merce yesterday H. A. McKellar,
Los Angeles branch manager of the
Firestone Tire and Rubber COM
pany, gave an interesting account
OF the history of rubber, or
"caucho" as it was originally called
and is still referred to in ell Ian
guages but English. The name
means weeping tree and the first
record of this tree is samples Which
Columbus brought back to Spain
having become interested when he
saw natives of the West Indies
playing with oall made of caucho,
which bounced. McKellar stated
that no particular interest was
shown in so-called caucho until
ITO when Priestly, an English SCI
enlist, experimental and found it
would erase pencil marks He then
put it on the market and from these
erasers, called rubberS, the Eng
lish got the name rubber instead
OF caucho.
In 1871 rubber was first melted
with view to waterproofing cloth
and the speaker stated experiments
were made, none entirely satisfac-
tory, until 1923 when Macintosh,

Scotch scientist, made liquid rub
ber with which to waterproof great
coats, or macintoshes Shortly af-
ter this another scientist, Charles
Goodyear, an American, mixed rub
Der and sulphur and heated 1T,
paving the way for vulcanizing and
the actual development of rubber
products and in 1840 the first pneu-
matte tube was made, followed by
a steady increase in rubber de-
mand until 10000 tons were used in
1900 and in 1917, 1876, 900 tons with
10 to 80 per cent used in America.
Referring to his recent visit in
the east McKellar told of the un-
employment situation in New York,
but stated that conditions in the
United States are not nearly as de-
pressing as in other countries and
although the number of tires sold
in this country fell off 100000 in
1880 over 1929, it is expected that
1881 will be record year for the
rubber industry which is one oi the
key businesses of the country and
plays an important part in the eco
nomic prosperity of the of the
United States. Los Angeles, &C
cording to the speaker, is the sec
ond largest rubber manufacturing
center in the United States with
four of the largest tire manufac-
turers operating factories there and
the optimistic outlook for the rub
Der industry next year is bound 70
bring increased prosperity to Los
Angeles.

GREAT RAILWAY MAN COMING.

Sir Henry Thornton, Chairman and President or the Canadian National Railways, who will be In Junau Sunday, is of the great international transportation figures Born reared educated and trained in the United States he went to England to help that country make its railways perform the extraordinary burdens had thrust upon the countrys transportation facilities He was continued in the British transportation service after the war and in 1918 became Inspector General of Trans portation Later he made British subject and was Knighted
 Sir Henry to Canada in 1922 as Chairman and President of the Canadian National Railways. The Canadian National had been having hard time of it. and was practically insolvent. He insisted before coming that he must have a free hand and that the railways must be kept out of politics The Dominion Government lived up to it's agreement, and Sir Henry in the intervening years has put it on its feet and made it profitable system. The Canadian National Railways has the greatest mileage of any railroad company in the world
 No man in recent times, probably, has achieved so much in railway management and performance as the great who is coming to Juneau.

Ship Owners See Good Times Ahead
(NeW York Times. ]

To be classed among the genuine "psychologi- cal" contributions to good cheer in times of busi- ness depression is The Times special dispatch from Paris announcing that the French Line has decided to build giant liner of Bremen Europa dimensions and speed When shipping company sets out Q spend perhaps $25,OO0000 and three years on bid for ocean supremacy it implies confidence the part of the promoters that the world is not going to the dogs. There will be a United States an1 there will be a Europe and there will be wealthy Americans travelling to Europe de luxe express steamers, whether by the German lines, by the White Star and Cunard vessels already planned, or by the French ship.
 The news about Atlantic passenger traffic in the last six months has been confusing. On the one hand have the apparently official statement that in the off-season up to month ago 5000 fewer Americans had travelled first-cass than last year, and that most of the liners going out with half empty first cabins. On the other hand
 it extremely difficult in practice to good accommodations for early Spring sailings Yesterday the Berengara went out with full passenger list The explanation may be that business conditions hit the super-de-luxe traffic of Winter and early Spring but that Americans still in a position to treat themselves to the regular Summer vaca- ton across seas.

