Show THE BEAVErt PRESS, FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1943 War Production Board Salvage Division Flashes "Green Light" DOFFS KHAKI FOR ROUGH WORK CLOTHES Sec(From B. L. Wood, Executive retary War Production Boara for Utah.) We have Just received a speoai freight rate from the railroads which allows us to ship tin cans to a detinning plant where the tin ifj removed and the residue material, which is steel. Is then shippped to the stee! mills. Prior to now we have been unable to set up schedules of collection and a program or saving tin cans In the state because of a high freight rate. This has now been reduced and the "green light" is on. I would like all county and city chairmen to immediately set up the following program in their localities: Arrange with the newspapers and radio, if you have one, to publicize the fact that tin cans are now going to be salvaged on the following basis: every time food is purchased from the store in which a tin can is involved, the purchaser must take an empty can to the grocery store in exchange for the new one. This is similar to the collapsible tube program. It will be ne necessary to contact the grocery store and have them provide a large box or container wherein the tin cans can be stored. The bottlers and brewers who are contacting the grocery stores eacli day will pick up the tin cans and bring them to a shipping point. Provo will handle the shipment of all tin cans col lected in the southern part or the state. It is estimated that you should secure 1,000 pounds of tin cans for every 1,000 population each, The average home conmonth. sumes betweeen 25 and 35 cans or food each month and in the past tin cans have been thrown in the garbage and taken to the city dumps. We must stop this procedure immediately and get people in the habit of saving and preparing the tin cans. Tin cans will be donated and no compensation will be received for any of the tin cans collected in the state. Please get behind this program immediately as we are anxious to get underway and show a fine collection for the month of March. Many people have been saving cans and should have quite an accumulation by this time, which should make our first month a big I, ' 1 v , ... f ' 4 1 i i ' si a. 1 ' i 1 Soldiers returned to do their part in war effort underground in Utah's mines.

S. military rank on February 11, directs the operations of the combined American, British and French armies in ousting the Axis from Africa. He was born in Tyler, Texas, in 1890, graduated from the U. S. Military Academy at West Point in 1915, and during the World War was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal for "his unusual leal, foresight and marked administrative ability" while commanding officer of the Tank Corps Training Center at Camp Colt, Gettysburg, Pa. He has filled many important posts in the War Department and while serving as Assistant Chief of Staff in charge of the operations division. Office of the Chief of Staff, Washington, D. C, in June, 1942, he was designated as commanding general of the European theater with headquarters in London. He organized and commanded the American forces in landing in North Africa November 8, 1942. Production of essential food, tat and fiber is being threatened by the increasing scarcity of sufficient farm machinery as well as farm labor, declares A. C. Jacquot, agricultural engineer at the Utah State Agricultural college. Several factors contribute t this critical situation, he pointa out. New machinery available lor armors In 1943 will be slightly In excess of 20 percent of the amount purchased is 1940 and 1941. This means that 80 percent of the old equipment which ordinarily woum be discarded, must be rebuilt and reconditioned, and this reconditioning is in addition to the repairs normally required. It is now up to the farmers to get their present equipment in shape for 1943 work, Mr. Jacquot asserts. Many old machines that would be discarded normally, can be dismantled and thoroughly In for worn or damaged spected parts, and should be repaired or replaced with new parts. Many worn and broken parts, normally discarded, can be repaired or reconditioned and used again. Farmers usually delay the buying or ordering of repairs until the machines are needed. However, Mr. Jacquot suggests that now it w'.ll be necessary to order parts three ar four months .before they are actually necessary, to assura their delivery on time. The agricultural engineer warns, however, that the hoarding of repair parts should be discouraged and eliminated since it further aggravates the present critical farm machinery situation. Skilled mechanics and repairmen are scarce in many of the rural areas, Mr. Jacquot recommends, therefore, that farmers make early arrangements for repair work requiring skilled mechanics and special shop equipment. In the meantime there are many check details that can be done by the farmers, he adds. by "Quite a discussion some of the boys were having down at lodge meeting bst night. Judge... you know, in the anteroom before the election of officers." "Sure was... and Herb was dead wrong. The alcoholic beverage industry does account for more taxes than any other industry. I checked the figures in rny office this morning. Why the figure on alcoholic beverages is pretty close to a billion and a half dollars a year. Lucky thing we haven't got prohibition or the government would have to make up the money some other way. And there's only one answer to that more taxes. You know what that would add up to?... about $25 more taxes a year for every man and woman in the country. In other words you and Sue would have to pay about $50 more in some form of tax. I guess about the only ones who'd come out ahead on that deal would be the bootleggers and gangsters." in CSm tfAkokolk Bantp Imduthin, tm |
