ton from the draft.

as an embargo against all others, but
the effect is to defer the requirements
of all other industries and plants until

four classes according to their relative
Importance. No distinction, however,
has been made between any of the in
dustries or plants within n one class
and 1t was explained that no signif-
canoe is. to be attached to the order in
which they are listed within any class.
The industries or plants under Class 1
are of exceptional Importance and in

naming classes.

ordnance and small arms plants and
ammunition and explosives.

basis of operation.
Each plant listed in the three last
classes will be required to file with the
War Industries board before the 18th

during the preceding month. Failure
to comply with this order will mean
