GARY, Ind.. Aug. 19 (UP)—Gary civic leaders moved today to ascertain the cause of an order which indefinitely suspeided construction or. a $17,000,000 synthetic rubber plant in the western section of the city.

NEED 715,004) TONS OF Kl HKER FROM INDIANA INDIANAPOLIS. Aug. 19.—(UP) —The heat is on Indiana to obtain 715.000 tons of scrap rubber by Dec. 31 according to a civilian defense bulletin issued today by WPB Executive Secretary Dudley A. Smith urging county salvage chairmen to “revitalize" their scrap drives. Salvage workers were urged by Smith to i pen scrap depots wherever they have not already been opened and to enlist local respresentatives of oil, automobile, rubber and farm implement companies in their renewed efforts to meet the state’s quota. Pointing out that the shortage of iron and .steel is “critical,’’ Smith made a sp> cific point of getting decorative World War I cannon and other metal trophies “back into service." “It is time to make specific requests to Legion Posts, memorial associations, ounty commissioners and public officials who have in their possession < Id cannon halls, guns and shells." The Fall salvage campaign which will open soon contemplates the enrollment ol all school children and teachers In local salvage drives. Smith said.
