Salvage Collections
In D. {. Made Huge
Gain in Last 6 Months

During the last six months Of 1943,
collection of all types of salvage
materials exceeded by 28,275, ,403
pounds the collections made during
the first six months in the District,
James E. Collif1ower, chairman of
the local Salvage Committee, re-
ported yesterday.
Mr.. Colliflower said a total of
1851 1929 pounds were turned in
during the last half of the year.
Most of the increase came from
paper salvage, in which 81 1865 $50
pounds were collected, compared
with 38,484,377 pounds for the first
half Of the year. The total was 1O5
per cent Of the city's unofficial
quota.
Bigger Collections Urgent.
Existing programs must, of ne
cessity. be expanded to include the
collection Of every pound of waste
paper available in the District to
meet the Governments drastic ap-
peal for cooperation in this work, +"
Mr.. Colliflower said.
The report also showed collections
OF scrap iron and steel in WASH
ington amounted to 38.637.814
pounds, which was 90 per cent Of the
AZ ,0O0, ,000-pound quota established
by the War, Production Board.
Fats Salvage Month.
Mr.. Collifower also reported that
4,79o pounds of household fats hao
been turned in during the period
This was about 54 per cent Of the
goal. Salvage officials remind Dis
trict residents that January is Fats
Salvage Month" Collections last
month amounted to 69,135 pounds
81 per cent rise over November
Salvage officials expressed con-
siderable concern over collections OF
tin cans, noting that only 5,616
pounds were gathered during the last
six months of the year. Part of the
poor showing in tin can collections
was attributed to the erroneous
belief tin containers no longer are
wanted. 1t was pointed out that
WPB recently declared that tin
would not be taken from the list
OF critical materials, and in this
connection it was urged that house
holders turn in as much of this
| strategic material as possible.
