"" " 111 " I (Ford, Firestone and Edison Join m f Effort to Reduce Price of Rubber N. E. A. FORD, FIRESTONE and EDISON... Afkon, Oi, April 27.—Three great American minds are about to engage Great Britain in a trade war in an es-! fort to save millions of dollars, yearly to those affected by the high prices of rubber. They arc Henry Ford, Harvey S. Firestone and Thomas A. Edison. Two yjtar.s ago Firestone, prominent tire •manufacturer, suggested 'for that America should produce its own rubber in retaliation for the British crude rubber restriction act, which curtailed produc tion and exportation, of raw products. This suggestion haw now become a warning, because 4 of the furthering of the restriction act by Great Britain. And to this end Ford. Firestone and Edison are bendlhg their efforts to pro land holdings in Florida * “Rubber restrictions this year will cost American car owners at least SIOO,- 000,000 and it is very likely will be near er $300,000,000." Firestone says. “Ev ery 10-reul advance in the cost of cruda rubber means an additional burden of about $75,000,000 loadel upon the American people. - “About $0 per cent o fthe world's sup The Land of the Sky in Bloom On the menu eards of the dining car of the PeniisylVah’ri Railroad s.vetem re cently there was priiiteii the following about the North Carolina “Land of the Sky:’’ The heat, thy glow of the early peach 1 'bloom might rfelf be accepted as a symbol] of tile wonderful climate and colorful | scenery of that'delightful mountain re-1 sort section of Western North Carolina' adjneeut to Asheville and popularly known as “The Laud of the Sky."
