A 1921 Iron Age trade article describing how the Crompton & Knowles Loom Works of Worcester, Mass., handled scrap through a committee formed in 1917. It explains how steel, pipe, wood and tool scrap was reworked into washers, gudgeon rings, gear blanks, collars, studs and shafts for loom construction, and how the remainder was sold. It includes cost savings figures and a sketch of the reclaimed parts. The focus is on factory management of a loom manufacturer, not on weaving.
