Tire Manufacturers Require 4 Per Cent
 of Worlds Cotton

Nearly four per cent of the worlds cotton production for 1920 vii be used in the manufacture of pneuma tic automobile tires-a total con- sumption of approximately 100000 bales.
 The 1920 production of tires in the United States should approxi- mate 40,000,000 to equip nearly l. 5OO,000 new cars and to maintain about 7,0OO,OOO now in operation.
 Cotton promises to remain inde- finitely as indispensable in tire making as rubber.
 These startling figures are given by Elliott H. Barnwell, manager of the cotton and faric division of a large tire company. He estimates that the only bar to further expan- sion of the pneumatic tire industry might possibly be the limit to fabri- cation capacity of yarn and cotton mills.
 Many motorists wonder how muc9 cotton goes into the manufacture Of pneumatics. Tires now contain an average of four pounds-an increase of one pound due to the increasing number of pneumatic truck tires. which require more cotton because of their size. Much of the cotton used is Egyptian or Peruvian. The larger companies use the cream oi the worlds crops-the one and one eighth inch staple or better-thc kind of cotton for which Jefferson county is famous. A few of the larger companies will make more than half the years output-the re- mainder will be divided among more than 23O smaller concerns.
 To keep pace with demand, the company is expanding operations in it's textile plants. The mills at Goodyear, Conn, will be enlarged to house 30,000 new spindles, 176 new houses for employees will be started within 30 days and new tire fabric mill on the Pacific coast will be operating soon.
