new importance today because of
the War Produation Board’s ban
on the use of copper and its al
loys such as brass and bronze in
many civilian articles. Seems that
one-third the pins manufactured in
1940 and 1941 were made With
brass, and we’re told the remainder
of the country’s pins were made of
steel, and their production is limi

AFTER A HARD DAY ON THE JOB...
King Cotton
certainly
hasn’t
been snubbed in the war effort.
Cotton is being used for the im
portant business
of camo-uflage
Sand-colored materal helps in dis
guising waterfronts. Ammunition in
forests can be concealed by some
of the designs developed, and some
of the others match gravel and
field. Besides its use as camou
flage cloth, cotton has other war
uses such as for sand bags and
agricultural bags. Certain percen
tages of cotton textile facilities
have been ordered converted to
military use.
Shoppers don’t forget when the
maximum price regulation goes in
to effect on retail goods May 18,
that charges are fixed on indivi
dual store levels. Consequently one
dealer’s charges for the same ar
ticle may be more than that asked
across the way. The shopkeeper
may charge for each article the
highest price he asked during the
base period, March of this year.
After May 18, stores are required
to post the ceiling price of many
representative items*
SELF-CLEANING PAINTS
Research‘chemists have produced
self-cleaning house paints, which
remove dirt by the action of wind,
rain and sun.
