SCRAP WILL BE NEEDED
ALL DURING WAR
The Nyssa scrap metal harvest committee,
with the assistance of local residents, have
completed a successful campaign, but the peo
ple should realize that the war can be won only
if the flow of scrap metal to the steel mills is
continued.
The steel is needed for armor plate to protect
our boys from bombs and bullets. Steel is need
ed for weapons to1 help them do the job that
must be done before they can come home again.
Fifty per cent of all new steel is made of
scrap and our mills now have only enough
scrap in sight to last another 30 days. What
happens after that depends on all of us. If pro
duction falls and you have not done your part
will you rest easy?
From now on, everybody should save every
bit of material that they think can be salvaged
for use in the war effort. The united nations
have the Japs on the run and have at least tem
porarily stalled the German war machine and
part of their success is due to the great product
ive capacity of the United States. Let’s do our
part to keep up that production.

deal of idleness. Men were not employed at
full capacity, but had plenty of time to visit
friends in various parts of the yard, to do over
again work which had been done before, to
look busy by poring over blueprints of which
the workman knew nothing, to mill around the
exit gates several minutes before closing time.
These are serious indictments, especially as
the reporter declared that he was convinced the
condition was not local—that it existed in other
shipyards in the Puget Sound and in the ship
yards of Oregon and California. Also that it
existed in other war industries, not only on the
Pacific Coast but elsewhere in the United
States.
There are times, of course, when yards and
factories are kept waiting for necessary parts.
In these circumstances perhaps men who frank
ly play checkers cannot be criticized. They are
ready to go ahead with the work at any mom
ent. Top-notch management, however, might
be able to devise useful work to fill such in
terims. Unions in many cases prevent such sen
sible use of time and manpower.
Two things about such waste become appal
ling. One is deterioration of character of the
men themselves, idle and cheating their coun
try. The other is the waste of lives on battle-
fronts because needed materials do not arrive
in time.
