Warning Signs. Led by Goodrich and Goodyear, tiremakers this fall will introduce "the wear bar," a device adapted from aircraft tires, which have a red cord imbedded in the rubber to show when the tread is becoming worn.

So far, Du Pont has legally gagged a chemical engineer who knew its chloride process for making titanium dioxide paints when he left for American Potash & Chemical; a court order prohibits him from working on titanium dioxide processes...
