synthetic rubber production to
around 10000 tons annually but
said such an output was several
years away.
Some sources said synthetic plants
would be making about 10000 tons
annually by the end of l943 and
would pass 10000 tons late in 1912.
Others expected 30,000-ton rate by
the end of this year but they were

rubber companies would construct
plants each capable Of housing
equipment for 10000 tons annually,
starting at $500 tons year.
