Camphor Control Ties Japan to US Explosives Supply
A San Francisco Chronicle piece argues camphor, a key ingredient in smokeless powder and celluloid, is mostly controlled by a Japanese monopoly. It questions US reliance on foreign sources, notes most camphor comes from Formosa and Japan, and warns of supply risks if wartime or trade barriers disrupt imports. It cites limited domestic production and reveals high dependence on Japanese control for munitions and industrial materials.
