10000 pounds was turned in to
the nations retail stores during
the first three months, the food

its own collections which
amounted to $4,000 pounds. The

SCRAP Steel production last
week exceeded the theoretical
100 per cent of capacity for the
first time since Pearl Harbor. At
the root of this achievement, say
industry operators, is the top
notch job being done by Ameri-
cans in gathering scrap metal.
Some 5000, 000, 900 pounds al
ready have been collected from
industry and from rural home
steads, city apartments and sub
urban dwellings. AS examples OF
industry contributions, General
Electric company salvaged $780,
900 900 pounds, the scrap in
Guiding an outmoded power
plant. An especially effective
scrap collector has been the
railroads, with the Chesapeake
& Ohio, Nickel Plate and Pere
Marquette together reporting
collections of 1872 ,00O, 900 pounds
since the war started. These

Behind the Scenes
In American Business
By John Cruddock

MANPOWER: The lives of
, millions of Americans which
have undergone change since
before the war will be further
altered, to some perhaps dras-
tically, in the months to come.
For control of manpower by the
government appears inevitable.
Already Minnesota has come to
grips with the problem. There,
GOVERNOR StasSen has ordered
nOneSSential industries - and
the state - to reduce by 20 per
cent the number of male en-
' ployes so to make available
more farm labor. What form ma
tion-wide control should take
is still a much disputed matter
in Washington circles. President
Roosevelt favorS voluntary con-
troll, but if this method fails to
produce results, he adds, I'VE
shall have to have new legisla-
ton"
1t is one of the questions that
will bear watching for it may
mean that John Smith, a clerk
in your home town, will be turn
ing out war weapons for Uncle
Sans fighting forces next year.
Some idea of what manpower
means in these days of global
warfare Is indicated in the es-
Inmates Of military men who
figure that it takes ten men be-
hind the lines to supply fully
each man in uniform. That
makes the problem Of concern
to everyone when it is considered
that the nations total labor
force is not much more than
100000 men and women.
