WIN THE WAR WITH WASTE Reclaim for... NATIONAL PURPOSES Make this Your Free Contribution as a Patriotic Effort! The object of the National Council established by the Government is to organise and control efforts for the reclamation of waste material. The income resulting from collecting activities will be a valuable contribution to the funds being devoted to patriotic purposes. HE AN APPEAL BY THE HAMILTON COMMITTEE OF THE NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR THE RECLAMATION OF WASTE MATERIALS (A war activity under appointment by the Minister ol Supply, The Hon. D. G. Sullivan) Help to Win the War ! SAVE SCRAP METALS ASSIST THE PATRIOTIC FUND AND NEW ZEALAND INDUSTRY ! Supplies of the following metals are urgently needed. They are listed in order of Importance. Although the amount in YOUR home may seem small, in the aggregate the supplies from ALL homes will amount to many tons. Hand in YOUR scrap metal to your Local Committee or Receiving Depot. MAKE THIS YOUR FREE CONTRIBUTION AS A PATRIOTIC EFFORT. METALS NOT YET WANTED: Wrought iron and steel, old number plates, tins, corrugated and galvanised iron. NOT WANTED YET— Cast iron should be held for later collection. CUT OUT THIS ADVERTISEMENT AND KEEP IT IN A PROMINENT PLACE! HAMILTON ACTS! IN Hamilton and the surrounding districts there must be tons of waste, many articles of which contain much or little of the metals sought after by the National Council for the reclamation of waste materials. Discarded and stored away in the attics and lumber rooms of homes, in back gardens and back yards, in garages, on farms and in sundry other places, articles, useless to and looked upon by the owner as “junk” are now to play their part in WINNING THE WAR. Singularly the articles are useless, but collectively their value becomes inestimable. Hamiltonians and nearby residents are therefore urged to co-operate in the collection of waste and to gather together all the desired metals (as described on left) and leave them at the HAMILTON COLLECTION CENTRE BOROUGH COUNCIL DEPOT, WARD STREET. THE HAMILTON BOROUGH COUNCIL has made arrangements to collect, within the borough, all articles of a cumbersome nature. Ring 4030 or 3226 and a collector will call. The borough lorries are at your disposal. (Donors of waste are respectfully requested to read carefully the class of scrap metals required and not to bring to the depot or ring for a collector unless their waste consists of any of the metals now so urgently needed). Old motor tyres are not required at present. HAMILTON CHILDREN PARTICIPATE TO FURTHER THE project and to assist in the collection children attending all the Hamilton primary and secondary schools are commencing a drive on Monday and it is earnestly hoped that much valuable waste will be given to these collectors, all of whom, like their elders, are eager to “do their bit" for their country. Every resident is asked to remember that reclamation of waste and its proper utilisation will help to keep our workshops and factories busy and will provide assistance to the patriotic funds. “SAVE ALL AND WIN ALL” This is YOUR War Effort - Ad NOW! ENQUIRIES WILL BE GLADLY ANSWERED BY ALL DEPARTMENTS OF THE HAMILTON BOROUGH COUNCIL. IF IN DOUBT RING 4030 or 3226 for further information.
