If we are now entering a long
and unthinkably expensive war,
it is going to be vitally import
ant that we form the habit and
practice of conserving all of our
resources. This almost Incon

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-
