Roanoke Rapids Seeks Rubber Drive Through House to House Chest
The Roanoke Rapids Salvage for Victory Committee sponsors a one day city wide canvass led by Boy Scout troops to collect old rubber items for wartime needs. Frank Kemp urges full participation with every house contacted Friday and replacements offered to reduce rubber use. The drive aims to keep reclaiming plants running at capacity with a 30 000 ton monthly minimum and notes vast imports disrupted by the war.
