Manufacture of radios and phono- graphs for civilian purchases ends April 22, but available stocks wUI be marketed on a flrst-come, first- served basis, with no rationing or priority allocations contemplated. Official order foreshadowed a couple of months ago was issued by the War Production Board Saturday (7) Phonograph Angle - Record company officials don't seem bothered much by the Gov- ernment's cease-production or- der to radio receiver and phono- graph manufacturers. Red light goes on April 22 after which only repair i)arts.wlll be fabri- cated. Since all disc makers are now running virtually at produc- tion capacity to keep up with the demand of the number of phonographs now in use, the or- .der to halt fashioning them doesnt figure to be disturbing. At least not for some time. If repair part making is ever cur- ' tailed then there will be reason to worry. One official pointed out that some receiver manufacturers and distributors already hive enough new machines in reserve to last until late this year. - Another re- peated the above-mentioned ob- servation that his press-machines have all they can do to keep up with present orders and he wasn't giving too much thought to the future, at least not yet- colncident with a War Department annoiucement that juke-box manu- facturers likewise wiU convert their plants to fabrication of military sup- plies. Taperlng-off' of radio production was begun soon after Pearl Harbor, with the Industry limited to declin- ing percentages of IMI output Lat- est order speeds the conversion, spe- cifying no company may use over $500 worth of parts and materials ordered since Feb. 11 (excepting wooden cabinets). With this year's aggregate pro- duction expected to total 3,000,000 units. Federal officials estimate the United States wiU have 60,000,000 re- ceivers in use> serving 87% of Amer- ican homes, when the shut-down oc- curs. This assures ainple coverage in maintaining public morale and keeping the people informed of war developments, govenunent policies, and world happ«nings, it is felt Production of replacement parts will go on, so that tiiere ta UtUe dangeif of ■ decline in the radio audience.
