LACK OF SCRAP |

Nation's Stockpiles Fall as Salvage Drives Prove

into consideration the fact that the industry can .produce at-a rate of more than the Whecrefical 100 per cent.’ In July the steel rate was only 94.5 per cent, due almost exclusively to ‘$crap shortage.. Given enough scrap, the nation’s mills should have attained 1025. per cent of capacity or higher, according to Iron Age, steel trade Journal. “Had the. scrap been available, at least 5005000 tons more steel could

have been produced,” Iron Age reported. ; Watching reaction to their advertised appeals, steel companies found that scrap collections were stimulated most in small communi-

"| ties, while large cities for the most

part were disappointments. Politics Scored

Politics, loosely organized salvage programs, inefficient collection methods and apparent public disinterest were among the reasons assigned for the failure of big cities to produce as expected. Moreover, the quality of scrap ordinarily gathered in house-to-

efficiency of steel maces, it was said.

comes from abandoned machinery, bridges and buildings. The trouble has been that price ceilings and the expense of -dismantling structures and machines kept this type from the market. And this is where the new Waste Materials, Inc, enters the ‘picture.

Seek Old Rails

Waste Materials, Inc., will be permitted to pay more than the maximum prices set by OPA in order to bring out material the commercial dealers can’t afford to touch. It will go after abandoned rails, structural steel from unused buildings, old equipment from mines and plants—heavy material that mills need most. It will turn over the metal to the Metals Reserve Co. which will allocate the scrap to steel plants throughout the country. The new collection agency is setting up headquarters in Pittsburgh and will have regional offices in strategic cities, charged with the task of acquiring not less than five million tons of scrap by the end of this year.

Need for Furnaces Is Declared Urgent

By RUTH FINNEY Times Special Writer

CLEVELAND, Sept. 1.—“Give us steel and we’ll produce more,” war industries say from coast to coast. “Give us blast furnaces and we'll produce the steel,” says the third largest producer of iron and steel in ‘the United States, the : Republic

| Steel Corp.

Vice President Charles M. White, int charge of operations in all Republic's 65 plants and mines, puts new blast furnaces ahead of scrap

‘in urgency.

Twenty-six were to have been built; nine were cancelled when industrial curtailment was decided on to make more scarce materials available for immediate manutacture of armament.

Urges More Furnaces

Mr. White believes the 17 others should be finished with all possible speed, “Even though it. take steel to do it.” The new blast furnaces would compensate for the dwindling supply of scrap and make possible

Jan additional six or seven million

tons of production. Mr. White is one executive who does not blame Washington for the present confusion over steel. He doesn’t think it surprising that the army and navy have not been able to furnish accurate estimates of their total needs, with fighting spread over so many fronts in every corner of the world. Nor does he blame the war production board for having been unable to obtain a complete picture of supply and demand. He thinks it has: been doing a creditable job. Mr. White doubts that there is a black market in steel. Youngstown district,” he says, “lack| po of 75 tons of structural steel has held back -completion of our new furnaces a month. Wu make steel ourselves, we are on good terms with our competitors, we have fine relations with the warehousemen, but we haven't been able to find where to get that 75 tons that would help us to increase steel capacity.” Mr. White believes that Jesse

Sweeney was Dick's squadron commander and flew in Dick’s plane and the colonel had a dog, “Connie,” who seemed to know that Dick liked dogs. So whenever their plane took off, “Connie” would crawl back in Dick’s gunnery cockpit, which was just barely large enough for one man. And snuggled together, Dick and “Connie” and the colonel flew off - to the battle of the Coral sea. Early in the engagement a squadron of Jap fighter planes took after their bomber. Dick and the gunner just below him knocked out four of them in short order, each being Credited with two planes each.

BUT THE OTHER Jap planes poured lead into the bomber. The gunner below Dick was killed but little “Connie” stopped all the slugs which were marked for Dick—all except one, and -that just grazed Dick’s thigh. When they returned to base, Dick. was awarded the distinguished flying medal and ‘“Connie” was buried with full mili--tary honors. And on “Connie’s” breast was laid the medal Dick had - won, because the ‘dog had saved his life. At that time he wrote his mother: “I always carried that picture

They dropped 10 tons of bombs among buildings, installations, dispersed airplanes and enemy troops. Gen.

Not a single enemy plane challenged the allied planes. Boeing flying fortresses raided Buna, the base for the Japanese troops: who had pushed into the Kckoda area.

Adolf Hitler opened the winter relief campaign with a proclamation issued at his headquarters. “If German soldiers make the heaviest sacrifices in this greatest struggle of all time,” he said, “if their privations can hardly be imagined, the home front is obliged this year. more than ever before to make the maximum sacrifice.” Possibly significant of things to come was the following broadcast by the Berlin radio: “An official appeal to tle civilian population to be on guard to the utmost and to help in taking hold of enemy fliers who have bailed out .or made forced landings is published
