AN IMPORTANT INDUSTRY
Opening Of Auto Oak Leather Com
pany Factory Monday

Down at Maud Junction, just beyond
the city limits, the busy whirl Of wheels
viii tomorrow announce the opening Of
the Auto Oak Leather company's new
plant. This plant. composing four large
buildings, covering 10000 square feet of
floor space and fitted up with the latest
improved machinery. makes a valuable
addition to the manufacturing indus
tries Of Los Angeles. while the process
used bids fair to revolutionize entirely
the tanning industry--the turning OF
hides into leather The factory has a
capacity Of 24O hides-4sO sides OF
leather-a day, and while under the
oak-tannlng process 100 days Is required
to turn hides into leather, auto-oak
leather Is manufactured in thirty days
or less. A secret chemical process la
used which not only vastly reduces the
time of manufacture but produces what
is claimed to be far superior article
of leather. Besides the ordinary uses.
auto-oak leather will be made into
automobile tires. 1t is asserted that
these "anti-rubber'' tires will outwear
the rubber article and that they will
neither puncture nor Hskid.r
Auto-oak leather is entirely a home
industry. The inventor Of the process
]. 3. Hentzy, is a Los Angeles leather
worker who wrought with the problem
nine years before the discovery came.
The company is composed of Los An
geles men and about $4,000 of Los An
eeles money has been spent in building
and equlpping the plant. The opening
Of this fine factory emphasizes the
declaration that the manufacturing era
in Los Angeles has actually begun.
