Industry leaders base this pre- diction on the fact that in 1950 and 1951 the auto industry sold a record number of new cars. And just about next year you'll have to start replacing the original tires on them, Times ought to be good through most of next year anyway, with nothing but minor setbacks to be expected, according to James J. Newman, vice president of B. F. Goodrich Company, “Even during slumps, the tire replacement volume holds pretty | steady,” says E. J. Thomas, pres- ident of Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company. “‘People do without oth- er things before they stop driving their cars. So tire replacements depend largely upon the number of cars built in previous years.” People bought up.a lot of tires | they didn’t need in 1950 when the Korean War scared them, so re- and | placements fell to 34 million in . 1951, Thomas says. This year the | replacement total should be 45 mil- lion. And next year 49 million tires | will be replaced, an increase of 8.8 per cent, Thomas believes. Newman extends this even fur- ther and predicts that by 1960 re- placements will top 60 million tires a year. That means that this | year the industry is using 1 mil- lion tons of rubber, but by 1960 will use 1,600,000 tons. Both natural ahd synthetic rub- ber, should be in ample supply. Thomas also is betting that the auto industry will turn out well over five million new cars next year. To outfit these and supply spares, he figures the tire industry .; will turn out another 28 mnillico | casings, He thinks exports should | run around 600,000 tires for a total | CENTRAL PHARMACY, Corner White & Truman Ave. Mail Orders Filled the shrines of Mohammed.
