Threat to Rubber Supply Puts Ersatz Product in Il

shortage, national defense au-
thorities are taking steps to or
ganixe the production Of "ersatz"
rubber a. . backstop against the
curtailment of Americas supply
of the natural product-all Of
which must be imported.
An important move in this di-
rection was recently made when
the Reconstruction Finance Cor.
poration appropriated $4,000, 900
for the construction of four syn
thetic rubber factories, each with
a capacity Of $500 long tons an
nually.
Experimentation on synthetic
rubber has been going on in the
u. S. for over q decade. But il
was not until last year. when the
war seriously threatened Ameri-
can supply routes from the Far
East, that "ersatz" rubber was
put on the market on any large
scale.
Among the most important of
the synthetic rubber products
placed on the market last year
were ersatz automobile tires, for
modern warfare calls for thou
sands of motor vehicles. B. F.
Goodrich, in whose Akron labor
atories the "Ameripol' ersatz
tires were developed, reports
that years road test has shown
more than satisfactory results.
Other important defense uses
for ersatz rubber include the
manufacture of bullet-sealing
fuel tanks for combat aircraft,
bullet-sealing inner tubes for
tires, airplane de-icers and many
gasoline-resistant products. It is
also used in many other defense

Exploitation Of Women IS
Blasted By Ark. President
DR.. Watson In
Strong Address
At Kansas City
(Signal Corps Photo)

KANSAS CITY, Mo.-(SNS)-A
powerful and determined voice re-
sounded in the Second BAPTIST
Church here Sunday when Dr. .
B. Watson. president of Arkansas
State College pleaded the cause OF
the financially and socially under
privileged Negro girls who are
being victimized by unscrupulous
people.
Dr.. Watson spoke to a very I'M
pressive rally in behalf OF the Big
Sisters Home, a philanthropic in
stitution in Kansas City for the
education and uplift of underpr1yiI--
eyed young women.
Tracing the case of exploited wo-
manhood in historic perspective, the
DISTINGUISHED educator exposed the
i'll treatment to which women have
been subjected continually in the
past. He blasted the terrific ex-
ploitation which Negro women have
experienced in the past and are
experiencing today because OF their
financially and socially underprlvli-
edged position.
"That the race people themselves
are keeping ahead in this scheme OF
exploitation is most deplorable,
said DR.. Watson. In his opinion, the
subject is one of extreme impor
tance to us all of today. The time
has now come when men and wo-
men of vision and Christian Chari-
ty must act in order that through
out these United States, underprl-
viledged Negro girls will obtain
better chance for education, en-
ployment, and respectable living,
DR.. Watson Substantiated his plea
by referring to the moral and
spiritual foundations on which
christianity is built up. He pointed
to the attitude of Christ, to the
humble and lowly, how Jesus came
seeking and saving that which
was lost" and how He strongly de-
nounced the attitude of the Phra-
sees, Scribes and other vested in
terests which kept down and trod
upon the rumble and the lowly.

MORE FASTIDIOUS
One of the pleasant signs of the
time is that women are becoming
more and more fastidious in the
choice of scents. Ten years ago
there was a frenzy for perfumes
that were strong enough to work
in section gangs. You would pass

watt into a bus, and your nostrils
would be assailed and insulted.
That's not the case now.
