Evans, is reason enough for

Salvage Much Lumber.

Salvaging of approximately 90
000,00 feet of lumber annually at
its Highland Park place is the Ford
Motor Company's contribution to
national forestry conservation.
Aside from the wood used in man
ufacturinG automobiles, the com
pany's requirements for packing and
shipping run into enormous figures
and to provide lumber for this pur-
pose every bit of scrap is utilized
through the salvage department,
even to the smallest possible pieces.
The little that can not be salvaged
is used for fuel.
The department. formed princi-
pally as a means of reducing waste,

An average Of 500 men are EN-
ployed, working in three S-hour
shifts, and the work includes the
operation of the lumber yard, saw
mills and the handling of all new and
old lumber for shipping.
While every day the Highland
Park plant uses more than 100000
feet of lumber in making shipments
the salvage department daily re
claims nearly 100000 feet of old
lumber and converts it into boxes.
crates, cleats, braces and other
pieces
Every factory unit in the Ford
organization constantly strives for
100 per cent lumber salvage At
the River Rouge plant, the Lincoln
plant and at all branch plants thru
out the country, every hit Of lumber
possible is used for shipping and
what remains is sent by the car
load and the truck load 10 Highland
Park where facilities permit the
utilization of smaller pieces than at
any other place and where salvaging
is carried to the extreme limit
Employees engaged in unpacking
incoming shipments are instructed
to carefully remove all boards with
as little damage as possible, thus
permitting the salvage department
to utilize them to the utmost.
