WASHINGTON
JUN 10 1943
My dear Mr. President:
I am pleased to enclose our June progress report to you on the subject of
Supplies For The U. S. S. R.
As requested, a copy of this report has been forwarded directly to Major
General J. H. Burns, Executive of The President's Soviet Protocol Committee.
Sincerely yours,
Petroleum Administrator for War.

PETROLEUM ADMINISTRATION FOR WAR
WASHINGTON
SUPPLIES FOR THE U.S.S.R.
REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT
PETROLEUM PRODUCTS
On May 18 the Chairman of the Soviet Government Purchasing Commission
addressed a letter to General Spalding to request that considerable quantities
of aviation gasoline and blending agents be furnished for June shipment.
After adjustment for certain tanker capacity discrepancies in the letter, the
request amounted to the equivalent of about 1,071,000 barrels of 100 octane
aviation gasoline. Allocations recommended by the Aviation Petroleum Products
Allocation Committee, together with certain supplies of drummed material which
can be made available from United States Army/Navy stocks would make it possible
to furnish about 979,000 barrels, but it is understood that shipping space is
laid out at this time for only about 947,000 barrels of 100 octane equivalent.
Of the six tankers which will be used for the transport of the bulk aviation
gasoline and blending agent on the June program, four will be United States
vessels which have been or will be turned over to the Russians under Lend-Lease
and will sail under Soviet registry. This brings to seven the total of United
States tankers turned over to the Russians. It is our understanding that the
entire Russian fleet of full sized ocean-going tankers now in service consists
of ten vessels, including the seven United States ships above mentioned.
A considerable amount of difficulty and delay was experienced in furnishing
the drummed blending agent desired for April and May shipment, partly because of
insufficient delivery notice from the Russians and partly as a result of the
immediate unavailability of the material and of suitable drums. The material is
ordinarily supplied from Gulf Coast manufacturing plants, and when shipment from
the West and East Coasts is necessary, as is practically always the case, trans-
fer to the ports must be made by rail. This is a difficult and time-consuming
matter under today's conditions. Unfortunately, many times in the past the
Russians have apparently found it impossible to give adequate shipping notice
for such parcels. For example, in the case of the April and May requirements
here mentioned, notice was not given until late in March.
While the Russian estimate of petroleum product requirements under the Third
Protocol includes as its principal items two tankers monthly of blending agent
and three tankers monthly of 100 octane aviation gasoline, it is noted that in
General Belyaev's letter of May 21 to General Spalding three tankers of blending
agent and two of 100 octane are requested for July, and the same for August.
Furthermore, a quantity of blending agent equivalent to more than half a tanker
is requested each month in drums. The furnishing of two additional United States
tankers is also requested for the July parcels.

The following tabulation summarizes the petroleum product shipments
that have been made to the U. S. S. R. during the period June 22, 1941 (the
date of the German invasion of Russia) to May 31, 1943:

It is expected that a downward adjustment of about 69,000 barrels will be
made in the aviation gasoline and blending agents figure to compensate for
material diverted last year to the United Kingdom while en route to Russia, as
a result of enemy action.
PETROLEUM REFINING PLANTS
We are informed that the higher authorities in the U. S. S. R. have
assigned the highest shipping priority to the refining plants and equipment
which are being furnished under the Second Protocol. The procurement and
delivery of materials on this program are substantially on schedule, and will
continue so provided the fabricators do not encounter unexpected difficulties
in obtaining the necessary primary materials. The WPB urgency allotted to the
program, Number 5 at the time the allotment was made, is in fact now Number 1,
inasmuch as urgencies 1 to 4 are already completed. These Russian refining
plants are therefore the most urgent projects in process in United States shops.
The Russians have expressed their satisfaction that everything that can be done
to expedite the fulfillment of the program is being done.
It is expected that a staff of American engineers will leave shortly for
Russia to undertake supervision of the installation of the refining equipment
as it arrives, and to start it in operation. Forty Russian operators and
technologists will be sent soon to this country to be trained in the handling
of this equipment, much of which is undoubtedly new to the Russian petroleum
industry. After a training period of about six months they should be able
initially to operate the plants under the supervision of the American engineers,
and later to direct the operations entirely without American assistance.

