existing programs, but special ef
fort will be used to carry out all
phases of the salvage program,
v Collection of waste fats has
been carried on with great suc
cess under. Mrs. Gillen's supervi
sion, and will continue along the
lines already established. Paper
salvage in the metropolitan

well handled by the Junior
chamber of commerce. It is
hoped to set up strong paper col
lection groups in each commun
ity outside of Klamath Falls.

inaugurated as a major function
of the county and city commit
tees. Exact plans will be an
nounced after reorganization" of
the committees has been com
pleted. Additional appointments
