THE MARKET FOR RUBBER SCRAP. 



NEW YORK. 



THE anticipations of the dealers, noted a month ago, that the 

 scrap rubber trade would soon develop signs of improvement, 

 have not been realized. Conditions are practically stagnant as 

 regards the demand for scrap by the reclaimers, who decline to 

 buy except for actual needs and are not paying the prices de- 

 manded except for shoes. The dullness of crude rubber appar- 

 ently has more influence on the scrap market than has the supply 

 of scrap. Some dealers are turning to the business of selecting 

 repairable tires for selling to tire rebuilding plants and pulling 

 tire fabric for the repair trade. 



Boots .^nd Shoes. The movement has been very slow. Prices 

 have held firm. 



Inner Tubes. The market has been practically inactive. 



Mechanicals. Very little demand. Prices nominal. 



Tires. The demand is very slight, at about 4 cents.
