Detroit householders today were

THEY ALL DO PART

Retailers and wholesalers, In

sending out merchandise wrapped
and packed with paper only when
absolutely necessary. Many mer-
chants are asking customers to
return paper bags.
Affected by civilian production
bans. publishers have virtually
eliminated the call for expensive
magazine bond. Some publishers
have attempted to alleviate the
paper shortage by reducing their
publications in size.
In addition, the government
recently banned production of 43O
commodities which necesSitated
paper for shipping.
As a result, paper mills. once

The entire industry is in a like

at prevailing prices, can't afford
to bail the salvaged materials for
wholesalers. who bemoan no profit
in carting the stuff to paper mills
which already are overstocked.
At the Three Rivers mill, for
example, paper is now filling all

with an inventory of 5000 tons,
the mill now has 1900 tons in

says, Is still saving more paper

number of agitators and other
metal sections which he once built

PRECIOUS DONATION
Raimi's gift will run into hun
Idreds of pounds of pure cast
aluminium, precious to the war
effort.
In addition, he is turning over
about 400 old washing machines
which he took in trade on new
machines in the past year.
These are made of copper mainly,
each weighing about 100 pounds.
The motors are attached to the
machines and will also yield much
salvage of valuable metals.
The gift was made by Raimi and
his general manager, M. II. Elgot,
through w. f. Alderman, pub

over the first truckload to Kenneth
Burns, state defense council sal

Because the salvage drive may

MAKE USE OF
WARTIME POWERS

We must confess a confusion relative
to the Presidents threat to use his war
time powers, in event congress doesn't
act on this matter Immediately. We COM
mend Mr.. Roosevelt for his courage and
determination. He demands action and
congress should give it to him.. lie -
strong and powerful wartime PRESIDENT,
just what we need in times like these.
Congress has been slow in taking TINS
action. We think, however, the Presl-
dent also has been slow in demanding 1t.
But of greater Importance Is Mr.. RooSe-
velt's statement that: THE President
has the powers, under the Constitution
and under Congressional acts, to take
measures necessary to avert disaster
which would interfere with the winning
of the war"
If such power is vested in him in war-
time-Which we assume to be the case,
though any final decision is up to the
Supreme Court-then we wonder II he
doesn't have the power to act on all
things in wartime without Congress.
What. then. is the use of Congress during
war years such as these? Why not let
Congress go home until the war Is over?
Not that Congress has proved much good
of recent years, but after all, it is sup
posed to represent the people To abol-
ish it temporarily would be like adopting
dictatorship 100 per cent during the very
period we are waging war against such
ideas.
Mr.. Roosevelt's threat to act on his
own is threat to give broader interpre-
tation to law than has ever been given be-
fore. Maybe that should be done. Maybe
it shouldn't At any rate, his threat GER
tainly should make congress sit up and
take notice, and we hope it does. In fact,
we hope the douse of ice-cold water will
awaken Congress to full-fledged, all-out
intelligent. efficient action during the

as material favoritism has been shown
labor in the past, it will be shown labor
in the balancing process. When war ap-
preached wages were the first things to
start climbing; which fact dictated the
original objection by agriculture against
fixing ceilings at mere parity. Hence, the
farmer might justifiably feel that the

Roosevelt said in his fireslde chat,

don't like the implication that nobody
has ever questioned the patriotism OF

Not wishing to trade for a pig in
