THE STATES
WAR FRONT

Steel, the raw material for
victory, is diverted almost en-
tirely to the war effort by a
sweeping order issued by the
war production board. The order
which will halt the use of iron
and steel in the manufacture of
more than 400 major commodi-
ties, gives a previeW of our all
out war economy, as far as
familiar commodities of the
home are concerned.
The steel order is so drastic
and far-reaching that as time
passes it will work major chan
ges in the American way of life.
Scores of things that have been
accepted as essential to our
standard of living no longer will
be made after a 90-day taper
ing off period and gradually
will disappear from dealers
shelves.
The businessman will find his
surroundings changed by the
choking off of office machinery
OF all kinds, advertising novel
ties, letter chutes, openers and
trays, lockers and telephone
booths. The housewife will be
unable to buy new book-ends,
teapots, cutlery, bread boxes,
butter knives and cake cutters.
The glamour girl will have to
mold on to her present lipstick
holders and compacts, and the
athlete will look in vain for
many types of new sporting
goods.
Only two metals, the order
specifies, may be used as substi-
tutes for iron and steel, and
these are gold and silver.
