TO THE HEAD OF DEPARTMENT ADDRESSED:

I am enclosing herewith leaflet from the War Production Board giving in-
structions for preparing and submitting application Form PD-408 under
the Governmental Requirements Plan (Federal, State and Local) for prior-
ity assistance on your estimated equipment and maintenance, repair and
operating supply requirements for a three months' period, April 1, 1943
to June 30, 1943.

It is requested that you prepare lists on blank paper, giving your de-
partment or on letterheads, for your requirements as indicated above,
making separate lists for Section A and Section B. On the "Section A"
list, be sure and attach to it a separate sheet giving the "Supporting
Information", answering all six questions. Do not be too brief in this,
but give all essential information. Also in listing your needs, please
arrange them in the order as shown in "Appendix".

On your "Section B" list, be sure and arrange your needs in the same
order as given in "Appendix II".

In preparing both of these lists, please give complete description with
unit prices and the total cost.

It is requested that you prepare your lists so they will reach this
office not later than Monday noon, March 29, 1943, when they will be
combined with lists from other departments. If you have no needs, please
advise this office.

It is suggested you keep in mind that in the latter part of June, lists
will again have to be presented and this leaflet should be placed in
your files.

We believe when this plan is once started the University can more easily
make purchases that need priorities.

Thanking you for your cooperation in this matter, I am
