Brazil the enormous shipments are likely

importation of coffee to the United States is
60, oOo,o goo bags, of which 330oo,OoO comes
from Brazil. It is easy to see, without ex-

even more serious. Thirteen-fifteenths of
the total importation of rubber comes from
enough here to last one month, SO that
should the revolution last longer than that
time the effect would be serious, indeed, to
those industries depending upon the rubber
supply. With sugar it is, of course, not so
bad, as we import only one-tenth of our
supply from Brazil. Still, the absence of
that amount would influence prices

no serious difficulties An act of congress
