Tomorrow will find the youth of
America doing their part in war
work. They will begin building 50,-
900 accurate scale models of Allied
and enemy warplanes for the Army,
Navy and civilian defense forces.

the timber holdings and stocks of

Sometimes buyers failed to COM

foreclosed, and made sales again.

buyers to effect reorganizations in

the spruce division was changed to

tape and to give it the flexibility

Workers and Farmers
Protected by Ration
OF Rubber Boots, Etc.
Six Types Are Now RatiOned;
Price Rises on Rubber Footwear
Prevented by Regulation

Workers or farmers who must wade
through sleet and snow and mud in
doing their war production jobs are
given double-barreled protection by
recent Office of Price Administration
regulations, Walter w. Dawson, Chair
man of the local War Price and Ra-
tioning Board, announced.
There were rationed, starting Oc-
tober 18th, six types of rubber boots
and rubber work shoes worn, accord
ing to the OPA, by war construction
workers, farmers, food professors and
packing house workers; iron and steel
workers, men in power plants water
sanitary services and chemical plants;
metal workers, men working in ship
yards, mines and refineries, and others
essential to the war effort.
Workers or purchasing agents for
companies who customarily supply
boots to their employees and retain
title thereto, may secure certificates
which entitle them to buy the ra-
toned footwear from their War Price
and Rationing Board at Oakland
Special emphasis was placed by the
Board spokesman on the fact that
worn-out footwear, being replaced
must be turned in for salvage
Second type Of OPA protection is
in the all-important field of price.
Price rises on rubber footwear made
previous to February / are already
prevented by the General Maximum
Price Regulation. Under the new regu-
lation prices are firmly nailed down
on all the increasingly popular Victory
Line of waterproof rubber footwear,
designed under a WPB conservation
order to preserve rubber and protect
the wearer. Prices must be publicly
posted where the buyer may easily
read them
While rationing affects only heav-
ier, work-type rubber boots and rub
Der shoes, price controls cover every
thing from a child's two snap rubber
gaiter to mans hip boot, it was said.

LAST Minute
PLANS GIVEN IN
SCRAP DRIVE
Instructions Announced T is
Morning for Oakland and Vicin-
ity by Mayor L. NJ. Fraley

Last minute plans are under way
for the collection of scrap metal, rub
Der and other materials on the scrap
rally dates, Monday and Tuesday, De-
tober II and 10. A gigantic effort is
being made to get every little bit of
valuable material to some central
point on those dates,
For those in Oakland and vicinity
the following instructions were an
nounced this morning by Mayor L,
NJ. Fraley.
Anyone wanting to sell their scrap
may take their material to Whites
Garage, Third street.
Anyone wanting to donate their
scrap will take their material to the
lot on which the air raid spotter post
is now located, on Third street, adj
jacent to the Coca-Cola plant Any
money derived from the sale of this
material will go to the American lie
gion. for expenses of maintaining the
spotter post.
Anyone having scrap material and
no way to deliver it to the stations
may call 215, City Hall, when a town
truck will be sent.
Members of the Oakland girls All
club will distribute handbills on Fri
day and Saturday stressing the i'm
portance and necessity of the drive
and urging the cooperation of all peo-
pie of the community.
For collection Of scrap in other
areas a list of garages and service
stations were named last week by the
County Salvage committee, Clarence
Leighton and Ray Teets, Oakland,
chairmen.
The aim is to make concerted
drive on the two rally dates, so that
the county may produce its quota for
the war effort quickly. The American
Legion is having the cannon on the
court house dismantled and sold for
scrap. Mr.. Leighton said this morn
ing that about three tons of scrap had
been brought in voluntarily thus far.
Those in charge of the drive issued
the following statement: "Thc drive
is squarely up to you. Scrap sIackcrs
can lose this war. The mills need
scrap to make the steel to 90 across
the sea as ships, tanks and guns. They
need it now. Unless you get to work,
unless you go into your basement and
your attic and rout out the junk that's
there, and talk about it to your
friends and neighbors, our troops are
not going to get what they need, If
you're a heartsick wife. mother or
sweetheart you'd do lot to give that
boy a better chance to get back safe.
Well then-do it! Someone's life is in
your hands,"
