PRODUCED IN UNITED STATES AMPLE OUTPUT POSSIBLE. MR HARRIMAN’S ANNOUNCEMENT LONDON, February 3. Mr A. Harriman, United States Lease-Lend administrator, who-is visiting London, stated that some goods much needed by the United States were being obtained from Britain. To that extent the Lease-Lend programme was working in reverse, though the quantity of goods being sent by the United States to Britain was still very much the greater. Mr Harriman announced that the United States had perfected a rubber substitute made from a by-product of petroleum. He gave an assurance that the American output of this substitute would amply satisfy the needs of the united nations if supplies of crude rubber ran out.