2.0. 11652, Sec. 3(E) and 5(D) of (B)
Considerable additional costs will be involved in the Second Protocol
plants over the original estimates, principally because of the use of better
materials than are called for under American war-time standards and because
of various changes requested by the Russians to meet their requirements and
specifications. Complete data on these additional costs are now in process
of compilation by the general contractors, E. B. Badger & Sons.
The pilot voltol plant at Baton Rouge is now being dismantled for shipment
to Russia, and the supplementary equipment necessary to adapt it to Russian
operating conditions is being obtained.
We have not yet been officially advised by the Russians as to the full
refining plant requirements under the Third Protocol. However, in recent
discussions with members of the Soviet Purchasing Commission staff we have
learned that the program will probably comprise the following:
1 - Toluene plant.
1 - Aviation gasoline plant as addition to Plant #4 of the Second
Protocol.
1 - Cumene plant, with various supplementary facilities.
2 - Plants for dehydrogenation of butanes to butenes.
1 - Aviation gasoline plant.
1 - Catalyst manufacturing plant.
1 - Aviation lubricating oil plant.
3. - Dewaxing unit for neutral oils.
1 - Propane de-asphalting and dewaxing plant.
The information so far given to us with regard to the foregoing is
insufficient to allow even preliminary work to be undertaken with a view to
supplying the equipment. This is particularly disappointing in view of the
fact that the Commission was requested last November to formulate its future
requirements.
OILFIELD EQUIPMENT
It is expected that delivery to port of all of the equipment for the Arctic
program will be accomplished in time for the special transportation which the
Russians have laid out for it. Punctual delivery of this material is particularly
important because of the very limited shipping season to the destinations on the
northern coast of Siberia. This equipment is being furnished for the petroleum
exploration and exploitation work in the Arctic area.
Delivery of other oilfield equipment is being constantly followed by this
office to the end that no avoidable delays will occur.
No formal estimates of requirements under the Third Protocol have yet been
furnished by the Russians. This is surprising, as we understand from conversations
with them that large quantities of equipment will be desired. It is understood
that the Office of Lend-Lease Administration is pursuing the subject with the
Soviet Purchasing Commission.
RECOMMENDATIONS
We have no further recommendations to make at this time.

THE SOVIET SUPPLY PROGRAM
I. Shipping
May clearances totalled 346,500 gross long tons, which
represent an increase of nearly 9,000 gross long tons over April
clearances. As in April, the May movement occurred without use
of the route to North Russian ports. For the first time clearances
from West Coast ports exceeded 200,000 gross long tons. Fifty
former United States vessels are now in the Pacific service, and
additional sailings are scheduled for June.
Foodstuffs accounted for approximately 39% of total
clearances to reach 134,400 gross long tons. This food tonnage
figure is the highest to date. Shipment of metals was also in-
creased to 81,500 gross long tons or 24% of total clearances.
Truck shipments again exceeded 10,000 units, as had been the case
in April. For the first time, a bulk shipment of 1,638 short tons
of alcohol was made in response to requests for industrial alcohol
to permit conservation within the U.S.S.R. of grain and potato
stocks normally used to produce alcohol for the synthetic rubber
and other military programs.
May shipping successes are tempered by an anticipated
June program. This program has been reduced on the East Coast to
permit reduction of Persian Gulf accumulations of stocks at rail
and road heads. On the West Coast the movement will be smaller
because of the tardy return of vessels from the Soviet Far East.
II. Airplanes
Deliveries of airplanes during May exceeded April de-
liveries by eight planes to reach a total of 463. Of primary impor-
tance is the fact that over 41% of these planes were flight delivered
via Alaska. An additional 4% were flight delivered over the South
Atlantic. Of the total of 463 planes shipped or flight delivered,
211 were for British account, 250 for U. S. account and 2 were
replacements for planes diverted to U. S. forces in the United King-
dom.
III. Third Protocol
Under authorization from the Protocol Committee, requisi-
tions were approved during May for certain items planned for offering
in the Third Protocol, even though the Protocol offering had not yet
SECRET
SECRET
- 2 -
been made to the Soviet Government. These requisitions will
assure continuation of deliveries in July of aluminum, copper
goods, alloy steels and other basic items on which the manu-
facturing cycle was too long to permit awaiting the termination
of Third Protocol negotiations if deliveries were to be assured
for the first months of the new Protocol period. Requisitions
for power equipment have also been approved to permit commencing
production in time to finish before the end of the new Protocol
period.
Efforts have been made to obtain funds from Congress
with which to meet anticipated Third Protocol commitments to be
financed by this Administration.
IV. Accumulated Stocks
Due to increased shipments and diversions to other
uses, accumulations of steel stocks were reduced by approximate-
ly 50,000 net tons during May. Some of the diverted stocks
consisted of oil country pipe to restore the flow in pipelines
destroyed by the Mississippi River flood. Other extensive
diversions are now being arranged, and production is being
regulated to maintain stocks Explain within reasonable limitations.

