XIX.—THE INDUSTRY IN THE UNITED STATES. 36. Imports of crude rubber .into the United States in 1927 Position were 341,000 tons, or 3 per cent. more than in 1926. Owing to of ey the continued use of reclaimed rubber, absorption of crude rubber ’ by manufacturers in the United States increased but slightly, from 365,000 tons in 1926 to about 375,000 tons in 1927. In the last 1alf of 1927 the demand for motor tyres was greatly reduced by the decline in motor vehicle production, but in 1928 absorption greatly increased again to 440,000 tons, and again, in 1929, to £70,000 tons. Tyres and tubes for motor vehicles form the greater portion of its manufactures. The percentage of the total absorption of rubber used for tyres rose from 70 per cent. in 1917 to 85.6 per cent. in 1928. In 1926 and 1927 the absorp- tion of rubber in the United States was less than in 1925, due largely to the increased use of reclaimed rubber since 1925, and to the fact that the Ford Company was out of production during part of this period. The abnormal production in 1925 was due to the change over from high pressure to low pressure tyres. The increased imports of crude rubber in 1926 and 1927 were used chiefly to make up depleted stocks of raw material and to supply the growing re-export trade in rubber to Canada. Russia and other rountries. * 87. The rubber manufacturing industry in the United States is larger than that of all other countries combined, absorbing some 50 per cent. of the estimated world production of rubber. This great industry is due to the development of the motor industry, which utilises more than 85 per cent. of the crude rubber imported.
