INTERESTING LETTERS FROM OUR READERS. 

 QUESTIONS OF INTEREST. 



To The Editor: 



DEAR SIR: — As a big holder of rubber growing companies' 

 shares, I follow with interest the rubber trade and have 

 posted to me each month your paper (The India Rubber 

 World) by the International News Agency. 



I should esteem it a great favor if you would kindly give 

 me a reply to this letter, and at the same time tell me how 

 I can repay you. 



It has recently been staled in ihe press that the stocks of 

 rubber in America exceed 50,000 tons. Is this correct, do 

 3'ou think? 



Further, the English papers estimate that America will take 

 (U. S. A. alone) 360,000 tons of rubber this year, roughly, 

 50 per cent more than last year. Do you consider this prob- 

 able? 



As a close follower of the market 1 am convinced that if 

 your demands exceed 240,000 tons the stocks will be reduced 

 so low that by December, 1920, rubber will reach at least 3.r. 6(f. 

 to 4j. a pound. 



Could you state also the number of motor cars registered in 

 the U. S. A. December 31. 1919, including, of course, motor 

 trucks and wagons? Also the number of cars and wagons 

 made during 1919 and the number estimated to be built during 

 1920. 



It would be interesting to know whether you consider that 

 a shortage of rubber is likely in the autumn of this year or 



Englishman. 



FINANCES REQUIRED FOR BALATA EXPLOITATIONS. 



To The Editor: 



DEAR SIR:— On my arrival here last month. I saw your 

 balata article in your June issue, having just returned 

 from the Rio Branco district via Manaos. Brazil, after ex- 

 ploring and starting a balata industry. This industry is now 

 well started under the name of Norzagaray & Boyd. 



I was the pioneer official (local secretary of the directorate 

 formed in Georgetown, British Guiana) from London sent 

 out by the Consolidated Rubber & Balata Estates, Limited, 

 and left after two years. The C. R. B. E., Limited, took over 

 the grants and balata businesses of Garnetts, Davsons, Dow- 

 ner, McKinnon, Dr. Bovallius and north territories from a 

 "Colonel" Link. 



I intend returning to Manaos to do explorations for fibers 

 chiefly, and incidentally balata, if I have capital at my disposal. 

 If there are any live manufacturers in your country who want 

 to carry out explorations and secure balata areas, please let 

 them communicate with me. Agreements must be made and 

 treated according to English laws. The areas just explored 

 are now being transferred , to an English combine. I know 

 where there are other reefs, etc. No use opening bank credits 

 in Manaos for the produce. If a large prospecting company 

 is formed, I will take charge of the expedition and the finan- 

 ciers can send their own representative to manage the cash, 

 accounts and correspondence. 



In 1918 for end of season, and owing to shortage of bleeders, 

 Norzagaray & Boyd shipped about 16 tons, and during 1919 

 season it will be between 35 and 40 tons. Bleeders had to be 

 imported and trained. The Peruvians turn out very capable 

 and reliable. 



William .\. Boyd.
