Rubber Shortage
The war has created a rubber shortage that is
already affecting the automobile industry. The vital
necessity of preserving old tires is being urged by all
rubber concerns.
Since coming to Canton it has been my pleasure
to enjoy business in this industry and will continue
to be informed and carry contracts in accordance
with the government rubber program as your local
tire dealer.
I will be glad to assist anyone with advice or in-
formation regarding recapping or retreading your
old tires.
