Yugoslavia to Ship Metals to United States in 1951
Belgrade reports Communist Yugoslavia will send the bulk of its strategic metal output to the United States through Philip Brothers of New York. The plan covers roughly 906,900 to 20 million dollars in lead, copper, antimony, chrome and other nonferrous metals for 1951 amid U.S. stockpiling spurred by rearmament and a booming economy. The move follows Tito’s rift with the Soviet bloc and is linked to talks on additional American credits for Yugoslavia to avert potential winter shortages and famine.
