Identifier: CAC_CC_047_1_3_49_0011

Scope and Contents

The Shilliam Supply Co. Inc. is writing to Honorable George Schwabe to address the serious situation facing mattress manufacturers due to a shortage of tickings. Many manufacturers have been forced to operate part-time or shut down completely, impacting their ability to pay taxes. The shortage is attributed to high demand from the military and OPA ceilings preventing mills from making profits on tickings. The company is requesting Schwabe's assistance in getting relief for the mattress industry.
