TRADE
CURTAILED BY
new EMBARGO
Will Shut Out East Indies
Product Used in Best
Grade Tires.

Imports Of raw rubber to the United
States will be curtailed greatly by an
order OF the War Trade Board to be
issued within a few days. The order
will also cut down the importation of
many other articles and will be known
as the second import embargo list.
1t is understood that while many in
dustries will be affected by the cutting
OF of raw materials the curtailment OF
the rubber imports will be the most
important action in the new order.
During the past five years imports
of rubber to this country have in
creased about 400 per cent. Inasm1ch
as the automobile industry has agreed
to a curtailment of 30 per cent OF their
products. the action OF the War Trade
Board in conserving ship tonnage by
cutting down rubber imports was not
unexpected. 1t is understood that the
order will refuse licenses to importers
of the better grades of rubber. most OF
which come from Java and Far East
ern ports. Rubber imports from South
America will be continued. but after
the reserve rubber stocks now In this
country are exhausted the American
put out tires Of material less durable
than have been produced in the past.
While no definite statement Of the
scope OF the new order is available, its
primary aim is to reduce the use of
shipping in the Pacific and in the trade
to South America Trade with some OF
the European neutral countries will
also be affected by the new regulation.

changes by which the war admins
tration can overcome the evils report

given rise to the belief that President
Wilson win enlist a production mana
ger of proven ability to take charge
of the aircraft program. Many off,
cials, however. incline to the belief
that Edward r. Stettinius will be de-
tailed for this work by the War De-

his time in the last two months TO a
