Keep saving, wontoha?

KIT( HEN FATS STILL
ARE GREATLY NEEDED
The end of rationing of
meats and fats and oils has
in no way lessened the need
for the salvage of used kit-
I chen fats, Hillman Moody,
I assistant state director of
’the U. S. Department of
Agriculture’s Pro duction
and Marketing Administra
tion, declared" this week,
j Quoting Secretary of Ag
riculture Clinton P. Ander
son, Mr. Moody asserted
that “even though rationing
is ended, there still remains
the need for preventing
waste of any fats, and for
salvaging all used fats whi
ch are needed for the rqanu
facture of soap and for oth
er industries.”
Meat dealers, Mr. Moody
pointed out- will continue to
pay housewives four cents
a pound for used kitchen
fats. He urged housewives
not to let up on this essen-j
tial and patriotic “reconver-i
sion activity,” inasmuch as
supplies of industrial fats,)
which go into the making
of soap and other civilian
goods are still very short.
1 his supply situation, he
said, will continue serious
until war-halted imports
again reach peacetime pro
portions.
