Make your scrap tires save lives. Life rafts like this, standard equipment on American war planes that fly over stretches of open water, have saved the lives of many air crews. Men have been rescued after floating in them for weeks. The ten pounds of rubber in one of these vitally important rafts is about the amount of rubber in a worn automobile tire ready for scrapping

A black and white photo of a man on a boat, possibly related to: Aboard a trawler (locally called a dragger). The power-driven winch lets out the starboard net. While over fishing grounds one of two nets is constantly in the water, dragging along the bottom. Boats are powerful, diesel-engined, between forty and seventy-five feet long. Their unrestricted use has done much to cause the "fish-famine" along this coast because nets bring up everything, fish, minnows and even spawn. Provincetown, Massachusetts
