"Get in the Scrap'' has become the by-word of some 6,400 buttlers of carbonated beverages located Ill 2.eOO communities throughout the nation. according to John J. Riley, secretary of the American Bottlers of Carbonated Beverages, trade as- sociation of the soft drink indus try. In order to coordinate the continuous efforts of the industry in various war programs, he said, A War Activities Committee of soft dring manufacturers has been ap- pointed by Edward Wagner, of Cincinnati, Ohia, president of the Association. Participation of the industry in the National Salvage Program is now in full swing.
 The committee recommends that bottlers contributee all unusable tools, machinery, and equipment in their plants as well as to collect scrap from the more than mil- lion retail outlets of soft drinks.
 "Our industry" MT. Riley said. lis working towards a goal of 6O,- 900 tons of scrap metal for Uncle Sam. a substantial proportion of which has been collected in recent weeks. Each bottling plant has been asked to weigh the scrap and to re- port to our committee how much of each type of metal is collected. tI is promptly delivered to scrap dealers so 1t may be put into the flow of metals to war industries.
 Besides actively engaging in filling this self-imposed goal the carbonated beverage industry is assisting in other local salvage

 VOFONTAHREs GETTING
 PRACTICAL TRAINING
 Captain Terre Is training her volontalres along scientific lines. She thinks it necessary that tele- nfonists should know how % re- nnir their own lines as we'll as fut throuahr calls; that lorry driv@ ers should be able to repair their vehicles; that cooks should be capable of organizing kitchens un- der dlficult conditions; that nurses should be prepared for all emer- gencies. - = we oil return we shall have to be ready to do Q great many things for our people," she reasons. They will be tired, ailing; their spirits will need nursing as well as their bodies. I am going to put the girls through psychology courses as well. We shall have to tread carefully. they will all have suffered so much" Most of the girls hear nothing from their families for months on enas others do not even know whether their parents are still alive. Only the hope that some day soon they, with all who ilgns for France, will go back gives them renewed courage.

 At the volontaires' London head- quarters-a mansion once owned by a French duke--a map of France almost covers one of the walls of what was once a magnificent recep- tion room. Every large town is rep- resented by an illustration cut out from old travel folders, picture post cards or magazines.
 Every girl helped to make the map, which was another of Cap tain Terre's ideas. Simultaneously she started card-index file of her volunteers. Each card indicates, besides the usual details of age and service, the place of birth, previ- ous occupations and towns where the holder had worked, other dis tricts with which she is well ac- uuainted and what 'patois" she knows. When this index is com- pleted, each girl will be posted to a definite district or town, there

drives by contributing men and hauling facilitie to help collect scrap" he added.
 In addition to collection of metal scrap the soft drink manufacturers are also taking every possible measure to conserve rubber and gas by cutting down the number of deliveries and shortening routes.
 'This conservation activity of the industry, which was started volun- tarily, has already had pronounced results" MT. Riley declared. Monthly consumption of gasoline by the industry since early in the year has been cut one-third from that used in l94l. with 6 propor- tionate cut in monthly truck mile age. This has meant a saving of the rubber used in approximately ten million miles that have been cut from sales-delivery routes each month the program has been in force"

 f.ondon--When Fighting France reclalns its homeland there will be brave women as we'll as brave men in the ranks ot the dellverers, Here In London now, training for their important roles on the day of liberation, are 2SB French women known as the Volontaires ErRncalses.
 Not only are they assisting their husbands and brothers in the forces of Gen. do uaulle, but they are equlpping themselves to solve the many problems which the transition from serfdoom to free@ dom will bring.
 The preparation for that difEicult period of adjustment is the bril- liant idea of SS year old Helene Terre, who commands the Volon- taires Francalses with the rank of captain. Captain Terre Is well ac- uuaintcd with what France will need and just how women will be able usefully to help in the rebirth of their country.
 At the time of the equalization she was head of women's unit at the front in Northern France, and did not reach England until August, l94l.
 On her arrival here, through some misunderstanding, she was jailed as an undesirable and it took three months to obtain her re- lease. It was then that General de Gaulle. leader of the Fighting French, put her in charge of what is sometimes called the Women's Foreign Legion.
 FRENCH COLoNlALS SWELL VOLONTAIRES' RANKS
 Not all of the volontalres are refugees. Many were living in Eng land at the time of Frances collapse learning English, at school or in families: working in luxury shops as modists and designers, as em- broideresses and lingerie makers; serving as teachers and govern- eSses.
 Few Frenchwomen have been able to fly from life under Na1 rule but at least fifty have come from her colonies, from New Cele- donia and Tahiti; from Martinique, Madagascar and Algeria, and from Saint Pierre at Miquelon.
 Enrolment is voluntary. The volontaires are nominally attached to the ATS Auxiliary Territorial Service) and go through the same initial training, later to be directed to specified jobs.
 Some are doing office work al the Fighting French headquarters others act as drivers for staff ofti- cers and do most of the lorry'
