Householders Asked
To Save Tin Cans for
Drive Opening Nov. ] 9
Garbage Trucks to Make
Collections Twice Weekly
After Initial Week

The District Salvage Committee
today urged householders who have
not yet begun to save their discard
ed tin cans to start Immediately
their collection In preparation for
drive which will open here Novem-
Der 9 and continue for an indefinite
period.
Tin, like other metals, has become
highly essential to the war effort
and will be needed In great quanti-
ties, Horace Walker, executive Sec
retary Of the Salvage Committee,
said today in appealing to house,
wives to begin salvaging tin cans at
once.
Ramp to Aid Plan.
+ Meanwhile, plans were going for
ward at the District Building for the
construction Of a ramp estimated to
cost 1000 which will be erected on
property near the garbage transfer
station, New Jersey avenue and K
street Sc. From this ramp, the
city's garbage trucks will dump tin
directly into freight cars, which will
carry cans to detinning plants in the
East.
The War Production Board has re-
quested Washington, and all cities
over 25,000 population to begin the
collection Of tin cans November II.
Decision to start the local drive a
week early was made because Of the
large stocks of prepared cans be-
lieved already collected by many
householders.
There are many families, however,
Mr.. Walker said, who have not yet
begun the preparation of their old
tin cans, and 1t was to this group he
directed his appeal today.
Garbage Trucks to Collect.
Trash trucks as well as garbage
trucks will be used the first week
to collect cans which householders
have been asked to place out with
their trash and garbage. After the
first week, the continuing drive will
find garbage trucks doing the COL
lecting.
Since garbage collections are made
twice a week, the can collections
will be made twice weekly, too, it
was pointed out. The vehicles will
be specially equipped with hampers
slung over the rear Of trucks, into
which the garbage man will dump
donations.
In reiterating directions for pre-
pairing the cans, the Salvage Com
mitttee stressed that cans should
be placed out in wooden or metal
containers rather than in cardboard
or paper boxes. In the event of
rain, boxes stand a chance of break
ing up and spreading the cans over
the street, 1t was said.

At this writing, nothing definite

Mr.. Hullett was the son of Mrs.

worked. He is survived by several

other relatives and friends.
The accused slayer, Virden Meal
