Scrap Metal Shortage
|mperiIs War Output,
Iron Age Says
Problem Is Described
As Growing Headache
For Steel Industry
Fy the Associated Press.

Ey the AsSOCldtSu PIeSS
NEW YORK. July 22.-T11e Iron
Age, steel industry trade journal,
said today in its weekly survey that
scrap and alloy problems were grow
ing headaches to steel men.
Steel makers, it said, continue to
perform miracles in rapid furnace
repair and production of quality
steel with deteriorating scrap quail
ity."
Noting the current discussion of
sponge iron as possible substitute
for scrap, Iron Age said the prob
lem was "blundering along to a
first-class crisis this winter which
will jeopardize a sizable chunk of
the war program"
only a recognition of the profit
motive, such asa perhaps a 50 rise
in the scrap ceiling and more free
dom to manipulate different classifl-
cations at will under the ceiling can
possibly alter" disintegration of the
scrap collecting organizations, it
said.
With the critical position of GER
tain alloying elements becoming so
obvious" the magazine said, "the
industry Is on the Threshold of a
series of metallurgical innovations
that will tax the ingenuity of all
concerned"
A new technique of grinding tools,
devised by Wright Aeronautical
Corp, was said to mean a con-
siderable saving of alloys required
by tool steels. Metal for many other
uses, it added, probably would be
replaced by the national emer-
gency" steels of low elloy content.

Women in Industry

And today, how the nation does need
the services of it's women!
Everywhere women have gone into
action, doing important jobs.
Some of the jobs are inconspicuous
perhaps like that of a young girl
friend who left for the Hawaiian
Islands in a War Department job.
When she left the mainland it was
with expectations of a happy time in
tropical islands. But then came the
blasting bombs. Her risk now is as
great as that of the soldiers.
Then there are women by the hun
dreds doing Red Cross work, giving
free as much as half of their time.
Their work is really hard work, much
of it unpleasant but they'll stick.
Women are taking over the office
work of civil defense Offices every
where, working just as hard-prob-
ably harder-than many who have
paying jobs in private industry.
Women soon will be called into fac
tories, for regular work, much of it
the same work men do.
Women in industry | should say
so. Also, women in war!

SOCIALIST GROUP
PLEDGES SUPPORT

New York City (ILNS) Pledging
"active and untiring cooperation" in
the nations war effort, the Social
Democratic Federation, at a member
ship meeting here, declared that "no
needful sacrifice is too great, no useful
service is too humble or too hard
when freedom is at stake" and called
upon all democratic Socialists to give
unstinted support to the government
in the prosecution of the war
"America's hands are clean," the
meeting declared. ''If our government
and our people have fault to regret,
it is that they were too patient, too
much in love with peace, too slow to
draw the sword. The amazing infamy
of the japanese attack has united the
American people more solidly than
they have been united in any previous
war"
Speakers included Algernon Lee,
city chairman of the Social Demo-
cratic Federation; Councilman elect
Louis P. Goldberg, and August Claes-
sens.
The Social Democratic Federation
is composed of Socialists who left the
Socialist party some years ago be-
cause of opposition to the policies and
tactics of Norman Thomas and other
leaders of the party.

New York attorney, New York Com
missioner of Parks Robert Moses has
indicated in a letter to Meserole that
there will be no restrictions upon in
formal meetings in Union Square
Park. This sets at rest previous re-
ports that the historic center for argu-
ment on contemporary questions was
to be closed to group discussion.
There will be no restrictions, Moses
said, provided groups "do not block
the paths, and that they are at all
times orderly"
