InOreaon
With already a total of 31,000
tons of scrap Iron and steel sent
Into war production activities,
Oregon again is "going over the
top," said Claude I, Sersanous,
Portland, state salvage commit
tee chairman, on his return to
Oregon from attending a west
ern state conference of the war
production board, bureau of In
dustrial conservation, last week
In San Francisco,
"All of Oregon's 36 counties
are organized now," contiuued
Sersanous, "with chairmen and
committees actively engaged in
this great endeavor, with more
than 1,500 total membership."
"Oregon is leading the way In
being the first state in the west
to have all Its county organiza
tions completed and function
ing. Among those states repre
sented at the conference were
California, Washington, Idaho,
Qftah, Montana, Wyoming, Colo
rado, Nevada, New Mexico and
' Arizona.
f. "One of the main features of
the conference was the declara
tion that the west coast would
see a decided change in so-called
'auto graveyards' within the
next 60 days with millions of
tons of available scrap metals
going into war production from
those sources.
, "It was announced that Uncle
Sam has taken over his third
auto grave yard in the country,
the last being that of the Lenox
Motor company of Colmar Man
or, Md. The owner refused to
sell his jalopies and rejected of
fers which the bureau consider
ed fair, as was the case in two
other instances since the sal
vage program got under way."
"Scrap purchasers," said Ser-
anous, "have been instructed
report to the bureau any in
stances of refusal to sell by
grave yard operators. In such
cases, an investigation is made
and where it is deemed neces
sary, requisitioning procedure
follows. When the bureau is
forced to resort to its requisi
tioning power, the entire stock
of cars, including all parts, is
taken from the auto grave yard
operator or dealer.
