HOW SCRAP IRON and STEEL co TO war
The steel used in machines is made by melting
together
1. Pig iron (about 5O95)
2. Scrap generated in the steel plant in the
process of steelmaking (about 2525)
3. Scrap purchased from outside Junk sources
(about 2535)
We have plenty of iron make the pig iron needed
But furnaces operate faster when there plenty of
to mix with the pig iron.
This so-caled scrap which goes into the furnaces
make the steel for tanks ships and guns actually refined
steelwith most impurities removed Some of the finest
quality stees made 1000 from scrap.
The iron and steel scrap which you collect is bought by
the steel mills from scrap dealers at established
controlled prices

crisis exists in our production program which can
be solved only by the patriotic cooperation of the
American people.
We are faced with serious shortage of steel scrap

The steel industry operates the basis of half and
haH-about so per cent metal from pig iron and so
per cent ren,elted scrap metal
Therefore, about so per cent of every tank, every
ship, submarine and gun made of scrap
iron and steel.
The steel industry has been rapidly stepping up its
producton-from 81 100000 tons in 1910 to record
breaking 80 900 600 tons in 1941 Production in 1912
is already ahead of 941 but need get production
up to the ndusrys full capacity of go 600 900 tonsa
total equal output of theTest of the world combined
This volume of production cannot be attained or in
creased unless additional 6000 900 tons of scrap iron
and steel is obtained promptly.
We are faced with the fact that steel furnaces
have been allowed cool down and that many of them
are operating from day to day and hand mouth due
only to the lack of scrap.
The rubber situation is also critical In spite of the
recent rubber drive there continuing need for large
quantities of scrap rubber.
We are collecting every possible pound of scrap from
the factories arsenas and shpyards speeding up
the flow of material from automobile graveyards; we
