Frequently, whole lots of surplus have been labeled ‘Yunk” and have disappeared. Here's how the war surplus program started in Indiana and other states: With the end of the war, the United States found itself with a lot of equipment, clothes and materials on hand. ‘ A program was started to give “without charge” war surplus materials to the various states, providing the states, in turn, make the surplus available to tax-supported or non-profit and tax-exempt’ schools, colleges or health centers . “if

Buy Without Cost

Nearly every college in Indiana has taken part in the program. Many private and public schools have also bought, “without cost,” valuable war surplus, including the Bunker Hill S¢hool of Aeronatutics, a school that never had a pupil yet had “purchased” war surplus valued in excess of $5 million alone. The only costs involved in the great majority of war surplus transactions handled by the states are the costs of handling the ma[terials and equipment. . Some of the surplus comes from | Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois. |Other government surplus comes [from as near as Ft.
