A FOUNDER H()NORED


A man whose pioneer work in the
cubber industry was destined to
figure prominently in the develop
ment of the automobile but who did
not live to see a ''horseless carriage
was singularly honCred here last
week. His name is DR.. Benjamin
Franklin Goodrich, founder of the
rubber company bearing his name.
Last week marked the golden ami
versary of the founding of the B. T.
Goodrich Rubber Co., the parent
factory of the Rubber City" The
company was incorporated Decem-
Der 81, 1870. Officials and employees
of the company, residents of the city
and thousands of friends and cus,o-
mers throughout the country Joined
in paying tribute to the memory Of
| DR.. Goodrich and in observing the
termination Of full half century of
the company is established.
The rubber industry literally made
/ Akron-changed it in the space of a
few decades from a quiet little mill
ing town of few thousand inhabit-
ants to one of the foremost manufac-
turing centers in the United States.
Consequently, the people of Akron
feel duly grateful to the man who
first brought the industry to the city
and paved the way for future growth.
Fifty years ago when Goodrich was
founded the uses Of rubber were few.
It was just beginning to be appre-
ciated as a factor in industrial life.
Since that time the ingenuity and
inventiveness Of men have created
of this material many thousands of
products which today are absolutely
essential to the continued progress of
the world
DR.. Goodrich, a resident of New
York tsate, was a physician by pro-
fession. However, after serving as
surgeon during the Civil War he
took up real estate and shortly
found himself in possession of a
small rubber factory at Hastings on
the Hudson.
Handicapped by a lack of funds,
his first efforts to operate this fac
tory were unsuccessful. Attracted
by Akron's transportation advantag-
es and n offer of financial assistance
from a group of Akron men, he
brought his equipment to this City.
The manufacture of rubber pro-
ducts was first started by DR.. Good
rich in a small, two-story brick
buildings of brick and steel, covering
be placed in one of the mill rooms
of the present plant. To start with,
the concern employed 25 men. This
little factory of fifty years ago has
grown until teday it comprises 63
buildings of brick atd steel, coveriog
40 acres of land.
The early struggles to finance the
industry were bitter and discouraging
In those days, not nTany persons had
much ia tn in the future Of the rub
Der industry and many of the ori-
ginal stockholders dropped out, fear
ing they would lose everything they
had put into it. DR.. Goodrich's

A TRIBUTE
w. B. Harvey,
Secretary

The sages told in days of past
That he whose name should ever last,
Was measured not by temporal gain
Nor carved on great obliesks of
fame.
But from his service to mankind
Is measured greatness left behind.
Oh! friend whose greatness thou
achieved,
Not thru Ambitions call received,
But from thy service to mankind
Hast thou left greatness now behind,
For from thy Spirit breathed in every
heart
Has come resolve to 'play our part"
Thou canopied above the soul of every
youth
An arch-whose apex signifed but
Truth,
Thou mirrored Character in Honor's
frame
With gifts of Valor and an Honest
name,
Thus should we pause and weep today,
For great soul has passed this way,
tBy p

persistence and optimism, however
finally succeeded in obtaining suffi-
cient capital to enable the company
to start its march toward prosperity
The first big stride in the growth
of the Goodrich came with the popu-
larity of the bicycle. When the high
wheelers gave way to what was call.
ed the f'safety" bicycle, pneumatic
tires were introduced, and Goodrich
speedily took up their manufacture
Before this time, Goodrich had taken
the initial steps in the evolution OF
rubber shod wheels by perfecting the
solid rubber tire for carriages.
The success of this carriage tire
followed by that of the pneumatic
tire for bicycles, naturally led to the
manufacture of tires for automobiles,
The first one made was a crude affair
with many layers of fabric and very
heavy tread. Improvement came
rapidly, however, and by the time
automobiles passed the "freak'
stage, a dependable tire was being
made in quantity.
As the facilities of railways and
shipping were expanded, the world
began to grow more rapidly. So,
when travel and transportation over
the highways were made smoother
and swifter, distances were shorten
ed and it became possible to extend
industrial effort and growth. At
every pont rubber has helped in the
expansion of the transportation faci-
lities of this country.
Although the manufacture of auto
tires was a large factor in the latter
day growth of Goodrich, they are
nevertheless only one branch Of the
organizations production. Mechani-
cal rubber goods, rubber footwear,
druggists rubber sundries, AMI hard
rubber giods also are manufactured
in enormous quantities.
DIR. Goodrich lived TO see the Good
rich organization well started on the
road toward success, even though he
died before the automobile was in
vented. He had done his W. TX we'll
and had trained men to take his place
in developing the industry even fur
ther.
The Goodrich comoany is COM
memofaClng tne 7nilN arSary ny put
kshing an attractive 4S page book
called the Golden Year Of Good
rich" telling of the romance Of the
rubber industry, its hist Dry, and
what great Importance it has been
in the progress ari development of
the world. The book was written by
Wilbur D. Nesbit and illustrated by
W. T. Benda, the famous Polish
American painter.

sion at which resistance ceases
ana then comes an explosion
which rocks the world to its
base" Those are mistaken, he
states, "who may think there
can be an enduring and effective
association of the nations for the
maintenance of peace so long as
those nations are armed to the
teeth solely against each other.
And those are mistaken who
think that, SO long as the pre-
sent military system exists.
there can be any peaceful inter-
national court of arbitration"
We are convinced that those state
ments are profoundly true, and
therefore heartily endorse and urge
upon the favorable attention of the
executive and legislative branches of
our Government, the two proposals
that have been put forward hooking
toward the reduction of armaments
FIRST: That this country shall
enter into an agreement with other
nations for a so-called naval holiday
and refrain from new naval construc-
alon for a period of years.
SECONDS: The even more funda,
mental and important proposal so
convincingly presented by General
Bliss, that this country shall take the
lead in a movement looking toward
a worldwide reduction of armies.
Financial considerations alone are
sufficient to justify these proposals,
But far more fundamental is the
avoidance of future war. May the
United States embrace to the full,
the wonderful opportunity to lead in
a movement that is dictated of hu-
and Christian considera-
tions, and upon which the continua-
tion of our civilization may depend.
On behalf of Philadelphia Yearly
Meeting of the Religious Society of
Friends.
