Orngon FEBERRL BEPOBIT INSURANCE CORPORATION NK 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! JUNK MAKES FIGHTING WEAPONS One old radiator will provide scrap steel need­ ed for seventeen JO calibre rifles. u One old lawn mower will help make six 3-inch shells. One useless old tire will pro­ vide as much rubber as is used in 12 gas masks. V $ V V V V V V One old shovel will help make 4 hand grenades. MATERIALS NEEDED Scrap iron and steel. Other metals of all kinds.