UNITED STATES SCHEDULE OF SUPPLIES AND SHIPMENTS
FOR THE THIRD SOVIET PROTOCOL
The United States Government undertakes to make available
for shipment during the protocol period to the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics a total of 4,500,000 short tons of stores,
of which approximately 2,700,000 short tons will be for ship-
ment in Soviet flag vessels and 1,800,000 short tons for
shipment in United States flag vessels. The foregoing avail-
ability will be reduced to the extent that offerings of other
parties to the protocol are carried in the shipping referred
to hereinafter.
The United States will supply the shipping tonnage which,
with the Soviet tonnage presently employed, will lift 225,000
short tons per month via the Pacific route, on the understanding
that the turn-around is to be of 75 days' duration and that the
United States will lend every assistance to the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics in order that this may be achieved, and on
the further understanding that should any untoward events close
the Pacific route to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics or
restrict its use, United States tonnage transferred to the
Soviet flag for employment on this route will be used on other
available routes to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
for lifting protocol supplies, for the shipment of which the
United States is responsible.
The United States will undertake to lift by either the
Northern route or the Persian Gulf route, whichever in the
light of changing conditions proves from time to time to be
more efficient a total of 150,000 short tons a month.
The foregoing commitments as to shipping will include
the movement of supplies selected from Canadian offerings
and from United Kingdom offerings of wool and lead originating
in Australia and New Zealand and such supplies originating in
North America as by agreement between the Governments of the
United States and United Kingdom are to continue to be carried
- 3 -
SECRET
UNCLASSIFIED
in United States vessels, as well as shipments from such sources
as may become necessary in meeting the commitments of the United
States. All shipping commitments are subject to the provisions
of Article II of this protocol.
The Government of the United States offers the following
schedule of supplies, aggregating some 7,080,000 short tons,
from which it will be necessary for the Soviet Government to
select as promptly as practicable, a program of particular
supplies for dispatch which does not exceed the shipping limi-
tations outlined above, 1.e., 4,500,000 short tons, exclusive
of fly-away airplanes, to which may be added 500,000 short tons
for stockpile and carryover, or a total of 5,000,000 short tons.
This program should include all cargo to be transported in the
shipping referred to above from the United States, or from other
sources, after July 1, 1943, including protocol and non-protocol
items on hand, on order or to be ordered. Protocol and non-
protocol material delivered but not exported as of June 30, 1943
will be available for selection within the limitations as to
tonnage.
It is appreciated that reasonable stockpiles of stores
must be maintained in the United States so that the Union of
Soviet Socialist Republics can, from month to month, select
cargo for shipment that is most needed to meet the everchanging
requirements of war. However, the United States reserves the
right to limit the size of such individual stockpiles, either
by control of production or diversion of product, or both,
when in its judgment such action is in the best interest of
the common cause. In taking such action, due consideration
will be given to the expressed needs of the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics.
When production is curtailed or material is diverted, the
arrearages in the various items involved will be given all
possible consideration in conformity with future realistic
shipping programs, Soviet desires, other urgent war require-
ments and reasonable production schedules.
The offerings made in the United States' schedule of
supplies are subject to specifications which shall be in
accord with current United States' conservation and pro-
duction practices and practicable and specific material
scheduling.
The United States stands ready, through appropriate
officials, to discuss with Soviet representatives in
Washington all detailed questions pertaining to the schedule
of stores and services and any reasonable adjustments that
may be desired.
A supplementary request has been submitted by the Union
of Soviet Socialist Republics. The offerings in this schedule
include responses to this request for certain of the items.
The remainder are under investigation, and information regard-
ing the possibility of supply will be furnished as soon as
practicable.
Above all, the United States desires again to assure
the Union of Soviet Socialist Republies that it has 8. full
understanding of the vital importance of the Soviet front
and the urgent necessities of moving supplies to it in the
highest possible volume and in the shortest space of time.

