Paper Drive To Continue In War Salvage Effort
Edward B Zane of the War Production Board urged continued paper salvage throughout Southern California during summer. He warned vacations could disrupt school collections and urged citizens to contact salvage chairs or newspapers to route salvaged paper to the proper pickup. Local chairs plan various methods from Boy Scout drives to curb pickups and central depots in stores and public places. A recent Truman statement emphasized conserving critical materials for war, noting paper’s vital role in repacking supplies for the Pacific theater.
