I just dropped by to give you the answer to that question you asked me about synthetic rubber yesterday m the barber shop. I looked it up and found out that the beverage distilling industry’s facilities for producing grain alcohol make it possible to include 200,000 tons of rubber from grain in the government’s 870,000 ton synthetic rubber program. “ I also verified the fact that no distiller is making whiskey today. They all stopped making whiskey last year and are working night and day, 7 days a week, producing war alcohol for the government... for smokeless powder, chemical warfare materials, medical supplies, as well as for synthetic rubber. It's a mighty good thing these distilleries were in existence ready to do this important job. ’ Conference of Alcoholic Beverage Industries. Inc
