Conservation. Scrap iron and steel. Auto "graveyards" where old worn out automobiles are stripped of usable parts. Non-ferrous materials are burned out and the steel chassis and bodies are sent on to scrap iron and steel dealers. Such yards as these supply tons of scrap iron, steel and rubber yearly which is now being used to alleviate shortages in vital defense materials (U.S. Route 1, Baltimore-Washington Highway, August 1941)

Salvage. Backwoods auto graveyard. Maybe the one that got away was bigger, but this is a fair-sized catch for Uncle Sam's scrap drive. From the depths of a small lake near Zachow, Wisconsin hundreds of ancient jalopies are being resurrected by a Zachow auto dealer, who had been dumping cars into the lake for 20 years. A grappling hook, operated from a cable-way system, brings in the old chassis shown here

An entire automobile chassis and body are compressed into a small cube for shipment to steel mills where the scrap is converted into new steel. Sheet metal must be baled in this way to prevent its burning up in the fierce heat of the open hearth furnaces
