Board Acts TO Safeguard
U. 5. Aluminium Supply

Three steps designed to reduce
the amount of aluminium ana mag
nesium used for non-defense pur-
poses and to safeguard the Nations
supply of those vital metals nave
been taken by the Prlorltles d.
vision of the Office of Production
Management.
The division urged that mag
nesium producers allocate all tnelr
stocks to defense industries, that
sirplane companies return all scrap
aluminium to the original source
of supply and that industrial users
of aluminium in non-defense flelds
use substitutes, including plastlcS,
whenever possible.
Among the factors making these
procedures necessary, the o. P. M.
explained, was the cutting OF OF the
aluminium supply from SWltzerlano
and a lack of the development OF
expected power sources as rapidly
as had been anticipated.
In a letter to airplane companies
z. r. Stettinius, jr., o. P. M. dl-
rector of priorities, said:
Under the necessities OF the
present situation. every economy in
the use of aluminium becomes nee
essary and all measures for salvag-
ing existent supplies becomes i'm
perative.
Under these circumstances, the
PrioritieS Division, on recommended
ton of the Aluminium and Mag
nesium Priority Committee, desires
your cooperation in suggesting
what in your opinion would be the
most practical and desirable pro-
cedure for handling scrap.
Furthermore, until the Priorltles
Division can determine what in its
opinion is desirable policy in this
matter. it requests that all high
strength alloy sheet scrap be held
for later return to the source from
which the original supply was
shipped to you"
