0ne-Day Waste Paper Drive
Scheduled in Alexandra

Members of Alexandria civic Or
ganizations, boys clubs and other
groups have volunteered to help in
the one-day paper salvage drive Sat-
urday.
Charles Henry Mason, city sal
wage chairman, said that bundles
OF newspapers and magazines should
be tied together and placed on the
curb before noon SO that the trucks
can pick them up.
Nothing but paper should be put
out Saturday. but residents are
urged to continue saving scrap
metal, tin cans and fats, and to turn
1t in as often as possible.
The city is behind its quota in tin
can collections, but Mr.. Mason said
the collections are improving.
Although the State salvage chair
man has stressed the need for saving
waste paper as we'll as newsprint,
cardboard and magazines, Mr.. Ma
son explained that there is no press
in the city to bale the waste paper
and it is not acceptable in loose form
so it will be impossible to collect it
in Alexandria.
The sending of city trucks to
homes to collect bundles of news
papers has given the city an excel
lent record for paper salvage and
Mr.. Mason is urging residents to
continue to save after the drive and
to telephone Alexandria l454 when
enough papers have ben collected
to warrant sending truck for them

Fairfax Board Urges
Reeapping Of Tires
Warns Grade ! Quote
Won't Meet Demand

Warning that the current quota
OF grade / tires will not meet the
demands of motorists qualified to
purchase them. the Fairfax County
Ration Board last night called on
county motorists with worn tires to
have them re-examined at their
nearest recapping station.
Officials said motorists whose tires
have been condemned by local tire
inspection stations should have a
reputable recapping expert examine
them before applications are made
for new tires.
Board officials said many worn
tires, if recapped in time, will be
superior to the grade 3 new tires
now available. They pointed out
that Fairfax County motorists have
higher monthly occupational mile
age average than other sections of
the District area, and it is impera-
tive that tires be kept in running
condition.
Every effort is being made to OBJ
tain an adequate quota for the
county, and to distribute tires on
an equitable basis, board officials
said. They warned, however, that
the outlook for the rest of the year
Is not promising.