HON. JAMES F. BYRNES:
x5330
FOR YOUR INFORMATION.
F.D.R.
Letter to the President, 6-14-43, from the
x21
Secretary of the Treasury, attaching report of
Lend-Lease purchases made by the Treasury Det.
Procurement Division for the Soviet Govt., in-
dicating the availability of cargo for June, 1943.
The Secretary points out the increase in tonnage
at the end of June, which is attributable to
accumulation of equipment under the special
industry program.

WAR PRODUCTION BOARD
WASHINGTON, D. C.
June 16, 1943
IN REPLY REFER TO:
My dear Mr. President:
The accompanying tabulation shows the progress made
during May, and during the eleven months ending May 31, towards
fulfillment of Second Protocol materials and equipment production
programs for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
Outstanding developments brought out by the tabulation
are the continued large deliveries of industrial equipment, a
further sharp increase in cable deliveries, and the beginning of
the fulfillment of the power program.
As of May 31, a total of approximately two hundred and
six millions of dollars of industrial equipment, exclusive of
power generating equipment, has been made available for the U.S.S.R.
since the beginning of the Second Protocol period. This compares
with a Protocol requirement of one hundred and sixty two millions
of dollars for the same period. At the present time, monthly
deliveries of practically all types of equipment are several times
as large as during the first months of the Second Protocol. It is
because of this acceleration that the War Production Board has
felt itself in a position to recommend guaranteed Third Protocol
industrial equipment commitments considerably greater than Second
Protocol commitments.
Deliveries of cable in May exceeded 15,000 short tons.
These shipments, together with correspondingly large shipments dur-
ing the past two months, brought cable deliveries to within 59% of
total Second Protocol commitments. Especially noteworthy is the
present situation in regard to electric power cable (Item 74) and
miscellaneous copper cable and wire (Item 74A). Most of the orders
for items in these categories were not placed until late in 1942 or
early in 1943. Because of the enormous size of the cable program
and the difficult nature of many of the items included, it appeared
unlikely that more than a fraction of the program could be completed
during the few remaining months of the Second Protocol period.
Through energetic measures on the part of the Copper Division, the
Foreign Division, and Treasury Procurement, however, schedules were

worked out with manufacturers which have made possible completion
to date of fifty-three percent of the power cable commitment and
sixty-one percent of the copper cable and wire commitment. Further,
very large shipments are being made in June. As a result of this,
it is expected that more than eighty percent of both commitments
will be fulfilled by June 30th.
The Second Protocol power program, though formulated as
early as May, 1942, was not finally approved and put under requi-
sition until October and November, 1942. After this, several
months were required for engineering before production could be
begun. Ordinarily, eight to ten months more would have been
required for deliveries to begin on an appreciable scale. Because
of the urgency of the program, however, the Power Division, with
the assistance of Treasury Procurement, undertook to secure com-
pletion of the greater part of the program before June 30, 1943.
Extensive surveys were made of plant facilities and of available
stocks of critical components. In spite of innumerable problems
arising from peculiarities of specifications, urgent domestic
requirements, and shortages of materials, the program was quickly
placed on a solid basis. Where possible, units and components
intended for domestic consumption were diverted to the Russian
Program. Where diversions were not possible, numerous domestic
programs were drastically delayed or curtailed. In several
instances, the entire facilities of manufacturers were turned over
to the Russian Program. To break bottlenecks in the case of
certain critical items, numerous AAA ratings were secured and
several special directives issued. As a result of these measures,
substantial deliveries began to be made in late March of this year.
Since then, a marked acceleration has been taking place. As of the
end of May, the original program was about one-third complete. By
June 30, it is scheduled to be more than two-thirds complete.
Production of other materials and equipment items continues
to be generally satisfactory.
Respectfully yours,
Donald M. Nelson

