BETTER AUTOMOBILE TIRES ARE pR0NISED BY JUMPING RjIrDER

CHICAGO, April Gi. R-Jump- Ing rubber, made in flash so fast that it jumps, promises better automobile tires.
 The rubber is a new synthetic kind, and extremely tough. It was announced and demonstrated today to the American Chemical Society by Prof. Avery A. Morton of Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology
 Dr. Morton had a bottle of bu tadiene, an oil refinery gas used in making two main kinds of syn thetic rubber
 He added a few drops of a chemical to the bottle, stoppered it, then shook it. Suddenly a long snake-like piece of rubber formed, so violently that the stop per was blown out. The new rubber was born. The secret of it's formation lay in the few drops of chemical, which are a catalyst or chemical stimulant.
 One drawback to it's use, Dr Morton said, is that it is to tough that it is difficult to mill or mix with other ingredients used in making tire treads.

JUNEAU
 DISPUTE
 VERDICT
Continued from Page One,

NCoilOuiueu lIOIn rage One) such story has been printed. Neith- CT. MT. Chaney nor any other Com pany official has ever so informed me. did not talk to a representative of the Empire on April 20. and at no time have I made statement to anyone such as has been attri- buted to me.
 T am in Juneau solely at MT. Hawkins request to assist him. I have not been sent here by Com pany officials to take part in the liquidation of the Company, and [ do not care to create the impression that the Company is in proc ,ss of liquidation.
 There is no reason why the Com pany should adopt such a policy. If the present dispute is settled in such way that operations can be con- ducted at a profit the Company will operate hut if it is uneconomical then it might be to their advantage to close the mill. In any event this Company would never make such an arbitrary statement without knowing the outcome of the dispute"
 Other Disputes
 There was no change today in the dispute between AFL Carpen- ters' painters and Teamsters against the Juneau Contractors and Elm ployerS Association.
 A large number of the AFL Building Trades Council members have found other work not under the Association and a few have left town for other jobs. This statement also applies to some of the sawmill workers who have been sAlu out rom the Juneau Spruce Cooperation mill here by a longshoremt,S ..ion picket line.

Alaska To Get
 House Trailers for Temporary Houses

ANCHORAGE (P)-House trail CTS for emergency housing will be provided to Alaskan cities without cost, E. Glen Wilder, director of the Alaska Housing Authority, re- ported today. He said 488 deluxe units will be available.
 However, sites, utilities and pos sibly transportation will have to be furnished for the trailers, which are, at present, located in the Pa cific northwest. They are frozen" for Alaskan use.
 Commenting on the housing cri- sis which makes the use of the trailers necessary, Wilder said:
 Something must be done. We have a waiting list for housing 19 years long. Judging from the cur rent turnover, cities are going to lose people or have slums located on their outskirts"
 "These trailers must be strictly temporary rental quarters" Wilder said. If the cities desired they could limit the occupancy for five years or any period they felt would carry them through the housing crisis"
 The trailers originally cost the government $500 each. They are fully equipped with ranges, heat CTS, and refrigerators.
