Tire Shipments
AT 12-Year Peak

CLEVELAND, June 14.-Gains
in both original equipment and re.
placement sales are expected tc
raise the number of tires shipped
by the rubber industry in May &c
the highest level since 1929.
For the first four months, ship
ments were also at a 12-year peak
so the May estimate indicates that
more tires were sold by manufac-
turers in the flve-month period
than during any similar time since
1929.
At the minimum IT is likely that
May shipments amounted to g.
100000 tires and they may have
totaed as much as 6,S50,000 units
This would represent an increase
of l4i2 10 10 per cent over May
1910, when 5,755,448 tires were
sold by producers
The estimate for May would
bring shipments for the first five
months from 27,900000 to %, $780,
900 units, or 1872 to 1872 per cent
more than in the comparable 19iC
period. when the total was 1888.
