WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Ameri-
ca will be at the mercy Of the Brit
ish rubber monopoly for it's raw rub
Der at least twenty years more, hav-
ing failed utterly to break this COM
bine, according to statements of Gov
eminent rubber experts to the United
Pres today in the course of a sur
vey of the rubber situation. Britain,
though it's monopoly, can virtually
control prices, it was said.
Experiments to determine the prac-
ticability of growing Guayule rub
Der in California are now being con-
Quoted. If successful it will be years
before commercial plantations are
developed to care for domestic needs,
it was stated.
Harvest So Small
Hevea rubber is the grade COM
mercially used and the only Ameri-
can territory suitable for this pro-
duction is the PHILIPPINE Islands.
There are now about 500 acres of
rubber planted on the island but the
harvest is very small.
Experts pointed out that even If
Guayule rubber is found to be suited
for American growing it would be
years before sufficient capital was
invested in the enterprise to relieve
the present situation. Millions of
dollars capital will be needed, be-
fore America could succeed in the
rubber business.
Holdings Increase
Americans. however are increas.
ing their rubber holding in Malay
and the Dutch East Indies, Harvey
Firestone, rubber king, is expert
menting with rubber plantations in
Liberia, Africa.
The conservation campaign adopt
ed by the United States last De-
cember has aided in reducing crude
rubber prices materially. This weap-
on, together with surplus crops in
foreign countries, cut the price from
$1.21, in July 1925 to less than 40
cents a pound now.
