THE record of closing daily prices ON
the Rubber Exchange OF New YORK
shows the lowest quotation OF this year

price has been increasing quite steadily
to 2.62 cents on June 18, 2.68 on July 3,
2.78 on July is and 295 at the close OF
last week.
Indications of further reduced pro-
duction on plantations IN the Middle
East and the sudden discovery that
stocks Of rubber in Singapore June 80
were $4,000 tons lower than originally
reported, have contributed to the ad-
vance in the price of crude rubber.
rather than definite signs Of increased
rubber consumption, although United
States June consumption figures as an
nounced were much above trade antict-
pations.
This latter fact was considered. how
ever, as the temporary result Of the i'm
position Of sales tax on tires late in
June and likely to react on the con-
sumption in later months.
United Kingdom June consumption
also increased, and it is certain that
world absorption in June exceeded
world shipments, condition which even
though 1t may result from temporary
causes, is nevertheless encouraging after
nearly three years of excess production.
1t is perhaps q coincidence that in 1891
June world absorption also exceeded
world shipments, the only month in
1881 when this occurred"

turers as well-believe the restoration Of
volume buying in the motor car market
is merely question of time and that
the wait cannot be long extended. Aside
from the great numbers of cars that
have gone to the scrap heap this year,
they say, hundreds Of thousands of
others are headed for the same Valhalla
Of the motor car.
Thousands Scrapped.
While admitting that q somewhat
similar theory was advanced in the
earlier months of the restricted buying
period, this philosophically- inclined
element in the industry holds that 1t
is more susceptible of mathematical
proof today than at any time during the
last two years. They cite sharply re-
dueed registration figures to prove that
many thousands of cars have been
scrapped. Then they show that the
total new-car sales so far this year do
not nearly equal normal replacement
volume.
The total registration of motor
vehicles in the United States in 1890
reached its high point Of 26,523, ,779.
Last year II had fallen to 25,8l4,l03,

A more favorable view of weather

was a partial reaction under selling by
commission houses and local traders.
Offers were moderate, however, and the
undertone was steady. The fact that

to check new buying and there was a
noticeable disposition to await the Gov

the Farm Board in connection with its

Associated Press Business Writer.

DETROIT, July 30.-One of the
normal problems of the automobile in
dustry that has been less conspicuous
this year has been the used car. Leaders
in the trade explain this is due in no
small degree to the fact that the used
car is being used"
They agree, of course, that most of
the new car transactions the sales
divisions have been able to make have
involved also a traded-in car, but the
great majority of such vehicles, they
point out, commanded no great al
lowance. While the retail organizations
are eager to make sales, conditions
throughout the industry this year have
been such that dealers, who have been
readjusting their merchandising per-
sonnel in efforts to cut down sales costs,
could not well afford to reduce the
margin of profit on new cars by
eXorbitant trade-in allowances.
Avoid Overlooking.
Leaders OF the motor car industry
for some time have been stresSlng what
they have termed the evils OF vicious
merchandising practices" BY this they
meant the form of competition among
retailers that led one to offer greater
allowances than another for an old car
rendered as part payment on new
one. While there still are instances
where the potential buyer has been able
to obtain greater allowance on his useo
car from one dealer than another, III
general the merchandising division has
been more careful than ever to AVOID
overlooking with used cars.
Shortly after the collapse OF the
motorcar market late in 1929, the retali
division came in for considerable cru
cism from the manufacturing division
for having accepted hundreds OF thou-
sands Of used vehicles in exchange 1or
new ones without considering the diff
Guilty Of liquidating the more or less
vorn-out cars. The retail division
answered by accusing the producers OF
having forced a hitherto unequaled
pace for the merchandising outlets.
Then the manufacturing and diStrlb-
uting divisions got together and agreed
that the closest sort of cooperation
must exist between them. The factory
took a more active interest in the sales
room and the dealers, even though they
financed themselves, welcomed the fac
tory assistance.
Eliminate Bargain Hunter.
Executives with years of experience in
the producing division were sent into
the field to coach the dealers and their
service departments, and in various
other ways concerned themselves more
than ever in the welfare Of the dealer
and his business.
Many of the dealers who have so
adjusted their affairs as to find it pos
sible to operate profitably even under
the restriction volume of the current
year are quite willing to have the used
car kept in use a while longer. In fact,
all of them would like to have it used
up. This school of thought in the
trade sees in the continued use Of the
used car the ultimate elimination for
sented by the bargain hunting buyer
with q nearly worn-out motorcar.

the retailers-and among the manufac-

delegates shall be elected a certain
number of days before the opening
OF the state convention. Waterbury
will direct the makeup of the roll
call for the state convention this
year due to the fact that J. Francis
Smith of this city Is state secretary.
Work on the roll call, necessarily
will have to await the election OF
the state delegates. Chairman Crary
said this morning that he has yet
to be notified from state head
quarters as to the total number of
delegates to which this city Is en-.
titled in the state convention.
Two years ago Waterbury sent
20 delegates to the state convention.
Chairman Crazy stated today. how
ever, that he would not be surprised
II Waterbury's delegation this year
totalled 80 or SO. The number of
delegates Is based on the number
Of votes cast in the previous state
election. Waterbury polled very
large vote two years when Cover
nor Wilbur L. Cross was victorious.
Therefore, it Is believed that this
city's representation at Hartford
will show an increase this year.
Waterbury is known as one OF
the ardent Smith-for-P President cit
les Of Connecticut. Therefore. the
larger the delegation is from here
the more strength the former New
York governor will show in the
state convention.

SUBWAY PLANS
DISCUSSED FOR
RIO De JANEIRO
Growing Population Makes
Present Transportation
Inadequate

Rio De Janeiro, (UP)-Rio de
Janeiro Is seriously contemplating
the building OF subway in order
to help solve the problem Of heavy
traffic in its downtown district
points.
A project presented by Engineer
Raymundo Perreira de Silva. Is
being studied by the consulting
council Of the federal district. The
transporting service, which is
mainly supplied by lines owned
and directed by foreign interests,
are said to be inadequate to meet
the increasing demands created
The only solution in the opin-
ion of experts Is the building OF
a subway.
Explaining his ideas Raymundo
Perreira de Silva said his project
of construction Is based on mod
ern lines, that the state would
have ample guarantees. which.
apart from permitting them to
protect the public interest, will
have at any time the right to i'm
pose the carrying out of contracts
made by the concessiohers, or
having them revoked without
necessity Of legal arbitration.
According to de Silva's plans
the subway would be divided in a
main line zone, which would serve
the center Of the city and COM
mencing at the Esplanado do Cas-
te1lo, situated near the city's main
artery the Avenida Rio Branco
passing from there to the station
de So, on to the Praca de Ban
deira, and will be served by -four
tracks, two Of these being exactly
the same width as the lines used
by the Central Railway lines. the
other two having width Of one
meter.
