Hoover outlines plan to curb rubber monopoly impact
In a broad policy outline, Herbert Hoover proposes a congressional investigation into the rubber cartel and related foreign monopolies, urges a single agency for American buyers, and calls for tire conservation to cut consumption 25 percent without reducing driving. He also notes efforts to boost rival rubber production and substitutes while monitoring price effects. President Coolidge backs Hoover, who vows to proceed.

Kansas City December 22. E P Stevenson of Cambridge Massachusetts argues before the AAAS that synthetic rubber could be worth 162 million dollars and could reduce a nine million annual loss from refinery processing. He notes the United States consumes 70 percent of world rubber and Germany produced synthetic rubber in the war. He explains polymerization from diorefines and the refinery waste and cost tied to these byproducts.
