Hand work our specialty. () One of the most significant de velopments' in the rubber industry in recent .years is found in 1 the announcement today of the - or ganization of the American Anode. Inc.,. by .-three internationally nown corporations, the B. P. Goodrich Company. - the Eastman Kodak Company and the Anode Rubber Company, Ltd., of Great Britain. - This new organization has for its purpose the ' development of commercial production in the United States of rubber goods manufactured under the Klein and Eastmanaprocess patents. ; Processes covered by these pat ents will, in many cases, practical ly revolutionize the methods of coumpotinding, milting ; and -vulcanizing used today. -They are the result of the- work of Dr. -Paul Klein of Budapest and oC Drs. S. E. Shepherd and L. W. Eberlin of the Eastman Laboratory staff. The new corporation draws into one holding all of the develop ments and United States patents of all three Interests. The. principle of the processes controlled by this new corpora tion, officials say, is the electroly tic deposition of rubber on the anode which serves as the mold or form., methods of suspending compounded ingredients in - the latex have been perfected as well as means for maintaining a con stant concentration of the latex mixture, without which the com mercial development of the pro cess was impossible. It has long been known that the milling - process in rubber manu facture destroys to a certain ex tent the .original .physical proper ties of the tiny globules of rubber The mastication of the raw coagu lated rubber necessary to break it up and permit thorough com pounding, bruised the rubber par ticles and destroyed much of their natural adhesion and strength. It is pointed out that the new processes preserve the , original qualities of the rubber, which is compounded and molded without heat. Greater durability and strength are imparted to the rub ber articles produced by this pro cess, making impossible to im prove greatly the quality of the finished product and effect mater ial savings in its manufacture. The processes have been used in the factory- of the Ungarische Gummiwaaren - fabrics Actienge- sellwchaft,' .Budapest, under the direction, of Dr. Paul Klein, and thorough tests have been made in America in the laboratories - of both the Eastman ..Kodak Com pany and the B. F. Goodrich Com pany. The new corporation has for its directors Julius Klein, vice chair man of the Hungarian General Sachs, of Goldman Sachs Com pany. New York; W. D. C Staber, President of the Eastman K?dak Company; F. W. Lovejoy-ji Vice President -of the Eastman .Kodak Company, T5. G. Work President of the B.: F. Goodrich Company, and F. C Van Cleef. Secretary of the B. F. Goodrich Company. B. G. Work serves as Chairman of the Board. Julius Klein, Presi dent and Vice' Chairman, F. C. Van ' Cleef, Vice President- and Secretary, and F. . W. Love joy. treasurer. The corporation .will have offices at 170 Broadway, New York as well as at Akron, Ohio, where-commercial develop ment of the processes will be -un dertaken immediately in the Good rich Factories.
