Lead Production Urged to Boost War Supply in Arizona
The War Production Board called for a rapid expansion of Arizona lead output in 1945. Louis A. Myers of the state WPB urged producers to file for extra labor and accelerate mining to meet wartime needs. The plan aims to raise total state production, aided by scrap drives, labor changes, and zinc output, amid labor and export challenges. A Ruby Arizona mining restart by Hugo W. Miller adds impetus, as Eagle-Picher properties are leased for renewed mining.
