Both sales and earnings were at a new high. * ''War production continued to account for the major part of rour operations. Although we experienced cutbacks in some kinds of mili¬ tary output, such as ammunition, these were offset by increases' in others. These increases indicated the important part rubber and plastics are expected to take in the war against/ Japan." * ;/ Mr. Smith said the company had consumed 44% more synthetic rubber and 38% more synthetic plastics in the first half of 1945 than in the first half of the previous year. ;. ; 1,200,000 359 revenues.. 3Dther income "Gross 1943 $3,367,271 61,485 267,766 sales.
