Surplus Military
Stockpiles Offer
Variety of Goods
Washington (U,P.) If you
have need for an airplane fuse
lage or two, several miles of
railroad track or an assortment
of bags, barrels, baskets, or egg
crates, you should notify your
Uncle Sam.
Chances are he can find them
for you among his stocks of mili
tary surplus.
These stocks, ' which become
surplus as a result of wear and
tear and changing military needs
are made available to the public
by the armed services through
property disposal offices located
at various military installations
in 25 states, the District of Col
umbia and overseas.
The Department of Defense
continuously reviews its scat
tered assets to assure that only
property needed now or in the
foreseeable future is kept on
hand. Surpluses are catalogued
by the disposal offices and in
formation as to their nature is
forwarded to prospective civil
ian buyers. This property may
be available through the various
disposal offices.
f Military surplus is classified
usable and salvage or scrap
and waste. A buyer, however,
may consider these stocks dif
ferently than the armed services.
Many usuable items are to be
found in both classifications, and
those in the first are graded ac
cording to a condition code.
A prospective buyer who is
listed with the disposal offices
is informed of the types and
condition of surpluses to be
made available in advance of
sale in his area. He also is noti
fied of the time and place of
sale and invited to submit a bid
for the materials he may want,
if bidding is to be the procedure
used for disposal. In any case,
whether disposal is to be under
taken through bidding, auction
or retail sale, he is mailed a
descriptive catalogue giving him
full information on the sale.
A person wishing to get on
property disposal bidders' lists
simply writes to a military dis
posal office in his geographical
area, giving his name and ad
dress and listing the types of
surplus he would like to buy. A
list of the location of all disposal
offices may be obtained from
any armed services installation
or by writing to the Department
of Defense, Washington, D. C.
