PAGE TWO THE YANCEY RECORD ESTABLISHED JULY, 1936 " Editor Mrs. C. R. Hamrick Managing Ed. Lee E. Edwards* Published Every Thursday By YANCEY PUBLISHING CO. A Partnership Entered as second-class matter November 11th, 1936, at the Post Office, at Burnsville, North Carolina, under the Act of March 3, 1879, NAVY ■ ' l Applications for enlist ment as Chief Specialist ! (A) (Acting Appointment) | Class Y"6, U. S. Naval Re serve, for duty as physical instructors are again being accepted. , < j Selected applicants be tween the ages of twenty one and thirty-three who hold degrees in education; Collection of Scrap Metal Program A. BACKGROUND 1. All metals are needed in program. 2. Iron and steel are extremely vital. i 3. Scrap iron and steel js not only desirable for the ton nage thus added to metals for‘defense but is ABSO LUTELY NECESSARY in the present method of manufacturing NEW steel. 4. There are many tons of scrap iron and' steel oh the farms of N. C. accumulated through the years in the discarded farm machinery, tractors, gas engines, auto mobiles, fence wire, etc. 5. Scrap metal, like most commodities, is graded and classified. Some grades are worth more thap others. Farm scrap generally falls into a group known a* No. 2 Heavy Melting Steel Scrap. A price ceiling if 77c per 100 lbs., delivered at Atlanta, Ga., and varying prices jy delivery at other points has been fixed by OPM. From this price the cost of preparing t that is sorting, cutting and handling i and shipping must be deducted. In N. C. farmers should receive 40c to 55c per 100 lbs. for farm scrap not including sheet metal. ” 6. Scrap metal dealers are licensed by the state and arc located in about half the counties. There are also persons who buy junk in most towns and so-called peddlers who go from farm tqfarm. As these last have no means of weighing the metal is it recommend ed that wherever possible farmers deliver their scrap metal to the yard of a licensed dealer. B. PROBLEM 1. To get every pound of farm scrap metal which is not serving, or can t be made to serve Agriculture, into • proper channels for National Defense. C. SOLUTION Farmers should be informed of the situation and urged to: 1; Collect usable metal and scrap material of all kinds (iron, steel, brass, copper, lead, zinc, old tires, paper, FagS ’ *’ ThiS collection vvill accomplish three things: a. tremendously in National Defense. b. Bring some money returns from "its sale. c. Remove ceitain hazards to humans and livestock on the farm. 2. Take all metal to licensed dealers’ junk yards if possible. 3 Ordinary farm scrap (No. 2 Melting Scrap Steeli should bring from 40c tn 55c per 100 lbs. at the yards. (Less than this is offered for sheet metal, more for copper, brass, lead, etc. i \ Where licensed dealers are not found,, arrangements should be made to assemble scrap at convenient points Us possible where wagon or truck platform scales are available) and have representatives of licensed dealers bid on it. 5. If sold to peddlers who go from’farm to farm, cori mderabiy less than the above prices will be received b. Nothing should be sold for scrap that can be used on the farm, in the home, or in the community: bolts nuts, washers, rods, braces, angle iron, flat bars or tool steel or any part which might.be used to repair la ™ machinery or for other purposes should not be sold. High School Farm Shops need material of this sort in their school Defense Shop Courses. 7. Old papers and magazines should be wrapped in a bundle and sold. Old auto and electric light •atteries should be sold. Sheet metal and fence wire shuuld be assembled and sold. Old tires can' be sold. Glass and bottles are not desired. & As in the Farm Machinery Repair Program, com munities should he organized and use all possible means to get this Scrap Metal Collection Campaign across. a. Newspapers, radio programs, etc., should be>%sed b. Scrap dealers will assist and should be kept in formed of plans and progress. NOTE: One county is reported to have assembled 200 tons of scrap metal, sold it and GAVE THE PRO CEEDS TO THE RED CROSS; their campaign slo gan was, “SCRAP THE JAP WITH SCRAP.” (N. C.
