Dallas Plans for a unified
i tin can salvage drive in Polk

' at a recent meeting at the Sa
lem Chamber of Commerce by
' representatives of salvage com
i mittees and school authorities

paign is to be carried on through

i way at once. It will continue un
i til May 19, when the cans will

erage bottling companies.
I Lowell Jones of Salem, prosi
j dent of the Oregon Slate Bott-
Jng association, will have
i charge of the can pick-up in
both Marlon and Polk counties,
I following collections by the
schools. Beverage bottling com
i panics are generously donating
! the use of their trucks and driv
1 ers for the pick-up on May 19,
! and in order to facilitate the col
! loctfon, certain places In both
I counties will be designated as
collection centers. Schools will
i be asked to bring their cans to
the center nearest them when
i the drive In their school district
has been completed,
i These centers for Polk county
will be announced within the
1 next few days. However, schools
! are asked to start at once on the
! collection campaign In their own
district so (that every available
'can may be collected and ready
for delivery to the nearest cen
' ter by the May 19 pick-up dead
line. : This Is the first county-wide
can salvage campaign for Polk
! county and will be the last un
itll fall. Rod Finney, executive
