Show Tapcrmakcrs Plan For Non-Soluble Paper American paper manufacturers have in store for postwar consumers consum-ers a paper that can be soaked and scuffed and yet still remain durable for many hard uses and provide a legible surface for pen and ink. Europe has long had the "exclusive" "ex-clusive" on the process that makes this possible, and Nazi armies had an advantage over their enemies with their paper-made rainproof maps, weatherproof campoulflage pup tents and general purpose weather protection. Now the inventor, J. Scherak, a Czech enginer, is in this country, and the paper industry is ready to transplant non-soluble paper manufacturing to the United States. Products will range from inexpensive paper raincoats to tarpaulins to cover freight cars in transit. The U. S. Army is already using this paper for maps and charts. . '. |
