Plans for RFC finance of strategic materials for defense
The administration debates two schemes to secure tin rubber and other strategic materials. One would segregate about 500 million dollars of RFC funds to lend American importers, the other would loan a similar amount to foreign producers, mainly Britain and Holland. The first plan, seen as more likely, would shield importers from price drops, while both plans risk political trouble in Congress. Estimates show three and a half months of tin on hand, rubber stocks under two months, and broader storage priorities for antimony chromium manganese and other critical materials amid limited current-year funding.
