Razor Blade Hoarding Sparks War Board Reply
The War Production Board says razor blade output will fall to the 1940 monthly average, ensuring a fully adequate supply despite a rush by consumers. Dan A West directs the consumer division to urge calm, calling blade hoarding selfish and unpatriotic while noting production will still reach about 2.4 billion blades this year. Local druggists report some stockouts but sales easing toward normal as fear subsides.
