U'ith (lip declaration of war between (lie I'nitetl Stales anil (lie Axis powers, the. long- llireafened danger of our principle sources of rubber supply lias beeome an unplpasant reality. From Malaya and tbe Nedierlunds Mast Indies comes seventy-live per cent of (be world's rubber and those two countries are now under attack by our enemies. To- day Japanese (roops are iiltempfinj; to pene- trate southward tliroiiRh (be jungles of Malaya and td land by paraelinte, on (be Island of Sumatra in a desperate effort to occupy fbcse vital rubber producing areas mid thereby slow (be wheels of American industry.

Knbber is indisjiensable in modern war- fare. Airplanes and .scout cars, (auks mid (metis, barrage balloons and KH.S masks are only a few of the many essential war ma-
terials flint require rubber.
sumes a position of prime importance to ouf national welfare and to our ultimate victory, I cannot help thinking of the statement made, by my father more than 20 years ago when lie declared that "Americans should produce, (heir own rubber." To him the dependents of this country upon a single, concentrated area for any basic raw material waseco- nomically unsound and it was his premonition of difficulties in tho future that led to tho establishment of the Firestone Hubber Planta- tions in Liberia, which are now being worked to the very limit to produce every possible pound of rubber for our country.
HOW TO MAKE VOUK PKESKNT TIHES LAST LONGER
Naturally, it i.sgoing to take time to de- velop these additional sources of rubber. In (be meantime, it is (he patriotic duty of every loyul American to help conserve the present supply by milking the (ires (ba( are now on Ins ear last longer.
You can add as much as ;">()% to fhe life of your tires by observing such simple precau- tions as keeping them inflated to recom- mended pressure, driving slowly and avoiding quick starts and sudden slops.

ber to the United Stales will be resumed. I5ut in the meantime, steps are being taken to re- lieve the present situation.
FACTS ABOUT SYNTHETIC IUJBHRR
Tbe first of these is the expansion of facilities for the maniifuclure. of synthetic, rubber. There. :irc a number <if large plants now under cons!ruction, and tbe one for which we iire responsible will lit; ready for produc- tion in the first part of ,1!)J2. Nearly (en years ago, our organizalion began e.vpi-ri- menling with various types of synlbelie rub- ber, and in May l<)33, we produced Hie first synthetic rubber tires ever manufactured for I'ncle Sam's armed forces. As more svn- tbetie rubber became available, we. consistent- ly increased our production of .synthetic rub- ber tires. The most important elements need- ed for flic manufacture of synthetic rubber are Rufadiene and Styrene, both by-products of petroleum, which commodity tile United Stales is fortunate in having available within
its borders in unlimited quantities. RKA/IUAN UntRKK AVAILARLK
Another possible emergency source n* rubber is Ibe Valley of the Amazon river in fSniith America. From that area.'-lo.OOd tons were, shipped in 1912 and it has been estimated that perhaps as many as 311(1,l)(ll),(lf)0 wild rubber Irces exist in this region. These are nril being lapped al the present time bccansn the price of rubber is lo\\er (ban the price which would provide the inccnlhe for Ihe natives to bla/.e (be jungle (rails, tap the trees and bring tbe rubber to market. In addition, there is n possibility that some nih- ber can be obtained from (iiiayule shrubs,
into the original (read is added to (be life of Ihe tire and the quality of workmanship and material is such that we are able to ex- tend our life-time guarantee to every Fire- stone retread.
NEW VICTORY TIRE
Still another step which we took some
years ago and which will serve our country well today, was the. establishment of extensive facilities for reclaiming scrap rubber. Today the Firestone organization has the largest rub- ber reclaimingcapacity in the world and we have (be advantage of long-experience in de- veloping products made from this material. One. of these i.s a new type of tire, made from reclaimed rubber, which will giverea- sonable, satisfactory service when driven at moderate, speeds. We have, named this prod- uct "The Victory Tire,' anil it is now in pro- duelion in our factories. We also have in work- a new type of tractor lire made from reclaimed rubber fo help agriculture continue to play ils vitally important part in the war effort.
THE PATRIOTIC DUTY OF EVKKY CAR OWNER
In tbe laboralories of (lie Firestone far- lory our scientists and engineers are working ni^bt anil day lo find ways of using (o best advantage the present rubber supplv.
Equally important fo tbe successful con- servation of rubber is Ihe co-operation of American car owners, whose, patriotic duly it is lo tret the maximum amount of service out of their tires. *
Ever mindful nf our responsibilities to our country and In the car owners of America, (he Firestone organization is making full use,
