ported that ' the trapped troops,
possibly as many as 150,000, were

15th armies under command of
Field Marshal Walter, von Model

cers said there was no hope that
the Germans might break out.
The U. S. Third army which
lost the little town of Struthj five
miles west of Muehlhausen in a
nazi counterattack, recaptured
tho town a few hours later.
While Patton's far-flung tank
columns slowed down momen
tarily to regroup and bring up
fresh supplies for the drive on
Berlin, two strong bands of nazi
elite guards broke loose on a i
wild gun spree far behind his ad

A force of at least 400 German
riflemen, backed up by four
tanks, struck suddenly at Amer

following the initial collection.
the monthly pick-up service will
oe provmod By the three garbage
services serving tho city which
have volunteered the use of
trucks and drivers to moke the
monthly collections at their own
expense, and two helpers will be
provided through the salvage
committee.
Wayne Schuster, Lynn Wil
liams and Charlos Peck are the
operators of the services who are
cooperating in the effort to sal
vage as many cans as possible
in the city.
Once the cans- are .cleaned and
prepared for the collectors, they
should be placed In bag! or car
tons to facilitate handling, ai tt
is necessary to handle them at
least three times before ,thev are
.finally placed In a car ready to
go to the dctinning plant.
Three Counliai Cooperate
In order to expedite shipment
and provide carload lot at more
frequent intervals, the salvage
committees of Union, Baker and
Umatilla counties will join in;
filling the cars. A car will be
started on ,its way at Baker, re
ceive additional cans In La
Grande, and will then no to Pen
dleton for the final portion of its
load.
Salvage officials point out that
Malaya and the Dutch East In
dies, chief sources of tin, are still
in the hands of the Japanese, and
that until they are again in al
lied hands there can he no appre
ciable increase in the nvailable
supplies of crude tin. They s.y
there is no possibility of increas
ing supplies from other sources,
making it imperative that every
ounce of tin be salvaged from
cans.
This goes into many types of
war ordnance, and in addition
it Is used in containers for food
and drugs for. men at the front,
for making Instruments that ease
the pain of the wounded, and for
many other, purposes for which
science has not yet found satis
factory substitutes.
