All of us by now are aware of the importance of these things or should be. All of us know the desperate need to save rubber, know the staggering load carried by our railways, know the un ceasing demand of our factories tor metal, metal and more metal to make the tools of war. To make the tools of war which Is at our door-Aep. a war which stands in our Aleutiian Islands end off our East Coast beaches. _ — Unemployment Problem Eases Temporary unemployment was an inevitable result of the conver sion of our industries from peace time production to production for war. Now this unemployment has passed its peak and labor shortages are showing up. As fac tory whistles summon thousands of idle men back to work in the Changed-over industries it devel ops that there is a shortage of highly skilled labor in the radio industry, now nltiking, sending /and receiving apparatus for ed out ot eight large automobile factories, nine truck plants and 140 parts companies on the way to our far-flung fronts. At that pace they would be shipping weapons and munitions at the rate of 4.000,000,000 a year. Greater Salvage Campaign Starts Soon As soon as the Scrap Rubber drive is over, we are to begin a new and intensified salvage cam paign. This campaign Is to start July 13, and The War Production Board's Bureau of Industrial Con servation expects it to reach Into every home end every factory. We need metals of all kinds iron, steel, copper, aluminum—as well as fats and greases and tin cans from selected metropolitan areas. We must round up every ounce of waste material. Every discarded floor lamp, every pound of kitchen grease, every empty can we turn in will fight for dem ocracy. It’s not enough to raise our production sights again and again—we must salvage our wes- ted'resources to make up for the shortages of materials. OP.A Roll.s Back More Uent.s Control of prices is vital to our fight to keep down the cost of living— and that means control of rents. Several months ego Price Administrator Henderson named 3t)2 war rental areas and gave local authorities 80 days in which to cut back rents toj lowv er levels. Many of them failed to heed the warning. Now OPA has stepped into 54 of these areas and ordered rents reduced and stabilized. This action touched the lives ot a fifth of our total population. Next to food, rent is the largest item in the average budget A war worker cannot produce efficiently unless he is decently housed at a reasonable rental. . Housewives can help win the war by keeping their families well fed.
