PROBABLE SEIZURE

The full force of Henderson's
testimony was brought out when
Howard n. Hawkes., general sales
manager Of the United States
Rubber Company. predicted that
] 100000 passenger automobiles
would be idle by July l for lack
OF tires.
A year later. he said. 1000 .0OC
would be Off the roads and by the
end of 1913 the figure would b.
100000.
Henderson'S suggestion that the
government might have 10 con-
fiscate private tire stocks was not
regarded as an immediate posi-
bility. II was said that he in
tended only to prepare the country
for possible eventuality.
But there was no doubt that
owners OF pleasure automobiles
would be drastically affected. Only
the most essential users-police
and fire departments, public health
officials and doctors will be
granted IA priorities on tires and
defense workers who cannot walk
TO their factory probably will be
placed in 1-B.
