Main St WHO HAS THE ANSWERS? , To the editor: This writer seems to be chuck full of questions these days, but don't know who has the answers. So he would like to release a few of those questions, in the hdpe that they will find their answers First. What has become of our 300 mile "safety zone" around the western hemisphere? Did this country derive any benefit whatever from that tall bluff? Doubtless all interested nations knew that we were not then prepared for any war, not to mention a World war. Second. Is the Southern Pa cific the sole judge of the serv ices it shall render to the sec tions through which its lines pass? Doesn't the Public Utili ties commission have some au thority over that matter? Even if there should be a valid reason for discontinuing the fast train, why should the slow train stand Idle at Ashland some nine hours every day? Couldn't It easily close that ugly gap by continuing on to Weed or Duns muir, and returning to Ashland in time for its evening run north? Third. Since tin is recognized as a vital war material and our main source of tin supply Is In grave danger of being lost to the enemy, why not be saving and using what we have? Mil lions of tons of tin are now hauled away to the dump; an absolute waste. Instead of banning the use of tin at the canneries, why not let that tin do double duty? It would be a very simple matter for every one to empty, rinse and sack those cans and have them ready for the collector monthly, weekly or dally, ac cording to the locality and num ber used. That collector would take them to some central point where they could be crushed and baled as was the old alum- :. ,.-j: i -in -VjaT'"- -"-----' Beware Coughs from common colds That Hang On ftwtmiilslnn rellevM nromotlT be uae It goes right to the seat of the -reubl to helD loosen and exoel term l.den phlegm, and aid nature o soothe and heal raw, tender, In terned bronchial mucous mem jranes.
