Lack of scrap is creating a seri-
ous problem in the war program,
according to steel makers, because
scrap must be used to manufacture
finished steel. Smaller plants par-
ticularly, these sources said, are
dependent upon a steady and
abundant flow.
In the last few days, when it
was hoped collecting would in-
crease, the trade has remained
quiet. Salvage circles blame this
on the cold, saying it has prevented
dealers from scouring the country-
side for material.
Effects of the shortage were
evidenced this week when Great
Lakes Steel corporation, Detroit
subsidiary of National Steel cor-
poration. shut down four of its 16
open hearth furnaces for lack of
enough scrap to keep them going.

The three Americans raced un-
hesitatingly into the Japanese
fleet. i
The other British and American
• planes joined later and when it
was all over 31 Japanese planes
had been downed.
It is not possible, because of the
6 need for military secrecy. to say
how many American and British
planes were lost but the number
was "surprisingly small.”
Inspiring Victory
Details of the battle, which
reached here today, made it plain
that it had been an inspiring vic-
tory for a heavily out-numbered
.allied force, and one witness who
watched from the ground while the
first three Americans went into
' the Japanese fleet with the guns
of their planes spitting said:
“It looked like a fleet of row-
boats attacking the Spanish ar-
mada.” a
It was believed that several, at
least, of the 7) Japanese planes
which emerged irom a battle they
thought would be another sneak
victory, crashed into the sea be-
fore they could reach their base in
occupied Thailand.
The American part of the vic-
tory was won by the pilots of the
