ABLE TO OBTAIN RUBBER
SUPPlf FROM BRAZIL
Washington, Oct. 9. (UP)—
A Senate committee today
turned over to the War De-
partment the claim of an
Army major that the United
States might be able to pro-
cure as much as 8,000,000,000
pounds—1,600,000 tons—of
crude rubber annually from
Brazil alone if it would rene-
gotiate its present contracts
for obtaining that material in
Latin America.
The Claim was made by Ma-
jor Wendell Dove, of the
Army medical corps, at a clos-
ed session of the Senate Agri-
culture subcommittee, headed
by Sen. Guy M. Gillette, D.,
Iowa which is investigating
synthetic rubber production.
Dove( who returned to this
country last June after 15
years in various Latin Ameri-
can republics, told the group
that present contracts provide
for the purchase of Latin
American rubber at a price of
42 cents a pound, and require
the purchase of a "certain
number of pounds of brazil
nuts” for every ton of rubber.
He advocated renegotiation
of those agreements with pro-
visions for payment of 61 per
pound or more for the rubber,
and recommended "throwing
the brazil nuts away.”
“You will find a lot of co-
operation and rubber (in
Brazil) at one or more dollars
per pound," he said.
"A lot of money is being
spent there (the Amazon
Basin) to promote and to talk
people into getting-'inore rub-
ber out. If this mohey was put
in the market,’' less-; talking
and more rubber would result.
