Scrap Metal Drive
Finally Begins to
Show Results
154 tons already on
way, with 1000 +.
more to come

Seems to take lot of prodding to
get people in this community steam
ed up oveer project, but when they
do get hot, they surely go to town.
The scrap drive started nearly a
month ago, and until this week
there was practically no tonnage
brought in. However. during the
past week, the churches, the schools,
the Kiwanis club and other groups
have begun to bring it in and this
morning Frank Mason reported a
total of 154 tons already shipped
from this point. : rs
The five cars already on their
way is put a small portion of the
scrap still available in the commun-
tity, Mason says. However, he is
beginning to get line on it and
says that he is confident that there
is still a thousand tons of metal
scrap still lying around unused on
the various farms in the area. N
Farmers are urged to bring in a
jag every time they come to town
Neeighborhood scrap piles are being
established around town. Church
folk are gathering their own private
piles, seeking for cash prizes in addi
ton to the salvage values. Tn
schools are gathering their own pile
and the proceeds viii go to tn
several school organizations. 9th
ers, largely, are donating their scral
to the Red Gross and the USO dunn
piles.
Tuesday, at the regular meetint
of the Kiwanis club, c. s. Knowle
offered the use of two compan,
trucks for hauling scrap, as well a
a hoist for handling the heavie
pieces. Pres. Lawrence Scott ha

Defense Jobs
Taking Farmers;
Not Military !. :.
Report shows but few
drafted; need more
cooperation

Benton county farmers are sure
getting the breaks, records from the
local selective service indicate. From
a cross section taken from the files
in the local offices, it shows that but
one farmer out of 80 selectees has
been taken into the services thus far.
On the other hand, % out of 80
have been taken from the so-called
defense industries, according to q
report made this noon at the cham
Der of commerce meeting by Jay
Perry, chairman of the local board
Wheat farmers have not been listed
among the classes entitled to defer
ment, Perry stated only those farm
ers who devote their entire time
to the raising of essential foods be.
ing classed for special favor.
Mr.. Perry's report was made fol-
lowing complaint made last week al
the chamber meeting that too many
local farms were being abandoned
Too many places were being allowed
to reach state where single years
cultivation would not return then
to productivity. The presumption
was that the military was taking
them. However, investigation ha!
shown that the majority of those
who have left their farms have gone
into the defense industries rather
than the military service.
Mr.. Wilson, as chairman of the
Benton County War Board, was alsc
called upon. He backed up the state.
ments made by Mr.. Perry and added
that if the war were to continue
for several years as has been freely
predicted, he was of the opinion
that much greater cooperative. eff.
fort would have to he made, both o.
machinery and labor and expected
that labor would be modified If tn,
country was to be adequately fed.
