The desirability Of having Uncle
Sam produce his own sugar has been
widely discussed as result OF the
proposal brought before Congress
recently for the admission of foreign
sugar free of duty. Advocates OF
this proposal asserted that 1t would
be better to abandon the domestic
sugar industry and to purchase the
entire supply abraod, claiming that
this would result in lowering OF the
retail price of the commodity and q
saving estimate at something like a
cent and half per pound, or sixty
to seventy centssa year for each per-
son. Opponents of the plan asserted
that even such saving could be af-
fected it was Of Ineligible Importance

Manchester. England, May 9.-Tom
Mann, the most militant Of England's
labor leaders, was found guilty in the
criminal court today Of inciting troops
to mutiny and was sentenced to six
months in jail.
Mann's offense was urging the regu.
lar troops, called to serve on duty in
the recent coal strike to refuse 70
shoot strikers and their sympathlzers.
Mann pointed to the troops in a speech
and said that ~ they shoot strikers
they win be shooting their own near

Mann argued his own defense, ad.
hitting bis guilt but attempting JUS
tification Citing conditions existing,
he argued that his words shouldn't be
construed as asking the soldiers to
disobey any law or commands.

therefore injunction was not the prop
