' TIN SALVAGED

Salvage of used tin cans by a
patriotic American public in the
past three years added about 5000
tons of tin to the Nations criti-
cally needed stock pile, according
to Conservation and Salvage Divi-
sion of the War Production Board.
The Importance of this contribu-
ton is indicated by the fact that
our total tin stock pile on July l,
1915, was only a5 572 tons. Of this
only about 10000 tons were of pure
tin comparable with that reconver-
ed from tin cans. The remainder
of the stock pile was in the form
of ores and concentrates that re-

The news conference followed a

not bring us nearer one another =
Jinnah earlier had described the
talk as unproductive and said there
would be no further meetings.
We propose to go ahead with
this job the interim government -
Nehru said. We cannot stand still
because of this unfortunate lack of
cooperation by the Moslem League. "
Nehru added that he expected
the cooperation of almost every
body else and was keeping in mind
the desirability of enlisting the
leagues cooperation also
Asked about the Moslem Leagues
threat of direct action, Nehru said
1t either knocks the government
over or the government knocks di-
rect action over unless a compro-
mise can be achieved.
Meanwhile, the league continued
with it's program of mass meetings
in connection with today's observ-
ance of 'hartel" tabstention from

welfare of China; than ourselves
and more concerned with mobiliza-
ton for defense or offense.
