AUTO BRINGS NEW CHANCE
TO THE C0LORED MAN

That the automobile has become valu-
able innovation to the colorCd men who
are willing 20 learn is a fact d us rated
every day and as a result there are col
ored men at the present ime max ng sal
aries Of from 500 upward per month who
were formerly simply stable men or work.
men of all sorts about the country places
Of the rich in the cities.
When the automobile became the fad
chauheurs were scarce and to get q good
white man for the place large salaries
were required The result was that the
moneyed people began to educate the
colored stable men I'm the operation Of the
machines and now many of them are
among the most expert chauneurs and
are paid fancy prices when they have
proven them pelves reliable, Many OF
hem have employment at a good figure
he year around. In the summer they tour
he country with the cars Of theiI en-
oyers and IN the winter act as coach
men OF footmen with the fancy turn
outs. The positions are good ones and
many of them have special privileges and
read a "rake-of" from repairs or sup
plies for the machines. The automobile
has been a good thing for the colored
population and the instruction does moi
take any extended time. but II a man
wishes to be good repair man It re-
luires much experience and hard work.

NEW RUBBER
AREAS NEEDED

Until new areas where rubber can be
successfully cultivated are br-ug L into
use. the public VIII have to pa, more for
IT'S waterproof footwear. On September
20 an advance of Ia per cent. wa, made
by the manufacturers In the pr ce Of rub
bcrs and oveishoes. This followed SINH
lar advance on May /, making a u l. per
cent increase since he last r.. bbef shoe

break in the crude rubber ma Net comes
IN the meantime. wholesalers say that
another advance will be nee, s4ary b, Jan
uary l.
The retailers. as these increased prices
distribute themselves through he trade,
are likely TO make the chance .e.t by the
so-called ultimate consumer" He may
be consoled. however, by the renec. ion
that the advance are Moderate N view
Of the changed prices OF raw material Il
is now quoted at $40 a pound. whereas
it's normal value in very recent years has
been less than half of that. That it Is tie
tail end Of the season and that quotation
marks something of an emerge. cy value.
The manufacturer who now goes out
after any crude rubber virtually has to
hunt for it.
While the automobile tire chiefly ac-
counts for the present scarcity Of rubber
it doubted II the Increase in retail
prices there will be so marked a in the
simpler oods of which rubbe. Is { main
ingredient. Prices Of tires were or na.ly
established on so liberal a ias.s al sub-
sequent advances in Jaw nae ave
come largely out of the ma a ture -
creasng competition as thus te dly
taken up" much Of the movement in the
price Of the raw mate al But the pro-
duccrs Of articles Of apparel and mechan-
les. of which rubber is the main I gre
dent, II sold in a competitive asis, must
refer all advances In raw material to the
consumer.
Il is interesting in this connection 70
note that 80 recently as i)0f. government
statistics showed that 9 ali Of Amer ca s
immense volume OF rubber used in man
ufacture went into footwear. The rest
was distributed among articles oo diver =

The rubber problem Is one Of the most
serious with which the indus rial world
has TO deal Scores OF subs itutes have
been prposed. Experiments I'm this u O

ofnce is loaded with projec g; and Vt for
certain uses nothing seems TO take the
place Of the real article.
The greatest encouragement in the
present situation comes from the cult