The Apostle of Pure Foods.
(NeW York World.D


 The late Dr. Harvey W. Wiley was partly scien- tis and partly agitator; and like other agitators he sometimes let his zeal outrun discretion As the generassimo of the fight for pure food, he never quite satisfied with what progress was made Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, all seemed to him to falter a fight it was! When Commissioner of Agrcul ture under President Arthur chose this young h. diana chemist to head the little Bureau of Chem istry-with staff of three men-he little thought what he giving the Nation The campaign began with lectures, interviews magazine articles and statistics that compelled press publicity It pro- gressed with the poison squads which fed under the eyes of the whole Naton) upon salicylic acid benboate of soda and coal-tar coorngs. When Congress squared itself to write the Pure Food Act Dr. Wiley invited to hold the pen. He was of the commission appointed to draw up regulations for it's operation He charged under Roosevelt and Taft with the chief work of en- forcement. To the end of his days, as the Wash ington but few days ago reminded us he was the grimmest defender of the legislation, uE- weared in demanding it's strict execution The pure food and pure drugs movement began long ago las Mexican days, it enlisted many devoted men, and at it's height it controlled numerous or ganizations and organs. It caught up acci- dents like "The Jungle" But Dr. Wiley, with his enthusiasm his genuine scientific standing and his lgft for commanding public attention, will be re- membered the chief hero of the fight

THAT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
 MEETING.


 All Alaskans ought to get behind the proposal to have the Western Division of the United States Chamber of Commerce hold it's 1881 sessions in Alaska. The Western Division comprises eleven States and the Territories of Alaska and Hawaii. It has had meetings in all of these, incuing Hawaii In some of these it has met several times. A visit to Alaska by the five six hundred business men that would attend the Chamber of Commerce meeting could not fail to be of lasting benefit to the Territory The visitors would be from every important town of all the eleven Western States and Hawaii. These the States that will furnish markets for lot of our paper when we get the industry under way and they are filled with mining and business men that are interested directly indirectly in mining. By all means let us do what we to bring the meeting to our country.
 And there is no section of it's jurisdiction where the Western Division of the Chamber of Commerce could aid more through becoming acquainted with the people and resources than in Alaska. This Ter ritory has undeveloped resources than any other Western Division commonwealth Its devel- opment would not only help the people who are here and who might come here but it would offer to the West in the way of larger markets thai anyone thing that is in sight The Chamber of Commerce ought 10 come to Alaska for the good of the entire West.

A Successful Campaign.
Cincinnati Enquirer.0

The beneficial results that be obtained through systematic campaign of safety education are illustrated in the record of railway injuries and fatalities for the last years In 1924 the safety section of the American Railway Association adopted a resolution calling for 35 per cent re- duction in casualties to persons by the end of 930 and intensive plan of education begun
 By the end of 1929, shown by the records for that year, virtually all railroads of the first class had reached the goal of 35 per cent, and some had gone far beyond it. As the campaign con- tinues the safety section reports that 1880 may show a reduction of approximately 50 per cent. ia casualties compared to the figures for 1923 Tn 1929 nearly 1000 less killed and about 100000 fewer injured than in 1923. While of the rail- ways, and trespassers, have benefited greatly from the safety campaign, the work of the safety section has ben particularly helpful to railway ployees duty. Injuries in this class have shown a steady decline from 151 960 in 1923 to 60000 in 1929
 railway safety worker suggests that the real cause of sweeping accident reduction is that every accident, whether to equipment to person. and Inc matter how trivial is thoroughly investigated the responsibility placed and usually discipline ad minstered." This method of supervision is commended to safety workers in the motor-car field While it would be impossible for the State any other agency to check up the thousands ot minor automobile accidents, the prompt reporting lof mishaps involving injury or serious damage tc property undoubtedly would have good effect.

REARRANGING POPULATION RANK
 OF STATES.

California is easily the premier American State insofar rapidty of growth is concerned. The 1880 census returns shows that she has gained since 1920 2.215,000 inhabitants. New York, which has shown the second greatest gain increased 1.840000 in the ten years Michigan with gain of 1l50.00O0 in creased slightly more than Illinois which has l. 145,0O0 inhabitants than in 1920. Michigan has passed Massachusetts sipce 1920 and California has passed both of them, taking her place as the sixth State, at least and possibly the fifth That will be settled when hear from Texas The Lone Star State will have to show an increase of 980oO0 her 1920 totals to hold her position as fifth State That is about 100000 than she gained between 1910 and 1920 California gained 105000O in the decade preceding 1920 and Texas gained 770o00. However, all of the large Texas cities have shown tremendous gains and while the poppy State will undoubtedly close up to a much narrower margin than the l236o0o that separated her from the yellow State in 1920 the chances seem to be that Texas will hold her place fifth State.
