How Housewives Have
Helped
(Received March 4,-7 p.m.)
LONDON, March 3.
Britain’s housewives last year helped to save 40 shiploads of paper and enough metal to build 16,000 tanks, announced the Controller of Salvage, Mr. Harold Judd. Local authorities are at present collecting sufficient kitchen waste to feed 100,000 pigs a week, also 1000 tons of bone a month for the manufacture of fertilizers, glue and glycerine. The Government is still unsaUsed and is trying greatly to increase collections.
