DEFICIT IN FATS
MUST BF MET BY
KITCHEN SALVAGE

OHA Administrator Chester Bowles
Calls Attention off Women to
Bonus in Red Points and
Cash ffor Saving Grease
"American housewives have
been cooperating splendidly In
the Fat Salvage Program, but It
Is imperative that they save even
more fats this year than in the
past", says Chester Bowles, Ad
ministrator of Ofllce of Price Ad
ministration.
Chester Bowles
"This Is necessary because
wartime requirements will ex
ceed supplies unless the deficit
is made up by saving used house
hold fats. Despite the rapid ad
vance of our forces in the Pacific
it will probably be a year before
oil shipments can be resumed
from there", Mr. Bowles de
clared.
"So the 1945 goal for salvaged
fats has been set at 250 million
pounds as compared with tbe
170 million pounds saved last
year.
"If all the 31,000,000 American
housewives living in private
dwellings saved even one table
spoon of used fat every day, this
would add up to 353 million
pounds in a year!
"For adding to the Nation's
supply of fats by turning in used
jfat, housewives are being given
two red points and up to 4 cents
for every pound", Mr. Bowles
stated. "The Nation needs this
used fat!"
