DIRECTS APPEAL
 TOALL SHIPPERS
Industrial Plants, Whole. salers Urged to Conserve,
 Re-Use Containers

With eight million tons of paper
 required immediately to make con- tainers and wrappings for 100000 : items needed by the armed forces, ' William P. Romans. deputy director, . Priorities Distribution, Region : War Production Board, today urged inA.asfr1al plants and wholesalers
 throughout New England to use every means to save and reuse shipping containers.
 In . letter to heads of shipping departments and to purchasing agents, Romans wrote:
 . The conservation and reuse of shipping containers by industrial plants and wholesalers is imperative
 Ways must be found to permit con- { tainers to be used two, three or even four times. The active cooperation - of all receiving and shipping de- partments and all personnel having
 to do with opening and closing con-
 tainers should be required by plant end store managers.
 Tt Is particularly important that persons responsible for opening fibre containers should be instructed to ePcn them carefully, and that spec 1al tools should be instructed to open 7 them carefully, and that special :. tools should be provided for this pur-
 pose whenever necessary.
 :. "If the shipper 'overseals' his : fibre containers with adhesive or staples, 1t is harder for the receiver 2 to avoid damaging the containeI ; when he opens 1t. Therefore, we
 must so handle containers that they ,. can be reused to the very limit. War Production Board field offices will
 furnish experts to consult on these
 problems when requested.
 , Tn plants which cannot reuse
 the fibre containers which they re- : ceive, it is important to avoid dam .@ aging these containers, and it is equally important to put them back [. into distribution channels. After z opening fibre containers carefully } and unpacking them, the receiver
 should fold them flat and tie them in convenient bundles.
 There are used container dealers
 in all the large industrial cities of
 New England, who will distribute
 used containers to persons ano
 plants who can reuse them, includ- !. ing the metropolitan Boston area. ' the Used Container Dealers Associa- : ton at 258 Park Sq. Bldg, telephone ], DEvonshire 7l74. The WIPE will also ; be glad to list containers for resale through the Materials Redistribution k Dept.
 When fibre containers can nc , longer be reused, they should be . flattened, bundled and baled for re- !. aale as waste paper. Paper mills are !. today facing silutdownS for want of
 this waste paper-wIthout 1t they s cannot make new containers.'

Philanthropy With a Flourish

Harry Mclean, the unconventional
philanthropist, got back into the news
the other day by throwing $4,000 in bills
and silver out of hotel window to the
surprise and delighted citizens of Wind
sor, Ont. Not so long ago he was passing
out money and good cheer to hospitalized
soldiers.
II like to see people happy" is the
Toronto contractors excuse.
Mr.. Mclean must get considerable
pleasure out of the distribution, too,
which is probably good thing. For
certainly he is misunderstood man.
That was apparent when he presented
the desk sergeant at the Windsor police
station with a $4,000 check "for your
burial fund" The sergeant took the
check to the chief, with the comment
that he thought the guy was crazy. The
chief was about to agree when he saw
and recognized the signature on the
check. But it was Mr.. McLean's Solvency
and not the sincerity of his generous inn
pulse that made the chief reverse the in
sanity verdict.
INOW, III d SdQ
our n1aterialistic civilization when we
class man like Harry Mclean,
with such zanies as flagpole sitters,
bowling dervishes, and men who
stand on their heads at the Metropolitan
Opera House. All that Mr.. Mclean is do
ing is being philanthropic with a swash-
buckling flourish, instead of following the
staid, accepted path. Consider the case
of the late John D. Rockefeller, for in
stance. To get one of his shiny new dimes,
you had to listen to six bits worth of pre-
ceptS about thrift Or consider the many
generous grants, trusts and foundations
which, though they may do incalculable
good, seldom kindle spark in the public
imagination.
But Mr.. McLean's generosity, like Mr.
Shakespeare's quality of mercy, falleth
as the gentle rain from heaven. And Mr.
Mclean never bothers to ask who gets
wet
Mr. Mclean is a rich man, and he must
pay Canada a whopping big tax. But
that doesn't put him in peeny- pinching
mood. His open-handedness is refresh
ing in this day of high taxes, high cost
of living and complaints thereof. He
knows that he is still more fortunate than
most.
Yes, it's shame that we consider a
man eccentric when he is only trying to
follow the scriptural directions for rich
man to enter the Kingdom OF Heaven.
Here's hoping he makes it.

