1,36:000 SORE PAIRS
OF CHILDREN'S SHOES LAST YEAR
In the last twelve months Canadian manu-
facturers made for Canadian children
about 25% more shoes than in 1939—a
fine job—done by the organization and
direction of production by this Board's
Footwear Administration and the co-
operation of manufacturers. And, this was
accomplished while they were making
more essential type shoes for war work-
ers, who wear out their shoes faster
than they do in their normal employment.

THE DISAPPEARING ACT
OF RUBBER -SOLE SHOES
In normal times most young Canadians got at
) least one pair of rubber soled, canvas -top shoes
I a year. But natural rubber supplies fell into
enemy hands, and the manufacture of rubber
footwear was drastically curtailed. We're now
using reclaimed and synthetic rubber in these
shoes—there have been mote of them this year
and there will be more next year. Leather -soled
shoes have bad to be used in place of this rubber -
soled footwear but shoes made of leather need
more care than running Shoes. When they don't
get it they wear out more quickly; when they get
wet they roust be dried slowly, away from direct
heat—and they should be greased also. IL's not
always a case of poor quality; it's poor care.
LEATHER GOES TO WAR
You've got to have good strong
leather for children's shoes, but
the soldiers are taking most of
ours for their boots. For these
leathers, a substantial portion of
the hides came from South Amer-
ica.and other countries. War cut
down these imports and there
have been difficulties in getting
enough of these and our own
hides tanned into leather due to
shortage of workers. The pro-
duction of high grade leather
shoes has, however, been main-
tained at the highest level con-
sistent with the labour and mate-
rials available. While shoe fac-
tories have been working over-
time, factory capacity for civi-
lian shoes cannot be expanded in
wartime and it's not possible to 1,
change plants from the manu-
facture of one type of shoe to
another,—for instance, from wo-
men's to children's. The pro-
cesses, the machines and the
lasts are different.
TURNING HIDES INTO SHOES
There are very large war uses of leather
—for instance, in footwear. A soldier re-
quires four pairs of shoes in the first year
of his service and about three pairs per
year thereafter. But, what is more im-
portant, he needs to' have his shoes
re -soled four or five times a year. His
shoes are of the highest quality
leathers obtainable, leaving the other
grades of leather for civilian use. Airmen
need leather for jackets and mitts. War
factories need leather for belting and
farmers need leather for harness. Leather
—the best leathers. --has gone to war.
