Abstract

The article reports on the waste paper drive in 33 cities in the Eastern States in 1941. It discusses the growing number of households and businesses that are converting waste paper to cash. The Times Square Hotel Association has been selling their old menus for cash, while one man sold 75,000 dollars worth of 1929 bonds for their paper value to aid the campaign. Efforts of the Conservation Committee of the Waste Paper Consuming Industries are highlighted.
