Chlorinated Stocks Frozen.

The Government yesterday froze
all stocks of chlorinated rubber in
this country, except those going
into certain military and essential
civilian uses, preparatory to requisi-
tioning by the War Production
Board.
The action by j. S. Knowlson,
w. P. B. director of industry op-
erationS, provides that chlorinated
rubber be used only for flame
proofing military fabrics such as
tents, for tracer bullets, for electri-
cal insulation, for adhering rubber
articles to metal, for painting ship
bottoms and as a protective cover
ing in arsenals and industrial plants
where resistance to chemical cor
rosion Is necessary.
Prohibited by the order were such
civilian uses as painting swimming
pools, concrete and masonry;
greaseproofing fabrics, papers and
printing inks, and the manufacture
of bottle caps and fast-drying
paints.

March Oil Demand
Expected 10 Top 1941
By 10 Per Cent
Increase in Gasoline
Supplies Indicated
By Institute Duto
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The total demand for motor fuel
in the United States during March
was forecast by the Bureau Of Mines
today at St, 1900, 900 barrels, q 10 per
cent increase over the actual de-
mand for March, 1941.
Statistics Of the American Pc
troleum Institute, the bureau said,
indicated that gasoline inventories
increased about 5,700,0o0 barrels
during January, which would bring
them to approximately $500 900
barrels as Of January 81, or more
than 9,0O0, 900 barrels over the gas
oline on hand year ago.
Stocks Of finished and unfinished
gasoline amounted to 94, ,098, 900 bar
rels on December 81.
Difficulties Faced.
However, the distribution indicates
"there will be difficulties in supply
ing the needs in the Atlantic Coast
and North Pacific Coast areas" the
bureau said, adding that the Indt-
ana Illinois district may be called
upon to supply greater proportion
to the East Coast and the Appa-
lachian districts than heretofore.
In q summary Of the general pc
troleum situation, the bureau said:
THE total demand for all oils In
December, 1941, showed a gain OF
almost II per cent over December
194o, and partial data available for
January, l94l, indicated an esti-
mated gain Of about IA per cent over
January, 1941. These figures indi-
cate a rate Of total demand con-
siderably higher than was anti
cipated.
"The sharp drop in the demand
for crude petroleum in January
was not due to decline In the
total demand for all oils but to a
reduction in refinery runs, with the
rise in crude stocks being Offset by
an unusually large seasonal reduc-
ton in refined stocks, particularly
Of fuel oils.
Demand Uncertain.
This situation may be attributed
to the disturbance Of regional
movements in the east coast and
West Coast districts, to uncertainty
as to the future trend of gasoline
demand due to tire rationing and
to a consequent readjustment in
refinery operations reflected in a
reduction of total runs with ab-
normal seasonable yields of gasoline
and low seasonal yields Of distillate
and residual fuel oils.
while the demand for all oils may
be reduced materially If rationine
becomes necessary on the east coast
the current rate of crude runs seems
lower than is warranted by the
trends of total demand and further
large decreases in national stock,
Of refined products seem undesirable
During 1912 increasing war anc
export requirements will at least
balance any curtailment In civilian
consumption of all oils"

Dow, Jones Says
~ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Dow, Jones
g. Co. said today In a copyrighted
story that the Chrysler Corp. was
negotiating q $100, ,000, 900 line Of
credit with banks and that the
transaction would be "one Of the
largest, If not the largest. in financial
history"
The bank loans, the Business News
Agency said, would provide q reser-
voir Of cash which the big automo-
bile company could call on at any
time.
Regarding purposes of the pro-
posed bank financing the story said:
"The step obviously Is dictated by
the possible need for large sums of
money In connection with the COM
pany's tremendous arms production.
1t Is understood that the credit lines
are being arranged with more than
ITS banks throughout the country,
including all Of the institutions with
which Chrysler normally does bust
ness
"It is estimated that somewhere
between one-third and one-haf Of
the credit line would be extended by
New York City banks"
Chrysler. the story pointed out,
disclosed in its recently published
annual report that 1t had used all
OF its surplus profits for 1941, some
$25 900 900 Of its cash resources and
apparently about 5000, 900 of de-
probation reserves to finance in
creased volume. resulting from war
work.

In reviewing operations of the

U. 5. Urged TO Release
Metal for Synthetic
Rubber Plants
Bv the Associated Press.


WICHITA. Kans.. Feb. 24.-War-
rem C. Platt of Cleveland, editor
OF the National Petroleum News,
said Yesterday the oil and rubber
industries would be able to supply
the Nation with 100000 tons Of syn
thetic rubber by the end of 1943
if the Government acts quickly in
releasing metal for building plants.
This meets only half OF the
Nations requirements" he told the
Kansas Oilmen's Association. I'VE
hope eventually to put synthetic
rubber on a competitive basis with
natural rubber"
Platt said service stations face
a decline in gallonage because Of
the restrictions on rubber and on
new automobiles.
But remember this decline is
from the biggest years in our his
tory" he added. TT means that
we will have to go back to the level
of 1898 or thereabouts."

Public Urged to Help.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a P.-The
Rubber Manufacturers Association
urged the American motoring pub
lie not to drive a mile that is un-
essential and, on the assumption
there will be no new tires until
after the war, budget the estimated
life of its tires this way:
Each family to analyze its cars
use for a typical month, itemizing
all regular and special trips taken
and the mileage consumed and then
compare this with the estimated
miles Of use remaining in the tires
which should mean a drastic reduc-
ton in use of the car during the
coming months.
The association issued the sugges-
ton in connection with the recent
statement by Donald M. Nelson,
chief of the War Production Board,
and Jesse H. Jones, Secretary of
Commerce, that there will be no
rubber to spare for civilian use.
If the estimated remaining life
in the family cars tires is about
10000 miles, the association said,
then their use would have to be
limited to about 1000 miles yearly,
which would mean only 166 miles
a month or about 40 miles a week
if the family wanted to keep the
car operating a few more years.
