COLLECTION OF SCRAP
ORDERED IN GERMANY. OLD BOOTS AND CLOTHES WANTED. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.45 p.m.) LONDON, May 16. A Stockholm message says the Reich Minister of Economics, Herr Walter Funk, announced that 60,000 depots had been established for the collection of scrap —old boots, clothes, silk and metal. “Our enemies’ hopes of crippling German resistance must be put to shame,” said Funk. “New material and resources must be produced and our soldiers must be re-equipped and munition workers clothed.” The Germans are being given receipts for scrap, which suggests that the collection is not entirely voluntary, but is subject to Nazi Party control.
