URGEENT NEED FOR WASTE PAPER The Waste Paper Stock Inventory Position of Mills is Still Critical 1. The shortage of Waste Paper may-jeopardise our whole war offort. 2. The mills are operating from hand to mouth--they require 20,000 tons of Waste Paper per month -- hence this appeal. 3. This is an essential part of the war effort on the home front. PAPER CONTAINERS DOING A WAR JOB The time was, and not so very long ago, when a paper box was merely a container designed to convey its tents to destination without scuff or breakage. To-day--Paper Containers Have-Gone to War. Paper containers, in addition to their hundreds of wen known uses for military and civilian purposes, have also been designed for the following uses : 1. To be thrown overboard for landing operations, floating to shore or sinking to the bottom to be recovered at low tide. 2. To provide protetcion for medical kits, Blood Plasma, emergency tions, gas masks, and for hundreds of Naval, Army and Air Force uses 3. Paper parachutes, strong enough to convey to earth precious food and supplies for isolated men and units, are now in use on many fronts. 4. Containers made from treated paper capable of forming a package liner that will contain and hold high volatile solvent vapors such as naptha and benzine. 5. Treated paper electrical conduts ere replacing metal and wood. 6. Paper containers for shells, grenades, fuses, etc. 7. Paper containers for dehydrated foods, saving the cargo space of a ship. Beef, potatoes, eggs, milk, etc., when dehydrated and compressed and packed in paper contaniers (cartons), means a saving of about 85% of cargo space. 8. Paper containers for canisters tre used for transporting powder in shell-filling plants, the T.N.T. tubes and shell components. 9. Ack-ack shells, airplane propellers, bombs, require paperboard containers. The Milions of these Paper Containers sent overseeas cannot be returned for re-use.

This is required in the manufacture arships, the production of parachutes and the protective covering of aircraft. It is used in the making of adhesive tape for sealing shells and for waterproofing shells, belt coils and machinery. War plants also need Mackie. Miss*, it. to wax cables and pulleys to improve insulation. In spite of last year's j large honey production, the amount of beeswax produced was insufficient 1o meet Canada's requirements and the Prices Board is endeavoring to lend every encouragement to the honey industry this year.
