Description
Old autos are stacked 10-deep . . . at the Alter Company scrapyard. Manager Jake Barnes surveys the mountains of old junkers that is being added to every day. The company is in the process of installing a new process that will turn 800 junk cars a day into reusable metal. The new equipment has such an appetite that Alter will have to seek junk cars from other states to keep the machine in operation. -- Nonpareil Photo by Jack Kennedy
