M'S l AGAINST WASTE
What's Been Done In Other Countries
A series of articles on the Government’s efforts in Conservation, simplifi
cation, substitution, and salvage to make moire of our vital raw materials avail
able for defense production.
The Office of Production Man
agement is forming a new Bureau
of Conservation. Its function is to
b r, ng under one head and one Gov
ernment unit all of the work on
conservation, substitution, altera
tion of specifications, salvage, and
simplification of design which had
previously been done in several
different agencies.
The Bureau will utilize to the
fullest possible extent the facili
ties and personnel of existing
Government agencies experienced
in the general field of conserva
tion, such as the National Bureau
of Standards. It will absorb the
work previously performed by
the Conversation Section of OPM;
the Government Conservation
Branch of the Division of Pur
chases, OPM; and the conserva
tion units in the farmer Office of
Price Administration and Civilian
Supply. The Bureau will cooperate
with the Consumer Divison of
OPA where consumers’ interests
are affected by any proposed pro
gram for simplification of a con
sumer product.
The primary objective of the
new Bureau is simple: To stretch
as far as practicable, by all pos
sible techniques, our available
supplies of raw materials for the
twin purposes of making sure that
the Arsenal of Democracy is sup
plied with every pound of material
to meet operating requirements
and at the same time keep the
civilian economy on a strong op
erating basis.
The Conservation Bureau will
work along several lines, many
of which are but a continuation
of work already undertaken by
other Government agencies. These
include revision of Government
specifications; avoidance of waste
in industrial practices; promotion
of the use of substitute materials
wherever more plentiful substi
tutes are available; collection of
household salvage; simplification
of consumar goods; etc.
Cooperation of State and munic
ipal governments, of industry, and
of the public will be solicited by
the Bureau. It will work as fre
quently as possible through the
Commodity Branches of OPM,
dealing wherever feasible with
existing defense industry advisory
committees. Finally, it will estab
lish a liaison with the engineer
ing profession and with industry j
through the formation of an En- I
gineers’ Defense Board, to be
made up of ranking members of
six engineering societies—civil, j
mechanical, chemical, electrical,
automotive, and mining and
metallurgical.
But conservation does not stop
with the establishment of a new I
Government bureau. The need for
conservation will become greater
as the months roL by—months
dominated by defense production.
Demands on our existing supplies
of raw materials will reach record
proportions when tanks, planes,
and guns begin to come out of
the arsenals and factories in flood
proportions. Today’s steps t® cut
down on civilian production rjark
just the beginning; tomorrow will j
bring more severe shortages that
THE COVINGTON NEW3
will be felt by every consumer in
the country.
What has been done so far can
be listed under the headings of
stock piles, priorities, allocations,
and conservation.
Rubber, manganese, tin—52
raw materials, all told—are being
accumulated in national safe de
posit piles—“stock piles” the trade
calls them—for use if and when a
point is reached where there is
not enough production of raw ma
terials to meet immediate defense
requirements. Under a coordinated
Government purchase program,
those materials are being stored
away by the Navy Reserve the
Army-Navy Munitions Board; and
the Office of Production Man
agement.
Rubber is a good example. For
more than a year now we have
been buying every pound of rub
ber we could get our hands on.
under pressure from our Govern
ment, production in the Nether
lands East Indies has been in
creased. Imports are at record
levels. The Government now buys
all rubber imported and Govern
ment and industry are sharing
the responsibility of storing hun
dreds of thousands of tons. Mean
while consumption has been re
duced and the public soon will
be asked to do its share in get
ting the last mile out of auto
tires.
Priority controls of one form
or another are now in effect for
35 raw materials. They insure
that all raw materials needed for
defense will be met; that steel
won t be going into refrigerators
when it is needed in tanks, or
that aluminum won’t go into pots
and pans when it’s required for
planes.
Allocations provide the method
for distributing raw materials
equitably to industries under
priority control. Once the indus
try is found to be filling defense
requirements and is given the
. * "ta*. the ..
P r( >P er P™> ri
material is allocated to it t on the
basis of that rating. Similiarly,
allocations of raw materials are
made to consumer-goods manufac
turers after defense needs have
been met.
Conservation, logically enough,
fits in with the problem of stock
piles, priorities, and allocations,
because once these methods are
resorted to for insuring full pro
Auction of defense goods, shortages
ar e inevitable for production of
consumer goods.
As the defense program speeds
up, these problems will be ac
centuated and intensified. They
will be brought directly home to
the consumer when he finds that
he can’t buy certain products, or
that those products are made of
an unfamiliar type of material.
Consumers will be asked to co
operate in salvage campaigns, in
proper care and maintenance of
their possessions, in accepting pa
triotically the sacrifices that will
be asked of them. In return, the
Supply Priorities and Allocations
Board has promised to root out
hoarding; to prevent unjustifiable
defense demands; to route the
available supplies of materials on
an orderly and equitable basis;
to curtail the less essential opera
tions of all industry rather than
permit less essential industries to
perish entirely; and to protect
consumer standards in every way
consistent with our prime na
tional objective: The defense of
the United States and of all those
who are fighting aggression.
