there is immediate intensification of
scrap collection programs"
Mr.. Cabot commented that Presi-
dent Roosevelt's recent announce
ment that Government requisition
might be necessary unless the people
accelerated their scrap collecting
was indicative OF the vital urgency
of the situation"
The hardest task confronting
newspapers and salvage committees,
he conceded, is providing facilities
for the actual collection.
Such facilities must be provided
locally, he emphasized.
Truck Restrictions Do Not Apply.
This rise in receipts, indicating
the corollary of an increase in ac-
tual collection of scrap, has been
accomplished during a period when
normal sources of scrap have been
lost or greatly diminished"
WPB also issued a statement to-
day reminding truck owners volun-
teering to collect scrap metal that
they would not be penalized by any
wartime restrictions for donating
their services.
1t was pointed out that under a
general permit issued by the Office
of Defense Transportation July 20,
private and contract carriers trans
porting rubber or metal scrap are
not required to reduce mileage or
to offer empty trucks for rent or
lease on return trips.
Neither gasoline rationing nor any
other transportation regulations will
apply to scrap collectors, it was ex-
planned.

newest 35,OO0-ton battleships, the
Arson and the Howe, now are ready
for action.
In a speech at Sheffield yesterday,
Mr.. Alexander declared that all
Britains losses in capital ships, air
craft carriers and cruisers had been
matched by new construction.
Britain's naval losses in the last 81
months have included four capital
ships, four aircraft carriers, %
cruisers, between 80 and 80 de-
stroyers and 38 submarines, Mr.. AL
exander said.
The naval correspondent of the
Daily Herald estimated that around
200 destroyers, including the so over
age United States ships, had been
added to the Royal Navy since the
war began. He also said it was
known that 200 corvettes were in
service with the Royal Navy.
Asks Let-up in Demands.
Mr.. Alexander asked yesterday
that those who are demanding
Allied action in Western Europe
slet those in authority be the
judges of what should be done and
at what moment
1--WE are doing all we possibly
can do, but it would not be helping
an ally to take action which might
lead to disaster to our own forces"
he said.
Britain, he said, had lost "con-
siderable number" of destroyers.
They have been more than re-
placed, he added, while in the cate
gories of corvettes and landing
craft the British strength has been
actually increased.

thht the Germans have used new
Heinkel 1T four -motored, two-pro-
pellered heavy bomber over Britain
recently.
Unofficial sources have reported
the appearance, also, of pressure
cabined Junker 86-P bomber recon-
naissance plane with a ceiling above
10000 feet.
Regarded as significant feature
common to the JU-86-P, the new
FW-190 and the ME-109-G was the
fact that they all were reported
capable of operating above $4,000
feet-out of anti-aircraft range.
Sources here said the Heinkel 1T
can operate at about $4,000 feet on
: bombing missions, and that this was
about the height from which the
Flying Fortresses of the United
States Army Air Force bombed
German-held territory in Europe
successfully by daylight,
Can Carry Heavy Load.
The Heinkel 1T is equipped to
carry the heaviest load of any Ger
man bomber ever to fly over Britain,
indicating the Germans are copying
the big bomb-carrying trend in the
Raj while following the American
lead IN srb-stratosphere operation.
While frequent bad weather over
Britain limits the use of such
extreme high altitude bombers,
which must have clear weather to
operate, their extreme operational
height makes interception by fighters
difficult. 1t takes approximately IS
minutes for fighter to climb to
10000 feet, by which time the
bomber can be some go miles away.
Against the new model German
fighters the United States Army Air
Corps has to offer the Republic
Thunderbolt and the Lockheed P-38
Lightning, both SO far untried in
this theater of the war Despite
the new model German motors, air
experts here said that neither the
ME-109-G nor the FW-19O touches
the power of the Thunderbolt's S
2,000-horsepower aircooled engine.
Effect on Raids Minimized.
Experts here agreed that the new
German fighters were not likely to
have any profound effect on either
RAF night bombing nor the Flying
Fortress day raids.
The present FW-190s easily oper-
ate at Fortress height, but have
been beaten off repeatedly by the
superior gun power of the four
motored American hombers.
British Spitfires still claim con-
troll of the air over the invasion
coast, and the Raj has unan-
nounced new models of its own.
The RATS latest Spitf1re, Mark
&c, is armed with four 20-mm. can

machine guns to meet the challenge
of the Nazis' four cannon Focke
Wulf 100 plane, it was reported re-
lfably.
The new German plane also car
ries two machine guns, but British
observers said the new Spitfre
would outgun it because of heavier
caliber cannon.
Despite its heavier weight, the
new Spitfire was said to have re-
tanned its speed and still was able
to fight at 7-mile height.

Week S Steel Output
OF 1,645,700 Tons
Is Indicated
Decline in Activity
Attributed PortIy to
Scrop Shortage
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, Sept. 21.--The
American Iron and Steel Institute
estimated today the steel industry
would operate this week at 962 per
cent of capacity with an indicated
production of 1,645, 700 tons.
Last weeks estimated production
was 97.2 per cent or 1852 300 tons of
steel.
The drop in activity was attributed
partly to a shortage of scrap metal
in some producing districts with sus-
pension of some furnaces for repairs
an additional factor.
A month ago the industry operated
at 97.3 per cent, turning out 1854 500
tons. A year ago, with a smaller
capacity, the steel mills worked at
96.8 per cent with production at l.
500 300 tons.
