The price was fixed at 20 i cents a pound for standard top grades, delivered free on board ocean-going steamers at Far Eastern ports. Under terms of the agreement the reconstruc tion finance corporation sub sidiary, the rubber develop ment corporation, will buy nil rubber in those areas allocated to the United States by the combined rubber committees. The agreement will cover the period September 2, 1945 V-J Day through June 30, 1946, in the case of the Dutch and the French, and the period Sep tember 2 thiough March 31, 1946, in the case of the United Kingdom from whose areas sub stantial quantities of rubber al ready have been shipped, the announcement said.
