Charles j. Butler, of Morgan <
Wright, Says Concession is of
Tremendous Importance

WASHINGTON, Jan 9-The Brit
ish ambargo on rubber, although still
under certain restrictions, was practi-
cally lifted today.
The partial lifting of the embargo.
announced In q statement by the
British embassy here, is regarded as
an important concession TO American
rubber manufacturers, although 1t is
thought that further concessions may
result from the shipping protest.
Guarantees, with bonds in cases OF
large shipments, will be demanded OF
American rubber exporters TO prevent
expectation TO Europe except through
the United Kingdom. Large ship
ments Of crude rubber must be bond
ed by American agents in London.
Other guarantees must be filed
through the British consul general at
New York.
Il am certainly delighted to hear
that Great Britain has lifted the EN-
barge on rubber" said Charles ]. But
ler, president of Morgan G. Wright
today. 1T Is certainly of tremendous
Importance 10 the automobile business
or Detroit, and came just In time.
Rubber Is now selling for from
40 to so cents pound" continued Mr..
Butler. "and If England had not lifted
her embargo II would surely have gone
to $3.50 to 81 a pound. That would
mean extremely high prices on auto
tires
Most Of the crude rubber used IA
the manufacture OF tires comes from
the English colonies. particularly the
Malay peninsula, according to Mr.. But
Ter.
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Rubber inter
ests were well satisfied today with the
concessions made by Great Britain.
whereby rubber Will again be made a

ment has agreed to permit exporta-
tions OF crude rubber to the United
States without interference so long
as a guarantee Is provided that none

been completed to simplify Shis being
