Congress Must Decide
|fU. ). Will Continue
With Synthetic Rubber
By the Assoeioted Press


The Government is in the syn
thetic rubber business, and that puts
two questions up to Congress.
Will the Government get out of
it? If so, how?
1t has an industry on which 1t
spent s70O.000,0O0 during the war.
and which it is supporting with
prices pegged by executive orders.
| The industry could turn out almost
all the rubber this country needs.
Some people want it to: some don't.
Congress Must Act.
The tangled story of this war
time industrial miracle will be
unraveled this winter as Congress
decides what to do about the lem
porary law under which the indus
try now operates and which COM
pels manufacturers to use the rub
Der it produces. The law expires
March 81.
Here is where this prize war baby
came from:
The butadiene process, by which
almost all synthetic rubber is made,
was discovered in 1912 by a couple of
American chemists working for
tire company. From this, Germany
developed its "buna" rubber, which
| the KaiSer's armies used a quarter
of a century before Hitlers did.
American companies kept working
on synthetic, but the low prices of
natural rubber, which has skidded
below 3 cents pound several times,
discouraged research.
Germans Spurred U. S.
However, when American chemists
found out in the mid-193Os that
German chemists had developed
some synthetic rubber processes they
wouldn't let outsiders see, the
Americans hustled home and got
busy. In June, 1910, one company
put on the market tire made of
more than so per cent synthetic
rubber, and year later another
company was producing synthetic at
a rate of about 5000 tons a year.
But the United States, which
uses half the rubber produced in
the world, still rolled on natural
rubber-rubber from trees. There's
some history to that, too.
Natural rubber was first produced
from trees in the tropics of Central
America. About 1900 British traders
started rubber plantations in the
Far East. and when they began
producing in 1910 they drove the
Central American producers out
of the market.
Eastern Exports Checked.
BY the end of World War I, the
Far East plantations were, in fact, |
over producing. To check failing
prices, exports from Malaga and
Ceylon were restricted by the
British government from 1922 to
1928. This arrangement was re-
placed in 1884 by an agreement
among the British, Netherlands,
French and Siamese governments,
and this remained in effect until
the fall of Singapore in 1912.
When the japanese attacked
Pearl Harbor, the United States
Government and private companies
in this country had only about
$4,000 tons of natural rubber on
hand and another 100000. tons on
ships enroute mere. This was less
than a years supply at prewar con-
sumption rates, and far below the
100000 needed in 1912 for civilian /
and military production.
When Singapore fell, the United |
Nations were cut off from 80 per
cent of the worlds supply of ma
tural rubber.
Baruch Warned of Collapse.
In September, 1912, Bernard
Baruch reported to President Roose-

serve Co., which during 1910 and
1941 bought 100000 tons of natural
rubber from the four-nation COM
bine in the Far East. This company
now called the Office of Rubber Re-
serve, runs the Governments syn
thetic plants for the RFC.
Only One Firm Produced.
These were the uneasy days of 1941
which saw the synthetic rubber in
dustry born in this country. Re-
member, only one private company
was producing any synthetic at all
and that at a rate of only 5000
tons year.
BY the end of 1941, the Govern
ment had contracted for the build
ing of synthetic plants with a Ca
pacity of 10000 tons a year. In
January, 1912, the goal was jumped

situation to be so dangerous that
unless corrective measures are taken
Immediately, this country will face
both a military and civilian COL
lapse" He said all supplies would
be exhaused by the summer of 1943
if new stocks were not found.
Corrective measures were under
way.
The Government had taken the
first step in 1889, just before the
Nazis went into Poland. 1t traded
the British government 100000
bales of cotton for about 10000 tons
OF natural rubber, agreeing to keep
the rubber off the open market.
Then the Reconstruction Finance
Corp. was authorized to buy more
rubber. 1t created the Rubber Re-

to 100000 and more plants were au-
thorized. 1t jumped again In mid
1912, this time to 805,000 tons, and
finally hit 100000.
F'ifty-one plants were scattered
across the country; built with steel
scrapped from elevated railroads,
boilers from abandoned destroyers,
and refrigerating systems from Bos-
ton and New York department
stores. The men who sweated out
those anxious months like to say
now that it took the atomic bomb
to cheat their industry out of the
distinction of being known to his
tory as the miracle of the war.
