needed for War
“ What's it good for?"
"Guns, tanks, and maybe
part of a plane"
In the attics and cellars of
homes, in garages, tool sheds,
and on farms, is a lot of Junk
which is doing no good where it
is, but which is needed at once to
help smash the Japs and Nazis.
Scrap iron and steel, for example. Old
radiators, lengths of pipe, refrigerators,
garbage pails, broken garden tools...
It may be rusty, old “scrap” to you,
but it is actually refined steel, with
most impurities removed—and can be
quickly melted with new metal in the
form of pig iron to produce highest
quality steel for our war machines.
Even in peacetime our Nation relied
on scrap to provide about 50% of the
raw material for steel. Now production
of steel has gone up, up, UP, until
today America is turning out as much
steel as all the rest of the world com
bined.
But unless at least 6,000,000 addi
tional tons of scrap steel is uncovered
promptly, the full rate of production
cannot be attained or increased; the
necessary tanks, guns, and ships cannot
lie produced.
The rubber situation is also critical. In
spite of the recent rubber drive, there is
a continuing need for large quantities of
scrap rubber. Also for other waste mate
rials and metals like brass, copper, zinc,
lead, and tin.
America needs your active assistance
in rounding up these materials. The
Junk which you collect is bought by
industry from scrap dealers at estab
lished, government controlled prices.
Will you heJp?
First—collect all your waste material
and pile it up.
Then—sell it to a Junk dealer, give it
to a charity, take it yourself to the
nearest collection point, or get in touch
with your Local Salvage Committee.
If you live on a farm, consult your
County War Board or your farm im
plement dealer.
Throw YOUR scrap into the fight!
