Germany Feared Sugar
Surplus, Now Lacks 1t

Berlin, Germany. Ray 25.-The lack
I OF sugar in Germany is becoming very
/ embarrassing. and this has come as a
great surprise to the German people.
who at the beginning Of the war felt
convinced that II there was any article
! Of food they had more than enough OF.
I il was sugar
To say that Germany. which for
merly exported huge quantities OF
sugar to England. was almost smoth-
cred in sugar during the first months
OF the war might perhaps be an eXaE-
geratiOn. but il is a fact that the I'M
mense quantities OF sugar gave rise 10
considerable anxiety when this country.
after the invasion OF France. came into
possession Of some Of the richest sugar
producing districts in Europe.
Everything was done therefore 70 cut
down the production of sugar. becau use
an over-production was sure TO result
in serious fall in the price Of this
commodity
The export OF sugar to neutral coun-
tries was increased as much as pos
sible and great quantities Of the sugar
bNets produced in northern France We're
used as food for cattle
It is evident there must have been
certain lack OF foresight on the part
OF the authorities, but other circum-
stances have helped TO bring about the
present crisis.
The principal reason is. or course.
Jhat the sugar beet producing areas in
Germany were cut down. partly be-
cause it proved impossible TO get the
necessary labor to handle the crop,
partly because it proved more profit
able to raise other crops, with high
grain and cattle prices
simultaneously the lack OF cattle
fodder caused a great many farmers 10
use sugar beets to feed their cattle
Now the export of sugar is entirely
forbidden, and, according to investi-
cations. the amount of sugar on hand
is only about % pounds per capita q
month until the neat crop is ready for
the market
