tires have been obtained from asphal-

on by treating with sulphur. This
sulphurization of asphalt has even
been applied with good effect to elat-
erite and similar hard asphalts from
eastern Utah. The extension of this
interesting bessemerIzing process
holds out attractive possibilities for
example, that the same raw material
may be used in both the elastic tire
