Rubber Collection Drive Is Lagging
r
\
Only Little More than 7 Tons Have Been Turned In
With only four more days left for the current rubber
salvage campaign, Chairman Tom Dyer, estimated that
there are approximately ten tons more of waste rub
ber in and around Juneau that could be turned in.
At present, the scrap piles in Juneau Motors and
Cowling and Davlin Co. measure up to only slightly
more than seven tons. Among companies which have
cooperated whole-heartedly in the drive are the Al
aska Juneau Mining Company, the Alaska Light and
Power Company, Pan American Airways.
Frank Dufresne, of the Alaska Game Commission,
while on an official business trip to Haines, talked the
Army into sponsoring the campaign there. In addition.
Dufresne brought in a load from the beach and says
that anyone with an auto can take a drive out the
highway and pick up several hundred pounds of the
Scrap off*lhe beach.
Dyer emphasized that most of the rubber turned in
so far has been the easy-to-get scrap, and that there
are many tons more that should be turned in.
The Boy Scouts distributed pamphlets and are mak
ing house to house collections of the scrap. Rubber
may be turned in simply by leaving it in a box for
your grocery delivery man to pick up. You can either
donate it free or collect one cent a pound on it. If
you expect to be paid, you must deliver the scrap
one of the salvage depots in person.—Juneau Empire.
A Proclamation
WHEREAS, The President of the United States has
asked the American people to collect scrap rubber to
assist n remedying the shortage of rubber, since 94
percent of the world's supply formerly available to the
. United States has been captured by the enemy, and
since rubber is a commodity indispensible to our carry
ing on of the war, and,
WHEREAS, the President has designated the repre
sentatives of the oil companies in each community as
the collection agencies for this rubber, and,
WHEREAS, the collection of rubber to date has
been somewhat disappointing, due no doubt not to any
lack of patriotism or cooperativeness on the part of
the American people, but rather due to the inadvert
ence and lack of realization of the supreme necessity
for all-out participation in this campaign, and,
WHEREAS, it is particularly important that Alaska,
which has thus far made so excellent a showing in the
sale of war bonds and war savings stamps, and in its
organization of civilian defense, likewise do its full
part effectively in every war effort, and,
WHEREAS, there are varyingly in our communities
old tires, inner tubes, automobile floor mats, bath mats,
rubber toys, boots, galoshes, shoe packs, rain coats,
rubber sickers, rubber hose, rubber belting, old tires
used as bumbers on fishing boats and docks and mis
cellaneous rubber articles, and,
WHEREAS, owing to the great distances in Alaska,
the remoteness of some communities, and the recent
difficulties of communication, rubber collecting may
have been delayed in our Territory, "
NOW, THEREFORE, I. ERNEST GRUENING, Gov
ernor of Alaska, request that the campaign in Alaska
be •: xten led from its original termination date, June
30, to the close of Saturday, July 11, thus giving Al
askans eleven additional days for the purpose, and
earnestly urge the mayors, municipal councils, and
other public authorities, including civilian defense
personnel, newspapers, radio stations, cannery and
mining camp superintendents, officers of women’s
clubs, fraternal lodges, labor unions, chambers of
commerce, service clubs, American Legion posts, boy
and girl scouts, Four H Clubs and all other groups to
give the lullest publicity and cooperation to this rub
ber collection drive so that in the additional days of
this campaign the maximum amount of scrap rubber
be turned in to the collecting agencies in each com
munity.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I
have hereunto subscribed
my hand and caused the
seal of the Territory of Al
By the Governor aska to be affixed. Done at
the City of Juneau this 26th
day of June in the year of
our Lord, nineteen hundred
SEAL and forty-two.
