AUSTIN, May — A stater broken tools—these ean b<«oine
wide spring houaecleauing for
materials that can be salvaged for
war production was called for to-
day by George B. Butler, execu-
tive secretary of the Texas Sal-
vage Committee.
“Great quantities of the things
we need would be brought to light
by a concerted spring houseclean-
ing”, Mr. Butler suggested.
‘ ‘ Housecleaning in the average
home generally uncovers things
that are considered worthless or
too old for further use. In the
past, these collections often have
cluttered up attics, cellars a n <1
backyanls, so they have been des-
troyed or lost to further use by
being carried away by municipal
refuse collectors”.

salable and total receipts 900.
Trade in the San Antonio hog di-
vision for the week’s initial ses-
• sion developed on a- generally
steady basis for all classes. The
day’s top of $13.75 took the bulk
of Good and Choice ISO to 270

Cattle estimated salable ami
total receipts 1,200. Calves 1,400.
Slaughter classes of cattle met an
extremely uneven outlet in Mon-
day’s trade hut even so the gen-
eral price trend was definitely

peared weak to 29c or more
lower. Various consignments

organizations that are active in
the salvage program. In niral
areas, the Department of Airricul