Second Protocol production programs have been adjusted (a) to take account of the modification of steel requirements under the 2nd Protocol worked out by the Steel Division, V.P.B.,
and representatives of Government Purchasing Commission of the Soviet Union, and approved by the Requirements Committee, N.P.3., in Program Determination No. 230: (b) to take
account of the portion of ferrosilicon and ferrochrome commitments which are being supplied by the U.K., and (c) through translating some commitmente from short tone into the unite
of measure commonly used in connection with the items in question.
Made available data in the case of all items except steel, railway materials, "other chemicals", machine tools, electric furnaces, forging presses and hammers, various industrial
equipment, tires, tubes and other rubber products, electric power cable, miscellaneous copper cable and vire, tarpaulin, shock absorber cord, sheet fiber and metallic cloth and
screen include stocks which were on hand as of June 30, 1942, and which were available for shipment against 2nd Protocol commitments. Stocks of steel items which were on hand as of
June 30, were taken into account in the adjustment of steel requirements under 2nd Protocol commitments mentioned in Note 1 above.
The 2nd Protocol calls for deliveries in "Equal Monthly installments". Thus eleven-twelfths of each commitment should have been delivered by May 31, if Protocol schedules were to be
maintained.

SUMMARY OF LEND-LEASE PROGRESS
1. Lend-lease aid from the beginning of the program to
May 31, 1943 amounted to $11,893,000,000. One-half of
this amount of aid was rendered in the last 7 of the en-
tire 27 months.
2. Lend-lease exports of food (dollar value) during the
first four months of this year were 84% larger than in the
corresponding period of last year.
3. Construction of production facilities in the United
States, financed with lend-lease funds, has been leveling
off. Total expenditures for new construction to the end
of May were only 7%, or $37,000,000, larger than they had
been six months earlier.
4. Shipments to the U.S.S.R. in May amounted to 346,500
gross long tons, with shipments from West Coast ports ex-
ceeding 200,000 tons for the first time. May was the sec-
ond consecutive month in which no shipments were made to
North Russia.
5. Food exports to the U.S.S.R. amounted to 134,000 tons
in May, the largest for any month to date. There were 463
planes exported to the U.S.S.R., with 41% flight delivered
via Alaska.

Dear Mr. President:
During the month of May the record sum of 134,610.5 long tons of
X220
food and other agricultural commodities was sent to the USSR. Pre-
x4193
vious to this the heaviest monthly shipments were 112,850 tons in
June, 1942, 110,324 tons in March, 1943, and 109,330 tons in April,
x892
1943. The Russians have now received 1,127,489 tons of agricultural
X227
commodities under the lend-lease program.
Of the amount moved during May, 101,137.5 tons consisted of items
specified in the Protocol. Clearances of several food products
were in excess of quantities stipulated in that agreement. Liftings
of vegetable oil, including vegetable shortening and margarine,
totaled 24,713 tons, almost two and one-half times the Protocol
requirement. We also supplied 18,335 tons of canned meats, 14,334
tons of cured pork (mostly fat outs), 6,579 tons of lard products,
25,900 tons of flour, 9,707 tons of sugar, and 305 tons of soap
against requirements established in the Protocol.
Meat shipments included 281 tons of dehydrated meat, the largest
amount of this commodity which the Russians have received in any
single month. This is the equivalent of 1,265 tons of dressed meat,
or a saving of 3.5 pounds for every pound of the dehydrated product.
Among the non-Protocol items cleared during the month, the heaviest
shipments were 3,314 tons of dried whole eggs, 3,517 tons of semo-
lina, and 11,198 tons of dried beans.
The shipping schedule for June amounts to 80,758 long tons. In
addition, it is expected that most of the supplies for the Arctic
outposts, now being loaded on the West Coast, will be cleared during
June.
Respectfully,
Attachment

