Portugal, y. S.
In Engagement

Washington, Dec. 2-lNS- The
United States, 1t was learned au
thoritatively today has concluded
an important economic agreement
with Portugal.
The agreement. which has been
under negotiation for many months.
is expected to strengthen the bonds
of friendship between this coun-
try and Portugal.
Under the terms of the agree
ment, the United States will re-
ceive a substantially larger share
of Portuga's strategic raw mater
ials, especially wolfram. The lat
ter mineral is a source OF tung
stem and an essential element in
the manufacture of high grade
steel. Most of Portugars output
of this vitality important product
has been going to Germany.
In return for greater share of
Portuguese raw materials, the Unit
ed States will deliver TO Portugal
an increased quantity Of petroleum
products and fertilizer, This coun-
try also will increase its purchases
of Portuguese sardines, cork and
sisal.
Conclusion Of the new agreement
is considered distinct success
for the American negotiators, who
have been perseyering patiently for
months TO reach a satisfactory I'M
derstanding with Portugual.
Under the constant danger OF a
German invasion through Spain,
Portugal until recently has been
fearful OF making concessions to
the Allies.
The new agreement Is seen as
an indication that the neutral coun-
tries of Europe are beginning to
lose some OF their fear of Ger
many, and are willing 10 swing a
little more toward the United Ma
tions. Evidence OF this attitude
also has been noticeable in recent
trade discussions with Spain.
