Waste
1t, Save 1t" This is the slogan Hugh |
Frayne of the American Federation Of
Labor, member of the war industries
board and a student of social conditions
generally, enunciated for the men and
women OF the country at the session of
the National League for Woman's Service
For the war has taught women that there
has been a woful waste of wealth in this
country in the shape of discarded gar
ments, paper, etc, which should have
been utilized. The war pinch accumulated
the need for these things. The various
belligerent governments recognized the
possibilities OF what was commonly vast
ed because there was nothing to replace
the waste, so the system OF sorting over
the waste heaps was lnaugurated 1t pro-
duced tremendous results, and the news
OF 1t spread far and wide, and now the
slogan of all the social economists is tend
ing toward a general creed Of throwing
nothing away that can possibly be uti-
lied for any useful purpose
In his address Mr. Frayne quoted fig
ures to prove what conservation Of
waste" meant in reclaimed utility From
materials" junk"-received from the va
rious organizations cooperating with the
War Industries Board, 1900 men in the
army were equipped from head to foot
with such reclaimed materials in one
month i'rom June /, 1918, to Oct. 81
1918, we returned to service" 2,779, 343
pairs of discarded shoes and 696, S25 hats.
OF other garments, l4,3l3,4 24 articles were
reclaimed.
There has been much complaint" he
said, from junk dealers that we have
interiered with their business and have
deprived the hundreds of sorters' and
other workers they required OF their en-
ployment by urging that private citizens
do the same work for patriotic reasons
Labor has no complaint to make, for the
conditions under which they worked in
sorting this junk was most unsanitary,
a defect which was remedied when the
civic organizations took it up In Akron,
O., they have a reclamation organization
which is incorporated The stock has
been taken by the workers and the bust
ness has proved quite profitable The
