THE MANSFIELD COMPANY WINS SUIT. 



In the early part of March a case was tried in Xew Yurk City 

 in which Rossbach & loos., dealers in crude rubber, brought 

 suit against the Mansfield Tire & Rubber Co.. of Mansfield, Ohio, 

 for $34,500, claimed for alleged breach of contract. 



A contract was made between the importers and the Mansfield 

 company in August, 1912, under which the company was to take 

 33 tons of crude rubber, to be delivered during the year 1913. 

 The importers alleged that when rubber, in the spring and sum- 

 mer of 1913, dropped in price below that mentioned in the con- 

 tract, the defendants refused to accept deliveries. The ^\r 

 fendants alleged that the contract was first broken by the im- 

 porters, who failed to deliver rubber under its terms prompt- 

 ly during the first part of the period covered, when the market 

 price was somewhat above that mentioned in the contract. The 

 jury found for the defendants.

The Century Rubber Works, of Chicago, recently held its

 President, Frank Netzel; secretary. Henry Venn; treasurer and 

 gi neral manager, Charles J. \ enn 

 This company is now making hoof pads, bar shoes, rubber

CRUDE OIL AND TIRES. 



It l- becoming customarj in most part- of the United States 

 to spread a coating oi '.rude oil over newly finished macadam 

 roads. Driving through a fresh coating of this oil is very hard 

 on tires unless care is taken t remove the oil with a little soap 

 and water at the end of the day. Crude oil is a bitter enemy of 

 rubber and a few m nut - passed in cleaning it from tir 

 time well spent.
