M What Would This ) ■If''. 'Country Do Without Rubber? " 'II 111 111 of the first essential commodities that Germany ran short of owing to the British Navy's " I - lull ( I blockade was Rubber. The "Deutschland," the first German submarine to cross the Atlantic, i ' ill! jI (I w endeavored to take back—but was captured—a valuable load of Rubber, for the enemy i r . , L__J country was absolutely starving for it. We cite this fact simply to illustrate what an imporr" 1 in' l IMI • 111 IS tant ~ in fact vital—factor Rubber has become in every nation's life. This statement will ; Jx r '- Ml • : PPI! come as a surprise to many, but it is true nevertheless. To many people Rubber is associated ? ill. 11l - mostly with Bicycle and Motor tyres, and a few other rubber articles in everyday use, but its ; I "''l t need in other spheres is little thought of. Travellers by rail seldom give credit to Rubber for i 3 (i i i t |, the part it plays in ensuring their safety—all the various brake systems now being dependent on air » lifliu ' hose connections (we supply tens of thousands to the respyctive Railway Departments in Australia). : ' W j Sfl Take another branch of transport—the Electric Tram services—here Rubber again is a necessity, insulated ' '■ m i ' cables, vulcanite, etc., being vital in the harnessing of electricity. All the cable, telegraph, telephone and Y 4hM| . wireless systems make demand on Rubber. The telephone transmitters and receivers are hard polished. ; | .\ u M rubber. In all the leading mines air hoses, steam hoses, valves, etc., are servants to efficiency, whilst in ;l ' .Ml I'. • many, giant conveyor belt systems are doing silent and economical work in transporting millions of tons '1 M 111 ■ of stone, ore, etc., at a figure no other system can approach for economy. ' ■ I 111 All power plants, ashore or afloat, pay tribute to Rubber in some form—packings, insertions, gaskets, ; { Ij etc., ensuring efficiency. In N.S.W. the wheat is to be handled by Dunlop Rubber Conveyor Belts in M •JP.i (||, conjunction with silos and terminal installations. In all classes of manufacturing the use of Rubber 'is . I':Pi 11 > on increase. Hats are shaped and moulded on it—printers use it in the shape of Rubber 5 1 I ii P 1 blankets—in fact, thousands of calif are made for Rubber and yet more Rubber. Our pleasures .1 . |[ I|II | and recreations pay tribute—for Tennis, Golf, Football, Cricket, and Lacrosse all rely on it. " " II i Wlfl ' Waterproofing is dependent on Rubber—what a sorry time our soldiers would have had !} , II without their proofed campsheets to sleep on 1 In our hospitals rubber surgical gloves, t . i. I 1 '] flVl draining tubing, etc., save lives and minimise pain and disease. Your wringer rollers, I 'li'hWW 1 your phonograph records, your preserving jar rings, your hot-water bottles, rubber '.j 1 11||[ Ij I p heels and soles all tend to make life more pleasant. In fact, Rubber'in the form of 1,1, jll if/ a baby's comforter starts you on the road of life, and thereafter it helps to make Imi W'rf - the world a more pleasant globe to reside on.
