Farmers' scrap collecting groups proposed

1 Jan 1940

A FIELD GUN ON YOUR FARM? —yes, and perhaps 10 potential Bren guns are lying about in different parts of your farm in the form of discarded ploughs, broken chaff cutters, rusty rail- ings, etc. etc. Devote some time to collecting this scrap iron and steel together. Form a "Scrap Group" with your neighbours, by getting them to do the same. Then, unless you are in touch with a scrap merchant, advise the County Secretary of the N.F.U. or, otherwise, the people at Steel House, London, will put you right.