SECRET
STATUS OF THE SOVIET AID PROGRAM
DEVELOPMENTS DURING MAY, 1943
Cargo dispatched from United States ports to the
Soviet Union during May totalled 349,500 gross long
tons, 14,600 tons in excess of monthly Second Protocol
shipping plans. Total clearances during the first
eleven months of the Second Protocol year have. totalled
2,624,000 gross long tons, representing 71% of expect-
anoy.
May cargo included 39% foodstuffs, 24% metals,
13% trucks (10,330 units) and 24% industrial equipment
and other commodities.
During the month 468 United States manufactured
aircraft departed for the Soviet Union - 255 for
United States protocol account, 211 for United Kingdom
account and 2 replacements for planes diverted from
United Kingdom account a year ago. Of the total de-
livered, 209 were ferried over the Alaskan Route, 6 by
the South Atlantic Route and 253 were shipped by water
to the Persian Gulf.
Diversions of U.S.S.R. steel stocks accounted for
a decrease of 31,000 net short tons during the month.
Further diversions have been authorized and further
retardation of production is being contemplated pend-
ing Soviet selections from Third Protocol offerings.

PROGRESS OF INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS FOR THE U.S.S.R.
As of May 31, 1943
State Dept. Letter,111-72 FEB

Aluminum Rolling Will
By J. Schauble Date
This $6,000,000 project is for production of aluminum sheet for the U.S.S.R. aircraft industry.
The mechanical equipment bas been completely shipped from the manufacturer. 85% of the electrical
equipment has been shipped to port. The remainder is expected to be shipped by June 10, 1943.
Petroleum Refinery Program
This project is being developed to produce aviation gas, motor gas and lubricating oils to replace
Soviet production destroyed or isolated by the German Army. As procurement has proceeded, it has become
evident that overall cost will be somewhat less than the $60,000,000 originally estimated.
Process engineering is 99% complete; detail engineering and drafting is 64% complete; orders have
been placed for 99% of the equipment involved; 32% of the equipment has been shipped from factory. The
whole refinery program including power equipment is scheduled for completion by the end of this summer,
1943, although certain specialties such as valves, instruments and tank cars will not be delivered until
late fall.
Tire Production Program
This $6,000,000 project is to permit the Soviet Government to produce a minimum of 1,000,000 mili-
tary tires per year from their own supplies of synthetic rubber and natural rubber obtained from shrubs.
To utilise idle American equipment, the tire plant of the Ford Motor Company has been purchased; 100% of
this plant has been dismantled and shipped to port. 55% of the new equipment being furnished has been
shipped to port; the remaining 45% will be made available from production by September 1943. Sufficient
new equipment, however, will be delivered by July to allow for production of 500,000 tires per year.
Shipments of power equipment commenced in May and will be completed in July.
Power Plants
This project, calling for a total of 250,000 kw steam generating capacity and 217,000 H.P. of diesel
generating equipment and industrial steam boilers, is planned to provide power for munitions plants. The
engineering design work has been completed. Equipment from stand-by United States plants is being used to
reduce the requirements for new production.
Engineering and purchase of equipment for these plants is completed. Several of these plants have
been completely shipped to the port while others have been partially shipped. A considerable portion of
all remaining equipment will be made available from factories during the months of June and July. Diffi-
culties have been encountered in obtaining such essential equipment as piping and valves.
Hydro-Electric Power Program
A request has been filed for hydro-electric equipment for 16 projects, including hydraulic turbines,
electric generators, & power house and switchyard auxiliary equipment. The projects contemplate develop-
ing approximately 268,000 kw of electric power in the Ural Mountain region for rapidly expanding munition
plants.
Performance specifications are being reviewed by the Mar Production Board. The consulting engineers
have been authorised to prepare excavation drawings on each of the projects. No commitment has yet been
made to procure the necessary equipment.
Automatic Block Signal System
This $13,000,000 project is to permit automatic signal operation of a portion of the U.S.S.R. rail-
road system. The equipment when installed will permit greater carrying capacity on existing rail facili-
ties without increase of rolling stock. The system will consist of signal and signal operating equipment
for 455 in single track alternating current supply, 1162 la single track storage battery supply, 800 in
single track primary battery supply and 583 los double track storage battery supply. Contracts have been
awarded and layout designs completed. Most of the engineering problems have been settled and 75% of the
drawings approved. Fabrication has commenced. The Soviet representatives have requested 48 power stations
for this system. The request is under engineering study.
