Rubber Supply Steady While Leather Gets Scarcer This Explains Low Price of Rubber Foo't- ■yypar in Spite of Increase m Cost of Chemicals, Fabrics and Labor. Th-e war is using up enormous quantities, both of leather and rubber. At the same time it is seriously restricting the output of the former, much of which came from Russia--while rubber production keeps pace with the demand. From the great plantations now reaching maturity in Britain's tropical Dominions will come this year 150,000 tons of raw rubber--75% of the world's production, and an increase of over 40,000 tons over last year. Thus, thanks to the British Government's foresight in encouraging these plantations, the Allied armies have been abundantly supplied with all the rubber ~ products they need--Germany and her allies have been cut off--and the price to the world at large has actually been reduced. Meanwhile leather has been getting scarcer and more expensive--80% higher than m 1914 r-and the end is not yet. At normal prices a pair of good shoes cost about four times as much as a pair of rubbers--and would last twice as long l £ rubbers or overshoes were worn to protect them. Or a pair of heavy rubbers for the farm cost much less than heavy shoes, and would stand much more wear in bad weather So even before the war rubbers were a mighty good investment, to say nothing of their prevention of wet feet, colds and doctors' bills.
