According to the early announcement by the NPA in Washington, the firm had made application for critical materials to build four stores in Texas, at Wichita Falls, Amarillo, Longview and Midland, at a cost of more than $3,700,000, but that the application was denied because the buildings are not concerned directly with national defense. The NPA explained that shortage of steel, copper and aluminum will be critical and will curtail building in the first quarter of the new year. However, it held open Federated's right to apply again for the second quarter, when shortage is not expected to be as acute.
