WPB REPORTS IMROVED
IMPORTS OF SHELLAC
Because the outlook for in­
creased imports of shellac now
appears brighter than at any
time during the last two years,
the W ar Production Board in
a release issued March 8, 1944
that it is planning to amend A l­
location Order No. M -106 to
make some of the h i g h e r
grades of shellac available for
civilian uses. The contemplated
amendment also would elimin­
ate l a r g e amounts of paper
work, W PB said.
Proposals for easing the re­
strictions were discussed at a
meeting of W P B ’s Shellac In­
dustry Advisory Committee to­
day. The members agreed with
W PB officials that some relax­
ation of the restrictions is desir­
able at this time.
W PB representatives a l s o
announced at the meeting that
plans are being made for eas­
ing present restrictions on in­
ventories under the order.
In view of the fact that shel­
lac is an important ingredient
in the manufacture of phono­
graph records, easing up of the
restrictions may enable a great­
er volume of p h o n o g r a p h
record production. Music ma­
chine operators will welcome
the return of m o r e adequate
supplies of records.
