Salvage Drive Details Scrap Yard and Collections
Local salvage effort led by the Salvage Committee reports a large wartime scrap push with 125 tons targeted, later exceeding forecasts. The Meyers Paley yard in Bristol handled much of the metal, while additional tonnage required Seth Paul Co. scales to ease congestion. A tin can drive yielded almost two tons, and residents are urged to salvage more materials for the war effort.
