day that the army is using a spe-
Icial combat type tire that will
keep rolling even when virtually
shot TO pieces.
The Germans have nothing COM

said, and this presumably applies
10 the Japanese as well.
Somervell referred 10 the COM
bat tire in a letter to rubber di-
rector William NJ. letters made
public by a Senate agriculture sub
committee investigating the rela-
tive merits Of cotton and rayon IN

Capt. Richard a. Bolton of army
Ordnance told the subcommittee
that the purpose Of the tire, which
lis used on airplanes and various
other combat vehicles. is 10 bring
the vehicles safely back behind the
lines after its tires have been
pierced, and thus prevent loss of
vehicles through tire punCture.
Somervell explained that the
combat tires are extremely thick.
The sturdiness of the walls is such
that the tire docs not collapse
when shot through with machine
lgun bullets.
In fact, the vehicle can keep
travelling even when the tire IS

OF warfare failed. but a convection
spread that Germany would use
it sooner or later.
Informants said the Allied cross
check of gas reports extended as

For example, between January
and March frequent shipments OF
