Housewives Turning In Waste Fats Supports War Effort
About four thousand pounds of waste fats were saved and turned into salvage by Elyria housewives during the past month and a half. The total collected by Elyria meat market operators reached 4060 pounds. Women diverted fats to salvage instead of selling them. Containers for receiving fats are placed in stores and money is paid. A civic military service program is backing the effort with committee members Frank Brandsu, Mrs A W Bobin, Mrs Bussej Franci, and Mrs Leobard P. Tufford guiding posters and pamphlets for women's groups to learn why kitchen fats are needed and how to use them in the war effort. Groups may request posters by calling committee members.
