u. S. TO Launch Gigantic
Rubber Project Very Soon

WASHINGTON. - A $40O, 000,-
600 government program for
production Of synthetic rubber -
designed to make the United
States independent of the Far
East for all military and many
civilian rubber needs - was an
nounced Monday.
Jesse Jones, federal loan adj
ministrator, disclosed the plan
following a conference in which
President Roosevelt approved it.
Under the plan, Jones said, en-
ough synthetic rubber will be
coming out of American factories
in 18 months ito supply all mill
tary and limited civilian needs. f"
Jones told a press conference
that he anticipated there would
be enough rubber at that time to
make automobile tires available
to the public.
The new rubber factories will
be designed to produce about
400, 000,00 tons of synthetic rub
Der per year and, Jones added,
IF it develops that more is need
ed, the capacity will be provid-
ed"
In addition to these factories,
the nation will have. the official
explained, about 10000 tons per
year of other synthetic rubber
from factories already operating
or under construction, plus some
natural rubber from South Amer
lea and Africa and from the rub
ber-bearing guayule shrub which
grows wild in Mexico and Texas
and has been cultivated to some
extent in California.
Jones. pointed out that in 1941,
the greatest rubber consumption
year in history, the nation used
about ESQ, 1000 tons of rubber with
out stinting civilian demand.
The new artificial rubber is to
be made primarily by the buta-
dience process, which uses crude
oil as the base. Jones said nearly
all the leading oil companies
would join in making this basic
ing rubber and chemical COM
panies would band together to
material, and nearly all the lead
process the material and make
the artificial rubber.
The bulk of the worlds rubber
comes from the Dutch East Indies
and other portions of the Far
East. The japanese attack has cut
off the United States from this
source of supply.
However, Jones said there was
enough natural rubber already
stored in the United States, or en-
route to this country-a supply
estimated at 100000 tons-plus
enough used rubber to fill the
most urgent neds until the new
synthetic rubber plans can get
into operation ''by the middle of
next year."

To Prevent Initiation
Put al y Billion
Research Bureau Places
War Bills Before July
At SIS, ,000, ,00O, 900
P the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE Ma
tional Bureau of Economic Research,
private agency, yesterday recon-
mended the levying of new Federal
taxes to raise at least $22 900 900 900
a sum triple present Treasury and
congressional proposals-"if infia-
ton is eventually to be avoided"
Declaring the brunt of such tax
program must fal, on middle income
groups earning between $l,750 and
$4,000 year, the bureaus report
said the Government would have to
find $4,000 100000 with which to
pay war bills before next July.
At least $40 900 900 900 of this to-
tal the report continued should be
raised by taxes. 1t fixed $35 50O0,-
600 900 as the limit that could be
safely borrowed without inviting a
puncturing of present established
price ceilings.
The report estimated that new
taxes under consideration and reg
ular Federal levies would not bring
in more than $25,o00, 900 900. In an
analysis of personal incomes, the re-
port estimated that $1O9 900 900 900
will be paid to consumers in wages,
salaries, interest and dividends dur
ing the fiscal year ending June 80,
1943.
$4,000 Group Heavily Taxed.
OF this total, $4,000 ,0O0, 900 will
be received by persons with incomes
OF more than $4,000 a year, and
the same amount by persons with
incomes of $l,750 year or less,
the report said.
Asserting that the balance of
$73 ,000, 900 900 will be received by
persons in the $1,750 to $4,000 In
come group, the report declared:
Those earning over $4,000 are
already so heavily taxed that even
If the Government confiscated all
income over $4,000 not now being
taxed, not enough could be raised
to pay the Nations war bills for
much more than a month.
"On the other hand, little can
be taken in taxation from the
$4,000, ,000, 900 of personal income
going to those earning $1.750 or less.
Accordingly. there is no escaping
the fact that 1t is from the large
group earning $4,000 900 900 =
that the major portion of new taxes
will have to be raised, If they are
raised"
The bureau said 1t doubted IL 4
sales tax would raise as much as
its advocates claim, and urged that
II such . tax is adopted 1t be
placed ct the retail level only.

Gated by the report included heavier