Will History Repeat?

Congress didn't really need an Easter
vacation. But the short period OF
absence from Washington may lower the
blood pressures of many statesmen, and
make it little easier for them to meet
the ever-increasing number of demands
from the White House to do things ac-
cording to the Presidents orders.
1t is mo fun to upset the Admins
tration's tax bills, or disagree with the
Chief about the way soldiers can VOTE In
former times Mr.. Roosevelt had only to
crack-the-whip over the heads of mem
bers of the two branches of Congress to
"get things done his own way" But
Congress hasn't thoroughly recovered
from the shock of learning that it has re-
gained independence" after eleven years
of letting the President think things
through, and hand over his plan for
"rubber stamp" approval.
What Congress really has done is to
shut up shop for brief period, and head
for home, presumably to find out just
how far the public will go along with the
legislative body in minding it's own bust
ness in it's own way. That's another evil
dence of independence" Tremendous
QuesticnS are coming up and unless the
Administration and Congress are able
to restore harmonious relations the whole
nation is sure to become involved in the
struggles over major questions and
policies.

A Thought for Today
Easter Message

The events commemorated in Holy
Week have never been equalled in their
dramatic and tragic import. Even to-
day when the world is faced with all the
horrors of one of the worst wars in
history the passion and death of the
Savior of mankind, Jesus Christ, stands
out as one of the unequalled sequences
of all times.
This week the liturgy of the church
reenactS the events that preceded the
death on the cross. We are again i'm
pressed with the solemnity attached. On
Good Friday the stirring tragedy of the
Crucifixion moves us; but by next week
many of us forget it again - until next
year.
RICH now we are all more or less af-
fected by what is going on i'll the war
areas. Most of the time, while we act
and talk optimistically, we do not see
much hope ahead. We are filled with
during those dark days of the agony in
the garden and the march to Calvary.
All of this had a purpose. This pur-
pose was translated on the joyous Easter
morning when events transpired as fore

to come there will be a peace and bright
ness for those who are now experiencing
the so-called zero hour
Each year Lent is approached with
that feeling of hope-Easter is ahead
with it's hope and promise and fulfill
ment. We turn page of the important
publication, "The Catholic Transcript,
the Catholic diocesan newspaper, and
read the words, "the Resurrection of
Christ is an historical fact. The acid of
1ong-continued and merciless criticism
has not been able to destroy it's anthem
ITCHY. How shall we be in the like
ness of His Resurrection? BY dying to
sin and living unto God. =. Easter then
is not an anniversary of something that
is dead and gone. It is the anniversary
of conquest of death that exists here
and now. :"

guests and giving them "swell time.
He paid his bills with checks on San
Francisco banks, worked rackets right
and left-and left town. The sequel is
that the cops caught him in Chicago, and
wound up his little balls of yarns and
racketS. There is "war-wave" of mis-
doings that were startling in World War
I. The catalogue of crimes runs through
the alphabet from to z. So, watch your

Help the Law Enforcement Men

]. Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI,
has the most efficient and best trained
organization to combat crime, ever
known in our country. He has trained
and schooled hundreds of bright young
men who actually perform those miracles
attributed to Sherlock Holmes, Pinker-
ton,, and even live up to traditions Of
pot-boilers who invented stories of crime
that were fascinating reading to people
who liked "dime novels"
Congressman Dies is also pretty fast on
the trigger-a sad discovery realized
quite lat, by Walter Winchell. Too much
credit cannot be given to civilian and
military police in +heir work to combat
wartime rackets, and put brakes on
lot Of people" whose conduct indicates
an epidemic of high blood pressure. Mr..
Hoover says that wartime conditions have
brought new styles of operation by old
time racketeerS, and introduced whole
armies Of parasites, who are operating
