Peter Edson's Letter From Washington on rubber tire crisis
Peter Edson reports a critical rubber tire and tube shortage worsened by manpower limits and weak facilities. Factory employment rose from prewar levels to 98,300 in January, with 1,500 ex-tire workers furloughed for 90 days and a campaign rewarding daily full-time work. Demand grows for 6,000 men and 2,000 women to staff new plants set by the War Production Board, but production waits on 1946 start dates and a carbon black shortage threatens schedules.
