THE TORY OF RUBBER

Rubber; everybody is talking a.
bout rubber. 1t is needed for sua
cessful prosecution Of the war; it is
needed for many things in our in
dustrial economy. And we have
only ten percent Of the worlds sup
ply. But hereby hangs a tale.
The Dutch East Indies, now under
Japanese control, for many yeas
have been the chief source Of sup
ply Of rubber for the world. Bat
rubber was not indigenous to the
East Indies. Rubber plants were
first taken there from Brazil, South
America. The climate and the soil
were adapted to raising rubber :.ni
the industry soon flourished until
the whole world looked to these is
lands for this essential product.
Meanwhile, billions Of tons might
have been produced in Brazil. where
millions of rubber trees on millions
Of acres remain untouched.
Why we have neglected the cult
vation of this industry at our very
doors no one seems to say with clar-
ity. About all that one hears about
it is that the Brazilian jungles are
unconquerable. Wen, ladies and
gentlemen somebody had better be-
gin conquering them. NOW.
Maybe. the dark men south Of d
would have gained too much wealth
through the development of the rub
Der industry here. Perhaps, also.
the shipping industry might lot
have had a "cut" out IF it.
Whatever the reasons, our enc
mics have the present rubber sup
ply Of the world. while we sit and
wonder why we neglected to provide
against such a day. However, we
developed the industry in a section
of the world where it was quite easy
for Japan TO take it over. Which
reminds US, that great armies and
industrial systems cannot be beat
en- in their respective fields because
the fighters and workers may BE-
brown in one and the fighters and
workers in the other white.

THE ELDRIDGE-GRAHAM CASE

We hope the Eldridge Graham
case will terminate with the retire
ment Of John Graham from the Pc
lice Department. This case has
been full of danger and still is. The
compliments are contemplating an
appeal TO the courts from ''the sap
on the wrist" given Graham by the
City Council. It is true they found
him guilty, B U T.
Rumors have it that there was
sharp" disagreement in the Coun-
ell as to punishment TO be given
Graham and the deadlock was brok-
en- by the FOWL resolutions.
The vote Of the Council was uil-
animous. During the trial the atti-
tude Of various commissioners was
disclosed for all to see, and one may
well surmise how the vote stood.
Mayor Butler who presided during
the hearing was eminently fair in
his rulings. This is the general O.
pinion on the part Of all who heard
it.
Hundreds Of Negroes heard the
testimony in the case and they know
a great deal about it. Many min
listers and other leaders heard the
evidence. along with the masses.
And they are Unanimously opposed
to police brutality and they declare
they intend to see that it is stopp-
ed.

course to other remedies, which in

remark that, if this war lasts yet a
little while. millions of Americans
