CARDBOARD CONTAINERS

Wellington, Aug. 28. The effect of the Cardboard Box and Car ( on Control Notice issued last night will be to conserve material and simplify production by the elimination of ornate and fancy designs. The notice prevents boxmakers from launching out into the manufacture of new designs, and confines the types of cartons or boxes to certain specified sizes and shapes. Any manufacturer who has in hand a stock of containers that do not comply with the requirements of the notice may sell or dispose of them before Januady 1 next. The notice also prevents any person from producing any carton or cardboard box printed in more than two colours unless he had produced the same kind of container before the notice was gazetted. Manufacturers are also reo.uired to reduce the number of colours used in over-printing containers in all cases where a reduction will spell a saving of time and material. The Minister of Supply and Munitions (Mr. Sullivan) said last evening that these steps had been taken to give manufacturers an opportunity of coning with the heavy demands for cardboard.
