Carl, pf MU The most serious problem con fronting the war effort today is the shortage of steel. Scrap metal is es sential to the manufacture of steel. It is estimated that there are millions of tons of scrap that can be turned over to the steel mills before the end of the year. The War Production Board has long since set up an elaborate nation-wide salvage organization under four di visions. This organization has pro duced a vast amount of scrap, but so imminent is the need that far greater effort must be made to gather the scrap at once. To that end Donald M. _1_ Nelson, chief of the War Production Board, has turned to the newspapers of the country to campaign for scrap ’ metal. It was estimated soine time ago that during the last six months of 1042 17,000,000 tons of scrap metal would be needed to keep the steel , furnaces going. Oregon’s quota tor • that period of 100,000 tons. —i Beginning today every householder Is urged to search his home, his gar age, his bam and his yard for scrap metal. Every farmer is urged to do the same. Arrangements will be made by the local salvage committees tor its collection. Sponsored by the State Salvage Committee, general salvage section, aq amount of $2000 in war savings bonds has been set aside as prize awards for Oregon counties. The terms of this prize offer, as announced by State Chairman Claude I. Ser- sanous are: . One thousand dollars in bonds (present value) to the Oregon county collecting the greatest per capita poundage—the prize to be turned over to a charity daaignated by the coun- ty salvage committee. Five hundred dollars in bonds (present value) to the Oregon coun- ty with next highest per capita-av erage—this prize also to go to a suit able charity. • Three hundred dollars in bonds ‘ (present value) to the business firm which gives or sells the largest amount of scrap metal. One hundred fifty dollars in bonds (present value) to the individual— man or woman, boy or girl—giving or selling the largest amount of scrap metal. " Fifty dollars in bonds or stamps (present value) to the unit of a boys' or girls’ organization turning in the largest amount of scrap metal. This Is Not Just Another Drive. This is to be a “treasure hqnt” in the real sense of the word; a “treasure hunt” designed to provide the war effort with its greatest need at a time when it needs it most, if ultimate victory is Jo be ours. —11 — .................................................... them at his home at the Bay Saturday.
