Here Are Facts
Concerning Fats
Iu response to queries raised by
.American housewives and retail meat
dealers who hove participated in the
first uionth of the current waste fat
satynge drive, the Wl'B Coiiservntlou
Division toduy released it series
of typical questions and answers on
various phases of the CHmpulgu.
Q. What Is the top price housewives
will be pHld fur their waste fats?
A. A recent OPA price celling or
dor seta four cents a pound as the
top price that meat dealers can pay
housewives for the collected fats.
Q. What Is the top price Tenderers
can pay dealers for the waste
fats 7
A. The same OPA order set this
celling at five cents a pound.
Q. Will meat markets and frozen
food locked plants pay four cents a
pound to honsewives in all areas?)
A. No. These OPA ceilings are
maximum rather than fixed prices.
In Rome areas remote from rendering
plants, the cost of collection often
makes It impossible for renders to
pay as much as five cents to retail
dealers.' Consequently, many meat
markets and frozen food locker plants
are able to pay only two or three
cents a pound to housewives.
Q. Do the retail meat dealers make
uny profit on the waste fats they
buy from housewives and sell to Tenderers?
# A.
Their nroflr Is rieelltrlhle slnee
the one cent margin which they are
allowed by OPA barely covers their
cost of handling.
la the low price per pound paid
to housewives In some areas expected
to cut down collections! J.
' A. Since the principal motive for
housewife participation is a desire
to help the war effort, the price Is
not "expected to make auy difference
In the volume of waste' fata turned
in. *
Q. Must housewives go to the
trouble of straining ihelr fata through
n fine cloth?
A. Exerlence has shown that ordinary
metal kitchen strainers adequately
remove meat scraps and other
foreign matter from fats.
Q. Is a higher price paid for light
than for dark fats?
A. Light mid dark colored fats
ure equally ac<vpmble. Impurities
which cause dark colors- do not reduce
glycerine content of the fat.
The same price prevails for nil colors
and types, wrether from ham.
ebef, lamb, poultry, steaks, chops
and bacon, or reclaimed lard and
vegetable shortening.
Q. Are glass Jars and paper containers
suitable for waste fat collection?

additional straining. (Haw
Jars, If they havent already cracked
aud chip|a*d when the hot dripping*
are poured, will certainly do so in the
rendering process. Therefore, the
waste fata should be collected only
In clean wlde-piouthed tin cans, preferably
of the type used for shortening
or coffee.
Q. How extensively should the fat*
be used before turning in us "waste?"
A. Since the object of tbe campaign
Is to make America's supply
of fats go as far as possible, each
housewife la expected to get 'maximum
cooking use and food' value
from her kitchen Cuts before turuing
them over to her meat dealer or
frozen food locker plant as waste.
Q. Must waste fats be turned In to
meat markets and frozen food locker
plunts at any particular time7
A. There is no set time for turning
in waste futs, but housewives
can relieve week-end shopping congestion
at meat counters by taking
tbelr waste fat collections to the
butcher early In the week.
Q. How much waste fats are housewives
expected to turn In every
year? - .,
A^Every ounce that they can save.
I To meet the national goal of half a
million pounds annually, city dwellers
are expected to furnish an average
of 4 P pounds per person annually,
and farm residents ,an average
of 2.8 pounds per year.
Q. Why are urban residents expected
to turn In more waste fat.than
farmers? -
A. Farmers make good use of part
jof. their waste fats In borne soap
making and in food for livestock.
Q. What are the waste fats used
| for? . - _ . :. . ' '. 'I * ?
| A. Waste, cooking fata are used
lu the manufacture of. glycerine, an
important Ingredient in .many of our
explosives- For Instance, one pound
of waste cooking fats will produce
enough glycerine to manufacture 1.8
pounds of gunpowder. - Two pounds
of waste fats will produce the glycerine
required to fire five 37 nun.
anti-tank shells. Q.
Is all the waste fat fumed in
used for munitions?
A. The glycerine content la used
for explosives, and for other items,
such as gun recoil mechanisms and
floating compasses. After extraction,
the residue is used in the manufacture
of soap, another wartime necessity.
Glycerine also has many important
industrial and medical uses.

and the honor* of the world. Over
against tbls was: "Blessed ure the
meek." He knew that man was
prone to hunger and thirst for the
things the world gives. Over against
these desires he called man to "hunger
and thirst after righteousness."
Christ knew that human Inclination
was to deal harshly with ones
fellow man, to judge with prejudice
the words and deeds of another.
Over against this he placed:
"Blessed are the merciful: for they
shall obtain mercy;" and "Judge not,
that ye be not Judged." He knew the
barriers men build aguinst their fellow
men; the prejudices of race,
nationality, creed. Over against
these he placed his Ideal and bis
practice of . brotherhood. He who
needs your help, whatever his station
In life, is your neighbor.
Even more difficult of acceptance!
are some of the words our Lord gave
us. We accept as reasonable and
right, even from human standpoints,
that we {?hall love those who,
in return, give us their love. We reserve
some right to "fight back," to
hurt those who seek our hurt. But
Jesus puts nslde all this as he says,
"Love your enemies, do good to them
uioi iime you, oiexe uiem mar curse
you, prey for them that despltefully
use you." Thus, he declares, will you
be "sods of your Father who Is Id
heaven." .
It la significant that those who.
Id the Sermon on the Mount, are
listed as children of God are those
who love their enemies and thos^
who are peacemakers. What an appeal
to humanity-of our day Is this
message of our Lord 1 And how a
world at wur needs to hear it and
give heed to It!
. It Is not too soon to give consideration
to the peace that will come
and the decisions that must be
reached If our world Is to be rebuilt.
There is no way out *of the
dangers that threaten humanity except
as we build upon the ideal of
brotherhood, except us/we build on
the words of Jesus: "Love your
enemies." As never In the past, this
world has become a neighborhood. If I
we would save ourselves, the people
of all nations must learn to live
as neighbors.
