TO THE DEPARTMENT HEAD aDDRESSED:

The War Production Board has included typewriter
ribbon spools and adding machine spools in cur-—
tailnent restrictions so this will mean that
some method of accumulating used typewriter rib-—
bon spools and adding machine spools for re-use
is now essential,

It is proposed that we start immediately to ac-
cumulate typewriter ribbon spools and so hereafter
in order for you to secure a new typewriter ribbon,
it will be necessary for you to turn in a used
typewriter ribbon spool. These spools should be
handled carefully to avoid damaging.

Please note that nothing but empty spools are to
be turned in, All used ribbons should be removed,
It is also requested that all empty tin containers
for the typewriter ribbons be turned in at the
same time,

Thanking you for your cooperation in this matter,
I am

Yours very truly,
