The bureau of aircraft production
Of the war department has requested
the Red Cross to give publicity to the
vital need of walnut for use in max
ing airplane propeller blades and gun
stocks. ALI chapters in central divis-
Ion are requested to see that this Need
is made known as widely as possible
by posting this notice on their bulletin
boards and including this item in the
Red Cross news printed in local news
papers.
Walnut has been found to be the
best wood for propeller blades and gun
stocks. Trees are found throughout
the United States, usually in small
groups, and the government wants in
formation as to their location, to give
the owners an opportunity to demon
strate their patriotism In a practical
way.
A part only of the lumber from each
tree can be used and the government
cannot buy the trees direct from the
owners. The trees should be sold to
q sawmill having a government con-
tract for lumber for propeller blades
and gun stocks. Il owners of trees
dc not know of such mills, they may
write to the Ordnance Department,
Procurement Division, Small Arms
Section, Washington, D. c., giving num-
Der and location of the trees, and they
will be notified how to dispose of them.
Emphasize the fact that information
IN regard to small number of trees
is most valuable. The government

experiment. A herd of more than 600

camel driver employed by the author,
"that we couldn't get along without the
