Harmonica lore and wartime shortages color postwar youth
The article recalls how harmonicas were cherished by boys before and during World War II, noting wartime shortages as factories shifted to war production and imports dwindled. It mentions a rebound as American plants convert back and a government unit plans to release Japanese models, with German imports following. It also cites a new agricultural spray protecting fruits and vegetables from fungal attacks, enabling smoother market sale.
