the approval of the governments

expected on this score. Federal SCI

working in close cooperation with
their Latin American colleagues on
many problems
Rubber growing on an extensive
scale will give the Western Hemi-
sphere new industry.
Headed by Undersecretary Noble,
the Inter american Development
Commission is now seeking new in
dustries for Latin America. In its
plans to expand the production of
rubber in the Western Hemisphere
the Department of Agriculture is
expected to cooperate closely with
the commission
Rubber growing is the type OF
project which the commission has
in mind in its efforts to strengthen
the economic defenses of Latin
America, by fostering new indus
tries and increasing inter- American
trade and non competitive imports.
The commission is expected to meet
again shortly, either in New York
or here.

World on imports of rubber from

World on imports OF rubber from
Asia.
Following these quick surveys. the
department will pick out one or
more places in which to carry on
research and grow rubber expert
mentally. Rubber can be grown in
many areas in the vast region from
Mexico to Southern Brazil, accord
mig to Federal experts. Climatic
conditions, it is pointed out, are as
well adapted for the production of
rubber in this region as they are
in the Dutch East Indies or British
Malaga.
Due mainly to higher wage levels,
production costs may be greater.
Higher costs may be offset, however,
by increasing the yield per acre
and by more efficient production.
The departments program is a
long-range one. Even if successful,
it will not Immediately provide the
Western Hemisphere with large sup
plies of rubber. Congress has al
ready appropriated substantial sums
for acquiring stock piles of rubber
and other strategic materials needed
in national defense, and the r. F. c.,
under recently approved legislation,
is also taking steps to increase our
rubber stocks

confronted with the hazards and
pitfalls Of Aqueduct.
II was his first visit to .
race track and he yentured
there with complete conf

black panther In the eye from
10 PAGES? Had he not stood
by the compound while q
python fought II out with a
leopard: Had he not spared,
almost hand to hand, with the
vicious rhino.
He scorned our warnings of the
perils that awaited him.
He was laughing as he tossed
off a Singapore gin sling at the
clubhouse bar and played fishwife
across the board in the first race.
He didn't even watch the race that
brought him in s10.50 for his IS
investment.
Too tame" Buck said. Like
shooting monkeys. Give me some
thing a little tougher in the second

So he took Dicty Step in the
next one, q ~ to ! shot.
Stanley found Livingstone. but
he never could have found Dicty
Step at the finish OF the race.
Somewhere in the brush of the
backstretch he stopped as II
pierced by a poined dart. and Buck
gave low wall OF the Bongo-
Pango when that animal is caught
In a trap.
The Aqueduct safari from here
on out became a nightmare and
the dauntless Buck must have
wished he were comfortably beat
ing his way between upper Fam

terrific beating In the fifth
