Mrs. Blossom Kaplitt, of Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn, New York (second from left) explains to Brooklyn housewives, whom she has enlisted in tin can salvage drive, how to prepare collected tin cans for the Department of Sanitation trucks. Since March 15th, she has organized twenty-five large apartment houses in the Borough Park section into units for salvage work.
