Linn County Rubber Drive Fails to Hit Quota Yet
The Rubber for War committee reports Linn County collected 119 829 pounds, with 25 552 more added to service stations. Though a day earlier 94 277 pounds were tallied, the county remains 1 080 171 pounds short of the 1 200 000 pound goal with less than two weeks left. Households and farmers are urged to triple daily totals, with oil stations and trucks mobilized to recover more scrap rubber.
