PHILIPPINE SUGAR
FINDS NO MARKET

The following article appears in
late issue OF the Manila Bulletin:
According to a prominent sugar ex-
porter. there are about 200 900 pIcuIs
OF sugar stored in the warehouses OF
Iloilo. a goodly portion of which has
been mortgaged to the banks as Sc
curity for advance loans And the
same exporter was OF the opinion that
the owners would have a hard time
getting rid OF it.
The phenomenal raise in sugar last
year. said the exporter referred TO,
-was not a normal raise due to in
creased consumption. II was due TO
the drouth in Germany and the con-
sequent shortage in the German beet
sugar crop. The German beet sugar
is cheaper than cane sugar and almost
fills the demand of Europe. but last
year. on account of the drouth in Ger
many. Europe imported vast amount
OF cane sugar, which accounts for the
sudden demand for Philippine sugar
at that time.
Such prices as prevailed last year
will perhaps never again be reached.
The fact is that the American import
ers won't look at Philippine sugar.
whose quality is only So degrees and
does not reach the importer till about
two or three months after the order is
placed, as long as they can get s6-de-
gree Cuban sugar delivered month
after placing the order The German
beet sugar is also about 96-degree
quality.
The local producers often blame the
exporters here for failing to find a
market for their sugar, but such blame
is unjustified They must blame them
selves When the Philippines produce
96-degree sugar, there will be a de-
mand for the product, and this quality
can be produced only by up-to-date
mills. At present sugar is being
shipped from Iloilo in small lots on
consignment. Shipping on consign-
ment is their only hope of getting rid
of the tremendous stock at Rresent
stored away in noifo.r

was in the shape of a deposit of $780,

in the money market which has made
loans difficult since it became known
that all money tied up in Negros sugar
would remain inaccessible until break

There is no apparent change in the
condition of the sugar market, prices
quoted remaining lower than the fig
