TO OUR CHLORINE CUSTOMERS

The Office of Production Management have placed
Chlorine under 100% allocation.

We expect to take care of our customers in the usual
manner during Januery, but needs must be guided by
allotments specified by OPM beginning with the month
of February.

We are, therefore, attaching one copy of "Instructions
for Preparation of Form PD-190" and four copies of
Form PD-190. Please note that persons requiring
Chlorine must place their orders with us on or before
the 10th day of the month preceding that in which
they require Chlorine. Therefore, the forms should
be in our hands by January 10 covering the Chlorine
required for February.

Only a small quantity of instructions and forms have
been received, so we have had additional forms printed.
We realize that time will not allow all customers to
forward to us the 10th of January, but please rush
them as soon es possible, and we will try to get them
in to the Office of Production Management so that they
can determine your February allotment.

We are informed this method of securing Chlorine must
pe followed each month until further notice.
