FAT FOR BRITAIN
COMMITTEE ANSWERS CRITICISM There was some discussion at the last meeting of the Ashburton Borough Council concerning the disposal of fat collected for Britain, the scheme being criticised by some members of the council. The Canterbury Committee of the “Aid for Britain” campaign answers the discussion thus: “Every pound of fat donated (or sold) under the Aid for Britain appeal goes to the nearest soap works for local use, and releases pound for pound of first-grade edible fat which definitely goes to Britain. All fats (raw or cooked )are wanted from tlie farm or the town —but not burnt or fish fats, which cannot possibly be used.”
The committee urges support, for the local drive, as the need is as urgent as ever.
