Stbg. SCRAP The word scrap, according to Webster's dictionary, means: fragment; remnant; bit; fight. To us, to our country, it is fast taking on another In order for our country to be able to carry on its defense program, in order for our country to be able to bring to a satisfactory conclusion the conflict which we are now engaged in, we must have scrap! We are not alone in this need. The problems of Defense Production confronting us today are shared in kind with similar ones in England. Both countries need more iron and steel scrap in order to meet record breaking steel production goals.

The winter is at hand which means that snow storms and severe weather will continue and that the movement of scrap may be seriously impeded as a result. So let's all bear down a little more to get the Nth degree of that plus dormant scrap to keep the inventories at the steel mills and foundries at a level sufficient to insure maintenance of steel production goals. Our country is not asking for something for nothing, or just taking it from you as they would do in some countries, but are willing to pay you a good substantial price for your scrap iron All ask is that you gather it up, bring it to a market center so that it can be put to work again. The D. Katz Sons Yard has been designated as one of the collecting agencies for this territory and is ready to receive any or all the scrap iron, old batteries, old radiators, that you have and wish to bring in.

We will pay highest market prices for your scrap! Dreher Ave. D. Katz Sons Stroudsburg.
