Prefabricated Panels Use
Gets Conditional Approval

Washington builders have been
told they may use prefabricated
plumbing panels in housing con-
struction here, provided the as
sembly can be inspected and tested
and that the materials meet city
plumbing regulations
The announcement was made by a
committee organized by the Com
missioners last January 80 to con-
slider revisions in the city building
code which might aid housing con-
struction without lowering present
standards.
In connection with the use of the
prefabricated panels-wall sections
with the pipes already imbedded-
the committee felt the assembly
could be used without any change
in the present code The committee
is headed by Assistant Engineer
Commissioner Kenneth E. Madsen.

Life-saUing Sulfa Drugs,
 PLastics Output Threatened

New York, Nov. 3O-(UP)-The coal strike threatened today to cur tail possibly suspend, production of the life-Saving sulfa drugs and many of the new postwar plastic materials.
 The situation in some companies, informed sources disclosed, is more serious than others in that they are still handicapped because of short ages caused by the coal strike last Spring.
 Coal tar derivatives are the. basic chemicals for many synthetic pro- ducts, including the sulfa drugs such as sulfathiazole and sulfadia1ne which rank almost as high as peIli- cillin in effectiveness against disease and infection.
 While chemical houses expressed concern over their dwindling supplies of pyridine, a necessary chemical for the production of the Sulfa drugs, the plastic industry said flatly that it would be paralyzed if the strike continues more than month.
 And that may mean another de. lay in getting that new telephone be- cause most all telephone set receiv. CTS and transmitteTs are made from plastic materials.
 "The plastic industry is SO inter. dependent upon coal that it will be paralyzed in 6 short time," c. w. Blount. vice.president of the Bake lite Corp, said.
 A similar view was held by Neil O. Broderson, president of the Society of the Plastic Industry, who said:
 "A prolonged strike will paraly1e our industry"
 Said Felix N. Williams, vice-pres- ident of Monsanto Chemical Co.,,
 "A prolonged coal strike will par alyze the plastics industry along with most of the chemical industry. since bosh industries are based on the use Of benzol. There is no stockpile oG
