Let’s blast Japan—and Germany—and Italy—with the chain
lightning of destruction that can be built from the scrap in
our cellars, attics and garages, on our farms and in our places
of business.
Scrap iron and steel, other metals, rubber and waste
materials. It will all be used to make tanks, ships, planes
and the fighting weapons our boys must have. It is needed
at once.
Sell it to a Junk dealer—give it to a charity or collection
agency—take it yourself to the nearest collection point—or
consult the Local Salvage Committee... If you live on a farm,
and have found no means of disposing of your Junk, get in
touch with the County War Board or your farm implement
dealer.

War Production Chairman Nel-
son announced the War Production
Board is re-rating every project
in the war program to secure the
"maximum impact on the enemy
now.” Cambat planes, particular-
ly bombers, are at the top of this
new list, Mr. Nelson said.
Chairman Nelson reported the U.
S. is now producing muntitions
three and a half times the rate
in November, 1941, the month be-
. fore Pearl Harbor. July produc-
i tion, he said, was 16 per cent
I above June production, but 7 per
; cent short of production forecast
i made at the beginning of July.
| "The big job ahead of us right
now is to bring our program into
i balance and make sure that we
use our materials and facilities as
wisely as possible,” he said. “This
means that we must redouble our
efOorts, particularly on the low
spots, if we are to make our goals

Aircraft production increased 11'
• per cent in July over June out-
put, Mr. Nelson said. Although
"ombat nlane production rose 6 per

I tions. He also reported: Overall
1 ordnance production in July in-:
' '-reased 26 per cent over June out-
nt. and was very close to sched-
ules; production of medium tanks
was 35 per cent greater than in
the previous month and consider-
ably ahead of schedules: light
tanks up 15 per cent also were
ahead of schedules: anti-aircraft
guns exceeded schedules by a “wide
margin”: merchant ships were up
6 per cent and “nearly on sched-
ule for the month;” deliveries of
major combat vessels were ahead
I of those in June and “considerably
ahead of schedules.”
The War Front
General MacArthur's headquar-
ters in Australia reported allied
fighter pilots using new battle tac-
tics shot down at least 13 Jap-
anese planes, and probably 15 or
more, out of an enemy fleet of 47
| which attacked Darwin. No allied
I planes were lost. The Navy re-
| ’xtrted the Marines’ hold on at
| least three of the Solomon Islands
' is now well established. When
700 Japanese counter-attacked on
one of the islands 670 were killed
and the other 30 taken prisoners.
Pacific Fleet Commander Nimitz
reported. The Marine losses were
28 killed and 72 wounded. Ad-
miral Nimitz also announced a
I force of Marines made a successful
landing on Makin Island, killed
80 Japanese, wrecked various in-1

ers.” Mr. Wickard also said he
now favors repeal of the provision
of the price control act “which
prohibits ceilings on processed farm
products If the ceiling price re-
flects a farm price of less than 110
per cent of parity." He said farm
prices “have reached partity on
an average.” The WPB Food Re-
quirements Committee asked the
armed forces, the Lend-Lease Ad-
ministration, and the War Pro-
duction Board to collaborate in
working out a program for alloca-
tion of all Government meat pur-
chases as equitably as possible
among federally inspected packers.
The Agricultural Marketing Ad-
ministration bought $137,900,000
worth of foodstuffs during July
for the United Nations and other
requirements, including 80.000 lbs.
of dehydrated beef. '
Rationing
Tire quotas will have to follow
a downward trend the rest of this
year to keep within the amount
of rubber earmarked by the WPB
for the purpose, the Office of
Price Administration said. The
Office asked local rationing boards
for the “strictest possible interpre-
tation” of a recent amerttiment to
tire rationing regulations restrict-
ing truck eligibility to vehicles es-
sential to the war effort or public
health and safety.
Oil and Gasoline
WPB Chairman Nelson appointed
Under Secretary of War Patterson.
Petroleum Coordinator Ickes and
Price Administraton Henderson as
a committee to determine whether
fuel oil should be rationed in the
East Coast area this winter. Be-
cause of the shortage of fuel oil in
____ the area. Mr. Ickes prohibited the

with dependent wives; and finally
men who have wives and children.
He said the reservoir of 1-A men
