Scrap For Guns TO Whip Axis Collected Here

has been turned in by William Duf-
lock, chairman of the county ad-
vertising committee. He has been
responsible for the vast amount OF
publicity given the campaign that
has gone far to bring out workers
and the donation of scrap.
Directing the disposal work has
been Arno Yaeckel, chairman OF
that committee.
Smith stated he was highly pleas
ed with the part the valley has
played in contributing to the state
quotas. California has a quota oil
$4,000 900 tons for the first half OF
l943 and valley committee workers
are anxious to contribute a large
amount of this.

paign they hope will produce even
greater results than the various
individual campaigns staged thus
far.
While Smith is the overall direc-
tor of the county movement, he has
chairmen in each valley community
who supervise and promote the work
in their respective district.
They include the following:
Calipatria, Thomas riley; West
morland, l.. B. Warren; Brawley,
w. F. Peterson; Imperial, Hans Lar

chief credit for the success of the
affair to school children throughout
the district.
Youths have spent unending hours
of their after-study periods as well
as much time on Saturdays in gath
ering up metal, he said. Into back
alleys and vacant lots. junk heaps
and abandoned buildings the chill

They undertook their task with
great zest that never laltered until

TO THE RESCUE

It comes to their rescue in dis

gram. in the event of bombing, to
cooperate with the OCD. The Red
Cross in the valley is prepared, in
the event of military diaster, to
care for the housing, and clothing
and feeding of refugees or evacuees.

Also the Red Cross has offered to

which in the event of disaster, will
be doubly valuable.

ers is the disposal committee.
Through the efforts of this body
much of the metal collected has
been sold to coast concerns and
junk dealers. Valley junk dealers
came in for a bit of praise from
Smith for their action in paying
prices that topped those of the Los
Angeles area for salvage. AS result
of the expedient work of the dis
posal committee, Imperial Valley
scrap metal is now going into war
ships and other implements of war
for use b. the United Nations.

ANOTHER FUNCTION

Another function which the Red
Cross has carried out in the valley
is the water safety training 10
which many a serviceman on tor
pedoed ship owes his life, has al
ways carried out the accident pre-
vention program and highway first
aid which are still emphasized, al
though perhaps less SO at the pres
ent time with all the extra work
the chapters have to undertake
with the war.
In Imperial Valley there are
three Red Cross chapters, Brawley,
headed bv NJ. H Wilson as chair
man; Calexico with Earl Cavanah
as chairman, and FL Centre, with
H. r. Anderson as chairman, and
with Mrs. William Burke. Jr., as
chairman of the Holtville branch
and Carmen Gibson of the Impe-
rial branch.
These chapters carry on pro-
grams similar TO those outlined for
the FL Centre chapter and to do
this work they must be financed by
the annual drive, which opened
March l.
One hundred per cent of the
money collected goes 10 the Red
Cross, with no expenses deducted.
No Red Gross funds come from the
government, although the Red
Cross has at times administered the
distribution of relief goods pur-
chased from government appropria-
tions.
