Mrs. Mckee said in pointing to
the critical shortage of scrap
which now threatens to stall the
war effort.
Scrap rubber and old rags

ton. The cans will be picked
up at a time to be announced

fatal attack was hunted down

YorktoWn's escort and repeated

The results Of these d c p t h

been included in the total per-

The Yorktown and the Ham

THE sabers were government

they should be returned to serv-
