Description

Joe Howard Morris (left) and Paul Holley gathering iron for a scrap iron campaign driven by President Roosevelt in Palo Pinto, Texas. "Palo Pinto is collecting old iron as well as old rubber. Joe Howard Morris and Paul Holley are iron gatherers." The two young men are standing in front of a pile of iron scraps, including what looks to be a discarded cooking range. The two are triumphantly holding up what appears to be an old iron tub.
