Any complaints of housewives who
save their grease and have their lo-

should be sent to the Salvage Kivi-

Hill Searbrough Building, Austin.
The complaints will give the Govern-
ment a chance to iron out the col-

Meanwhile, each and every Texan
housewife is urged to continue the
good work she has done in the pa*t
and save each and every drop of
kitchen grease not necessary for her
own needs.

Household Fats
Needed To Produce
War Materials
Austin, Texas, June 15.—With the
long-awaited invasion of Europe now
in full swing the national salvage
effort takes on greater significance
—becomes, in fact, almost as im-
portant as each mile gained by our
fighting men across the seas. With-
out the salvage effort those men
would be denied essential materials
and the miles infinitely harder to
gain.
Complaints of patriotic Texas
housewives that they could not dis-
pose of Used Household Fats after
they had labored over the distaste-
ful task of salvaging kitchen grease
have been received by the Salvage
Division of the War Production
Board, according to A. Patrick
Flood, State Salvage Chairman.
In all thickly populated areas of
Texas there is a regular pick-up
service whereby trucks collect the
used fats accepted by butchers and
storekeepers.
In outlaying and rural communi-
ties the storekeeper can ship his
collected fats to the nearest render-
er by American Railway Express.
There is no charge to the merchant
for availing himself of this system.
He merely puts his fats in a con-
tainer, addresses it and calls the
nearest express office. They will
pick it up and ship it collect, says
Mr. Flood, and the contained will

Druggists Cancel
Dallas Convention
In co-operation with efforts of the
Office of Defense Transportation to
eliminate as much convention travel
as possible, the Texas Pharmaceuti-
cal Association, composed of drug-
gists and pharmacists, has called off
its annual convention which was to
have been held in Dallas, June 14
and 15.
The association officers arranged
to meet in Austin June 15 to tran-
sact necessary business.
H. C. Burroughs, president of the
association, told E. P. McCallum, Jr.,
Dallas, regional director of the High-
way Transport Department of the
ODT, that the association wanted to
help out in the effort to leave travel
accommodations for vital military
and war production needs.
Colonel Johnson
Warns Vacationists
If you start on a vacation trip and
find yourself stranded this summer,
don't blame the Office of Defense
Transportation. Col. J. Monroe
Johnson, director of the ODT, has
issued a statement that cancellation
of Pullman and other travel reser-
vations may come at any time on
account of the vital need of accom-
modations to handle traffic in con-
nection with the invasion of Europe.
Wounded fighters soon will be ar-
riving in large numbers at seaports
and they will have to be taken to
hospitals for temporary treatment
and then, in many instances, will
have to be moved for permanent
hospitalization. Their needs will
take precedence over all others.
