Open Synthetic
Rubber Plant

To take care Of the constantly
spiraling need for oilproof syn
thetic rubber. Thiokol Corpora
ton and Dow Chemical Com
pany have opened for production
a new plant in Midland, Mich.
where the main work of the
latter company are located.
The new Thiokol plant is
understood to have a capacity
of more than 10000 pounds
per month, which together with
other plants now operating and
planned will turn out 5000, 900
pounds of synthetic rubber an
nually as compared with an an
nual output of 1000 pounds
during 1880, the first year in
which this pioneer synthetic
rubber was made.
Because of the defense pro-
gram and the growing COM
mercial application of Thiokol,
it was decided TO erect the new
plant adjacent to the Thiokol
plant operating in Midland since
1888. The new plant went into
full operation los days after
ground was broken and Is now
operating seven days a week, "a
hours a day.
Production capacity Of the
two units, it is reported. exceeds

cover, which appears to be a rich
type of car upholstery and which
possesses a number Of important
new advantages to motorists, has
been developed exclusively for
De Soto owners, according 10 an
announcement by L. G. Peed.
Made of a material called
VANITY Satinweave," the new
seat cover is not merely slipped
over the cars cushions. but
rather is actually shrunk on so
il fits like a glove" Peed ex-
planned. This is accomplished by
dampening the material before IL
is fitted over the cushions,
around curves and into receSSes,
such as rear seat arm rests.
The dampening, he said. in no
way harms the cars upholstery
Nor is the upholstery injured
when the cover is dry cleaned or
scrubbed with soap and water.
The new seat covers, said
Peed. are available in olive
green, dark blue and taupe.
