These facts were in themselves
enough TO explode the story Of a
cheap synthetic rubber. but the fol-
lowing extracts from the Cnites
above give definite information that
shows how far from the truth have
been the various rumors which have
emanated from Germany regarding a
rubber substitute:
The imports Of India rubber into
Germany during the years 1911-1913
averaged 2e,340 tons. The British
empire and Brazil furnished consid-
erably more than one half OF the to-
tai imported in 1913, the former sup
plying l0Sl tons and the latter 5556
tons Numerous substitutes for In
dia rubber have been tried. none OF
them. as FAR as is known. have proved
a success. The hopes OF the German
economist. Schulz-AIehrin, that Ger
many might succeed, by production Of
synthetic rubber, not only in making
herself Independent Of foreign sources
of rubber. but even in making other
countries dependent on the German
production OF the substitute. as has
been the case with the coal tar dyes,
appear to be somewhat premature.
Germany Destitute.
o" War has made Importation
impossible and the rubber Industries
have been compelled TO reduce their
production. Large quantities Of old
and scrap rubber have been utilized
for the production OF reEeuerated
rubber and various substitutes have
taken the place OF pure rubber. BIZ

All Have Failed.
For a number Of years German
chemists have been trying to find
workable substitute for India rubber,
but have had no more success hlan
the scientists Of other countries. al
though several inventions Of syn
thetic rubber have been advertised.
Thus, the F'rankrurter Zeitung, of De-
cember 10, 1915, announced the sue
-I11- vi man -4- az L-Al e 4A AAAG AlEeL aA-
tomobile tires Of synthetic rubber by
the Mitteldeutsche Gummiwareufab-
rik Louis Peter a. q. at Frankfurt
on the Main. but the hopes aroused
by the invention have not been full
filled and the exploitation of syn
thetic rubber has been abandoned"
1t looks, therefore, as though the
producers Of rubber in South Amer
lea, Africa and Ceylon need not worry
yet awhile about being put out of
business
