To Limit Use of
Natural Gas In
Seventeen States

The Government clamped down an
embargo against further installa-
tons of gas stoves, gas furnaces and
gas waterheaters in homes, stores and
factories in sections of Maryland and
sixteen other States where the gas
supply is wholly or in part natural
gas.
The embargo is effective March 1
and was ordered by the War Produc-
ton Board. 1t is aimed at "curtail-
ment in the consumption of natural
gas and mixed natural and manu-
featured gas" The action was taken
to assure adequate supplies of gas
for war production.
A consumer now using gas to cook
or heat water is not restricted in such
uses but he may not install a gas
heating system in his home, store or
factory, or convert heating equip
ment now using other fuel to gas.
