The yastness of the Grand Canyon
of the Colorado has been accurately

recently that the first man to make

lives near it.
Major J. W. Powell, accompanied by
few companions, launched his boat
in the placid waters of the Green
river in Utah, and went safely through
the canyon to the quiet stretch of wa
ter on the Arizona-C California border
The Indians early asserted that the
river flowed several hundred miles uu-
der ground. that the canyon contained
falls beside which Niagara was a pig
my and that no boat could live through
the rushing rapids. These reports
seemed possible until Major Powell
proved otherwise, as it Was known
that the river dropped 5000 feet be-
tween the upper end Of the canyon
and the lower and that the water had
cut its way through two mountain
ranges.

I'VE advanced Goodyear prices, as
others did theirs, when the rubber
panic came. Almost in day crude
rubber rose In New York from IS cents
per pound to much over dollar.
THE New York supply was too
small to consider. We cabled our
London people to buy up the pick of
the rubber there. By acting quickly
and paying cash they obtained l.500.-
600 pounds Of the finest rubber.
That big supply of rubber is now
nearly all on the way to the Goodyear
factory In Akron. 1t constitutes til,
best of the London supply
I'VE are using the same grade Of
rubber and the same amount of 1t as
we always have used in these tires.
I'VE are running our factory with
three shifts OF men, twenty-four hours
a day. So long as we remain In this
fortunate position on rubber, we shall
supply tire users at before-war prices
to the limit OF our capacity"
