There has been an unprecedented demand for mouth-organs to send to our soldiers and sailors at the front. An important firm has stated that in addition to the 4,000 mouth organs for soldiers, now on their way from Switzerland, they had an order for 10,000 for the sailors, placed by one customer, and in addition to those large orders they had sold nearly 4,000 since the war broke out, nearly all of which had been intended for the troops.
Another large firm admitted that they were sold out, but could sell huge numbers more if they could obtain them; but practically the only sources of supply now were Switzerland and the United States.
