Mrs. America
Meets thz War
Enough reptile leather for more
than one million pairs of shoes for
women and girls has been made
available by an amendment to a
war production order. Previous
WPB conservation orders limiting
colors of leather for shoes hesulted
in a freeze of genuine and imita
tions reptile leather in the hands of
.'hoe manufacturers, and tanners.
However, the amendment makes it
possible for this tytpe of leather
finished prior to October 16, 142 to
be used, but the, reptile leather can
not be combined with other types
of leather. Another feature of the
amendment prohibit the manufac
ture of leather bows for shoes.
Mrs . America can be certain of
obtaining useful and well-wearing
types of blankets despite the War
Production Board Conservation Or
der reducing the variety and sizes
of cotton, rayon and wool covers.
No blankets will be made longer
than 84 inches except whitte cotton
eheet blanket which are limited to
95 inches in length. Each line of
blankets is also limited to no more
tra four colors plus white, and the
multidesigned blankets are re
stricted to combinations which do
not take more than four color plus
white. Before the order, a single
.line had as many as 15 different
colors. It is expected that the num
ber of blankets produced will be
increased by the material savings
of the conservation order.
The carriage trade will be served
despite mileage rationing, just as
long as it's Mrs. America's Jun
ior. For the WPB has allowed the
production of baby carriages to be
increased to match the demands of
the war. Strollers, baby walkers,
and sulkies also are permitted to be
manufactured by June 30.
Used washing machines have be
come so valuable ince production
of new models stopped that the
OPA has set dollars and cents max
imum prices on all sales of used
washers by individuals and dealers
alike. The regulation, which be
came effective May 3, also sets a
ceiling on rental charges of used
washing machines. The new price
ceilings should eliminate any ex
cessive prices which might be ask
cauee of a heavy demand for this
scarce equipment.
In nearly every field of business scene has a great advantage over
enterprise, the first man on the his competitors.
