THE MARKET FOR RUBBER SCRAP. 



NEW YORK. 

 PAURING tlie month of February the market for scrap rubber 

 *-^ has been extremely quiet. Stocks throughout the country 

 are large and constantly increasing. The reclaimers are far 

 from busy and are anxiously awaiting the resumption of a 

 normal demand for their product. 



The impending influx of crude rubber froin the Far East has 

 a depressing effect on the prices of scrap rubber, since there 

 seems to be no possibility of a marked advance in crude rubber 

 prices. Scrap shoes and tires must come down to a basis which 

 will permit competition with prices for new rubber. It is not 

 a pleasant prospect, but it looks as though dealers in scrap 

 rubber will find it expedient to devote their attention to other 

 waste materials during the dull period. 



Boots and Shoes. — Scrap rubber dealers who are working 

 on old orders are offering more for old shoes than any mill 

 will offer. The price is nominal at 8 cents. 



Inner Tubes. — Practically no demand, 



Mech.^nicals. — No inquiries at all. Prices unchanged. 



Tires. — Quotations for inixed remain at 5 cents with no sales 

 worth mentioning.
