towns. the Tpaetloe has been to have the polls open for IA hours. from 6 q. m. to 6 p. m. The local govern mental authority. here the board Of aldermen, could extend the hours further.
 Extension of voting hours has been proposed as a means of giving war plant workers adequate oppor- tunity to vote. Many of them are on shifts which make it difficult for them to vote between 6 and 6.
 The same argument has been ad- vanced in support of a proposal that the local Democratic party extend its primary voting hours, now lim- ited to the period from 4:30 to 9:30 D. m. These hours make 1t impossible for any worker on the 3-11 shift to cast a primary vote.

FAT SALVAGE
 DRIVE OPENS
Housekeepers Ask to PrO= vide Essentials to Aid
 Men at Front

The fat salvage campaign got underway in Waterbury today, with butchers accepting and paying for containers of fat gathered by house. wives. The butchers will send 1t to rendering plants, where manufac- turing process will convert much of it into glycerin, vitally important war material of which there is now a shortage.
 Thomas O'Dea, chairman of the fat salvage drive, today emphasized that the fat should be the cooked variety and should be strained in such way as to make sure that all foreign substances are removed.
 The fat should be placed in wide-mouthed tin container and kept under refrigeration while being accumulated.
 The local goal is 2e,oo0 pounds of fat a month. Butchers have been instructed to pay an average price of four cents pound.
 The glycerin which will be made from the fats is used in making ex- plosives and several other important war items.
 The color and odor of the fat is unimportant MT. O'Dea said, as long as it is free from impurities.

steel furnaces have been allowed to cool down and that many of them are oper- ating from day to day and hand to mouth, due only to the lack of scrap. A. The rubber situation is also critical. In spite of the recent rubber drive, there is a continuing need for large quantities of scrap rubber.
 We are collecting every possible pound of scrap from the factories, arsenals and shipyards; we are speeding up the flow of material from automobile graveyards; we are tearing up abandoned railroad tracks and bridges, but unless we dig out an additional 6,0OO,0O0 tons of steel and great quantities of rubber, copper, brass, zinc and tin, our boys may not get all the fighting weapons they need in time.
 Fortunately, the material exists in Americas sgreat mineabovethe ground" There is enough iron and steel on farms alone, if used with other materials, to make:

HOW SCRAP IRON AND STEEL
 GO TO WAR

The steel used in our war machines is made by melting together
 1. Pig iron (about 5o&)
 ?. Scrap generated in the steel plant in the
 process of steemaking (about 25%)
 3. Scrap purchased from outside Junk
 sources (about 258o) We have plenty of iron to make the pig iron needed But our furnaces operate faster when there is plenty of scrap to mix with the pig iron. . This so-called scrap" which goes into the furnaces to make the steel for tanks ships and guns is actually refined stee-with most impurities removed Some ot the finest quality steels are made 10OSo from scrap. The iron and steel scrap which collect bought by the steel mills from scrap dealers at established, government controlled prices.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-07-20

A crisis exists in our war production pro- gram which can be solved only by the patriotic cooperation of the American people. z We are faced with serious shortage of steel scrap, rubber and other vital materials.
 This shortage must be filled.
 By "scrap'' we mean the ordinary Junk which today is lying in the barnyards and in the gullies of farms; in the base ments, attics and garages of homes and stores throughout the country.
 < < k
 Thc steel industry operates on the basis Of half and haf-ab 50 per cent metal from pig iron and 50 per cent renaezted scrap metal. Therefore, about 50 per cent Of euery tank, every ship. eUery sub. marine and eUery gun Is made of scrap iron and steel. {
 The steel industry has been rapidly stepping up its production-from 67,- 100000 tons in 1o4O to record breaking 83,oOO,OOO tons in 1941. Production in 1o42 is already ahead of 1941, but we need to get production up to the indus try's full capacity of eo,ooo,ooo tons-a total equal to the output of the rest of the world combined.
 Tkis volume of production cannot be attained or increased unless an additional 6,OO0, ,000 tons of scrap iron and steel IS obtained promptly. z 
 We are faced with the fact that some

 You can either sell your scrap to a Junk dealer or you can give it to a. charity, which in turn will sell it to a Junk dealer who performs an important function by sorting it, grading it, pack ing it and shipping it to the right place. We urge local charities and ciOic organizations to cooperate with the Local Salvage Committee and devise plan of action and collection.
 We urge the scrap dealer toN co- operate as fast as he can in the collection and shipment of materials.
 We urge industrial executives to appoint Salvage Managers who have both the responsibility and authority to salvage obsolete machinery, tools and dies.
 We urge every farmer and eOery householder in America to act at once. Go over your premises with a fine tooth comb. If you have already turned in your scrap, look again-youll prob- ably find more.

 New York, July 25 = (U.P) The : New York Giants, now nosing to- ward upper regions of the National Leagues first division, reflect vividly the baseball philosophy of their 1922 manager, little Mel Ott.
 Ott believes in offensive baseball the hard-hitting, run-making game me-and since his appointment last December as pilot of the Polo Grounds outfit, he has concentrated on assembling a hitting club.
 This is a sharp contrast to the policies of Otis predecessor, Bill Terry, who, though a good batter himself, bore down on defense and consequently turned out teams more noted for defense than attack.
 Under Terry, the Giants tight de- Tense set records in muffling oppo- nent's scoring. One year Terry's staff pitched g shutouts, and held the opposition to one run in 28 other games. These defensive tactics won three pennants for the giants. And in the years that they won the flags, S~AAo DA oAAO OA P4dy A4d4ACdAACu 4d11 Interest. But when the Giants could mt win pennarits, the public became bored with the protective gestures of TerTy's lads and migrated in reg 1mentS to Larry MacPhail's Brook 1yn Dodger circus or to the nearby Stadium where Joe McCarthy's lusty Yankees dealt dynamite with their aShen wands.
 Ott, who was brought to the Polo Grounds as a kid of 16 by John Mo- Graw, learned early that runs were the vitamins upon which fans thrived. Down through the years, from his spot in right field, he heard the beloved pleas from bleacher and stand for runs. And when little Mel Nnkled to the plate and took his hobby horse stride-and-cut at the pitch, he did his best to prove runs, making a target of the lower right field stands. As 8 run-maker he was mighty successful, but he craved
