manufacturers over the scheme for
restriction of raw rubber produc-

Alanson B. Houghton, the Morning

"One country is not entitled to
complain if another country raises

remedy is to grow the commodity

Even at the risk of charging
our American friends too much, 1t
seems wise to maintain the present

The big growth. the bank states, is
especially interesting because very

are desiring markets for their manu-
