u. s, Brazilian Aides
Hail New Rubber Pact
As Output Stimulus
BY HAROLD b. ROGERS.


United States and Brazilian off,
cials predict that the new supple
mentary rubber agreement will
stimulate production Of wild rub
Der in the Amazon Basin as vital
factor toward winning the war.
Douglas H. Allen, president of the
Rubber Development Corp, in max
ing public terms OF the previously
announced supplementary agree
ment, last night pledged the RDC
to cooperate actively during the
period of the agreement, with the
Government of Brazil to assure
maximum possible production.
DR.. Valentim Boucas, special ad-
wiser to President Vargas of Brazil
who has been here on special f.
nancial and economic mission
praised the agreement as satisfac-
tory to both countries. He charac-
terized 1t as elimination" Of the
policy agreed to by the signatories
in the basic agreement of March
1912.
Continuation of such close CO.
operation between the United States
and Latin American countries, DR.
Boucas predicted at a press lunch
con, not only could prevent a post
war economic collapse" but could
pave the way for an "era of pros
perityp
Here in connection with several
financial problems, DR.. Boucas con-
ferred with high officials in the
Capital, visited New York, Akron
Detroit, and war plant centers. He
was deeply impressed by the inten-
sive war effort. He left for the
Evening star., 1944-03-02

South last night, and planned te
return by air to Rio de Janeiro
and make his report to President
Vargas. He assured American In
vestors In Brazilian government Sc
curities that there were more than
enough funds now on deposit In
New York to meet all commitments
Looking to the postwar period
DR.. Boucas said Brazil wished the
United States would agree to buy
10 per cent of its future rubber
needs from Brazil, so his country
could lay more definite plans for
such production.
The supplementary agreement be-
tween Brazil and the United States
made some reciprocal changes in
the basic rubber agreement Of March
3, 1912, by which. Brazil had as
sumed responsibility for develop
ment Of maximum production OF
wild rubber in Brazil, and for pur-
chasing and making available to the
United States its exportable surplus.
This original agreement runs to
December 81, 1916. The United
States advanced the sum Of $5,00O,-
600 to increase such production.

listed. The agent in a few such
cases was listed as william J. Good

the organization.
Three Are Subpoenaed.
The House committee then adopt

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PACIFIC FLEET HEADQUAR-
TIERS, PEARL HARBOR, Oct. TO-
Startled war correspondents learned
a history lesson the emotional way
yesterday.
Serious faced Admiral Chester w.
Nimitz kept them tensed on their
chairs at the end of a press confer
ence by reading a 'communique
which described sensational Allied
Naval victories over Japanese fleet
units of Korea.
He told how powerful Allied
naval forces" had attacked part of
the japanese fleet at Fusan, Korea,
|inflicting heavy losses, and later de-
stroyed another sizeable Japanese
force.
At the end, he smiled and added:
This communique, incidentally, is
dated late June, 1892"
Correspondents Relax
The correspondents relaxed with
a sigh and laughed.
Admiral Nimitz was laying the
foundation for a statement in which
he pointed out the Japanese Navy
had been defeated at sea in past
wars. His presentation was so solemn
and the text so convincing that most
of the correspondents thought he
was referring to a current action.
The joke was carefully hidden until
he announced the date.
The admiral was referring to an
attack by Korean Chinese naval
units against japanese forces in
vading the Korean peninsula.

PACIFIC FLEET HEADQUAR-
TIERS, PEARL HAEBOR. Oct. TO-
American forces are moving as fast
as they can toward a landing on
the China coast, but tremendous
typhoons are a handicap to both
land and sea operations, Admiral
Chester w. Nimitz said in a press
conference yesterday.
Western Pacific wind storms
among the worst in the world at
this season, are delaying the efficient
replenishment Of ships at sea, he
said.
During recent naval operations
around the Palau Islands, 10 of
which American forces have in
vaded, storms were as severe as
those during the Normandy inva-
sion, the admiral declared.
The typhoon season, he said, lasts
from June to December and gives
the Japanese a defensive advantage.
Macarthur Promised Aid.
Regardless OF weather conditions
the fleet will be at the disposal of
Gen. Douglas Macarthur when he
decides to attack the Philippines
the admiral added.
Peleliu gave the United States an
airfield to support Gen. MacArthur's
invasion of the Philippines. and
1t has an anchorage SIS miles east
OF the islands.
The capture of the Marianas cut
japanese lines from the north and
Peleliu cuts them from the west, the
admiral explained.
China coast cities, such as Foo
chow, menaced by the japanese
have not been of much influence in
this war yet, but the China situa-
ton Is serious" Admiral Nimitz said
The admiral said it is imperative
to have land mass close. enough
to the Japanese empire to enable us
to employ the air forces which viii
