Wha+Happens
To the Hose
You Salvage
BY JANE MOWERS

DID IT ever occur TO you 10
wonder just what happened TO
every pair Of silk or nylon ho-
siery that you dropped in the
fancy red. white and blue sal
wage baskets in the stores?
We're you thinking that some
little soul had TO sit and unravel
each stocking row by row? We
admit that some such idea
fioated about our heads.
But faint true. The reclaim
ing process is far less painful.
First OF all, the stockings are
shipped in 100-pound lots, mean
ing, in cold facts. 1.500 pairs of
silk or 1900 pairs of nylon.
Since different processes are
used ON silk and nylon, the two
must be separated before ship
ment.

Northwest's 235,000
Pounds Of 5a|vaged
Paper Falls Short

Northwest Washington house
holders contributed an estimated
235 900 pounds to the District Sal
wage Committees wastepaper drive
yesterday but. even though it topped
the combined total of the city's
other three sections, the total fell
short of the committees anticipa-
tions.
Yesterdays collection marked the
end of the first month of new
system of gathering up paper in
each section every four weeks. APP
proximately 10000 pounds was COL
lected in Southeast, Southwest and
Northeast on previous Saturdays.
Poor Organization Noted.
Evidence of poor organization in
some areas was found yesterday, ac-
cording to Executive Secretary
Horace Walker of the Salvage Com
mittee. A meeting of area leaders
will be called this week to iron
out the wrinkles. Northeast cap
tains met last Friday to discuss
plans for increasing the output in
their neighborhoods.
A shortage of volunteers in some
areas, refusal of certain apartment
house managers to permit waste
paper to be placed in front of the
property for collection trucks, and
a misunderstanding of instructions
by some householders impeded yes
terday's work. Paper was left un-
collected in Cleveland Park, because
1t was not understood that any
paper not picked up by pm. should
be reported to headquarters. Special
trucks were dispatched as late as
$50 pm. yesterday for uncollected
bundles reported in time.
Special Appeal Fails.
The total lack of any paper from
larger apartment buildings was par
tlcularly disappointing, as a special
appeal had been made to apartment
house residents. The salvage COM
mittee said it is aware that most
paper in these places is burned be-
cause OF lack of storage space and
a plan will be mapped for over
coming this obstacle.
Although the committee still is
of reaching its goal of Co.

Py the Associated Press.
A House Subcommittee, checking
into dwindling supplies of news
print, asked the Governments own
agencies last night: Why do you
need so much paper for official re-
ports magazines and other pub
lication?
Chairman Boren said the commit
tee had sent letters to the heads of
several departments asking them 70
justify their paper consumption. The
action has prompted some reduc-
ton in paper use already, he added
Representative Wolverton. Repub-
lican, of New Jersey brought official
publications into the committees in

duced several colorful magazines,

Also among this weeks witnesses
will be representatives of the Amer

ton.
The WPB says the reserve supply

print will be exhausted by spring if

The co-ordinator warned that
publishers who use reserve stocks in
excess of quota before the appeal
board passes finally on their petit
tions do so at their own risk.
He also said that last-minute pc
titions saying that over-use has
made necessary additional paper to
prevent suspension of publication
for the remainder of the quarter
will not be approved.
He also warned that the Printing
and Publishing Division will certify
to the Compliance Division, for ap-
propriate action, those newspapers
that do not obey present orders for
the conservation of newsprint.

ing revenues for equipment, lunches
for the underprivileged and other
activities.

this, is jointly sponsored by The
Evening Star and the Parent
Teacher Associations, provided more
than $4,000 for the schools which
was realized from the sale of 4,000,-
900 pounds of paper.
This was made possible because
the paper collected at the school
received the ton prevailing price
at all times. The same thing is
expected to hold true this year.

ton. Schedules are expected to be

ARMY CUTS SIZE:
Draft Change Voted

AS the house sent the senate bill
calling for the deferment of fathers
until all other eligible single and
childless married men throughout
the nation have been called, it was
revealed that the army had decided
to cut its manpower needs by
5000.
In addition to the provision put
ting fathers at the bottom of the
draft lists and postponing their in
duction from 80 to go days, the house
bill also requires occupational defer
ments be reviewed by appeal boards
within the district where the de-
ferred person works. A five man
medical commission would be es-
tablished to consider the possibility
of lowering physical standards.
The $4,000 cut in manpower
needs will give the army a total
force of 1867, 1000 men. It also was
revealed that the army had saved
over Is billion dollars out of 127
billion dollars appropriated for its
use, with economies of over 10
billion dollars effected by curtail-
ment of the armament, equipment
and airplane programs.

RUSSIA:
Cut Maxi Railroads

Two important railroads in Russia
linking German armies of the north
with those of the south, and running
westward into the big pre-war Polish
cities of Warsaw and Lwow, were
cut by the Red armies.
AS the Russian forces severed
these major German arteries, Nazi
forces launched strong counterat-
tack against the Reds in the vicinity
of these rail lines, gaining some
ground. But here, as further to the
south where the Germans claimed
100000 Russians were hammering
them above Krivoi Rog, the Nazi
positions still were in a fluid state.
To the north, the Reds pecked at
the sNazi base of Gomel, serving as
the southern anchor of their Baltic
line which is hinged on Finland. Ten
classes Of reservists in the Baltic
states have been called to military
service by the Nazis.

monarch, Britain; one with a COM
munistic form of government, Rus
STA; and one, a democratic republic,
the United States.
The test came in Italy. After the
parleys at Moscow, the AMG was
limited in its functions, taking over
only the districts nearest the front.
An Allied military commission was
formed which is making maximum
use of the local native civilian Off
Gals.
Italian Government
But what about the government
which the Allies would accept as
satisfactorily representing the will
of the Italian people? Surely Britain
would demand that monarchy be
given chance to remain in power.
Surely Russia would have no traf-
fic with kings and would instead de-
mand a strong left-wing set-up.
The supposed American cop1pro-
mise was a temporary regency, that
is, a liberal regent such as Count
Carlo Sforza who was in exile from
the Fascist regime and who left
America shortly after the surrender
of Italy. The little son of the crown
prince would remain the symbolic
head of the state. Many said that
neither Russia nor Britain would ac-
cept this suggestion.
However, although no definite step
has been taken, semi-official sources
have indicated that when Rome is
recaptured and Marshal Badoglio,
now premier, steps out, there will
be virtual agreement on the part of
the three victor nations on the Amer
lean compromise. All that remains
will be an agreement on the part of
the Italian people. Even if the lat
ter is not achieved, there is evil
dence enough already of tripartite
compromise and unity to seem to
confirm the success of the Mission to
Moscow.
