To All Purchasers of Chlorine:

You will find attached copy of a letter which we have just
received from the War Production Board, requesting that all
shipments of Chlorine made on or after April 1 be shipped
against a three-months! allocation,

It is, therefore, necessary that you send in your order imme-
diately to cover your requirements for the months of April,
May, and June. In the future, all orders must be placed on a
quarterly instead of monthly basis. If you have already sub-
mitted your order for April, please forward a revised order to
cover the specified period.

It is quite possible that you will not receive this informa-
tion in time to file application, so we are estimating your
requirements in order to forward promptly our report to the
War Production Board. Upon receipt of your revised order
covering the quarter, we shall amend our request accordingly.

Your promptness in forwarding your order for the quarter will
indeed be appreciated.

Cordially yours

coe

‘pe Assistant Manager of Sales
