By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. LONDON, August 6.—The British themselves now are protesting against the provisions of the Stevenson rubber act, which was to save their rubber industry, but which they now find is ruining it. The operations of this act, of vital interest to some 18,000,000 American automobile owners, caused the American Government's informal protest last week, on the ground that | the world rubber market was totter. ing, as a result of British artificial re- striction. Now the British themselves are be- ing serfously hit, as crude rubber prices continue high, alf because of the application of the Stevenson act In the Malayar and Ceylon rubber flelds, where almost 75 per cent of the world's rubber is produced, the act has worked far too well. This act, which was passed in 1922 in the interest of British planters and manufacturers, established an embargo restricting ex- ports of crude Malay rubber, accord- ing to certain percentages. The idea was to prevent a glut of the market, thus keeping prices up and encourag- | ing the industry. Act Is Boomerang. The act did this, but unfortunately kept right on going and has become a boomerang, seriously embarrassing to | British manufacturers. It is another illustration of the fact that no at-| tempt to corner the world market in any product ever permanently suc- ceeds. Fourteen British rubber concerns, members of the India Rubber Manu- facturers' Association, Ltd., issued a manifesto today decrying the rise in prices and the scarcity of rubber, caused by an act which two years ago they urged. They hope to ask the government to modify the Stevenson act 8o as to permit a 20 per cent in- crease in rubber exports from August 1 instead of the 10 per cent increase permitted by the present law. The fourteen concerns taking the initia tive desire to remain anonymous, ex cept through their central organiza- tion. It may be said, however, that THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
