SUGAR CRISIS IN FRANCE
WORLDS CROPS ARE SHORT

London, Nov. l8.-The Official Ca
zette last night published all order in
council providing new food regula-
tons. which follow those which Wal
ter Runciman, president Of the Board
of Trade. announced in the House Of
Commons several days ago would
probably be put into effect.
An important provision is one en-
powering the Board OF Trade to re-
QUESTION stocks of food on such terms,
as the Board OF Trade may direct,
the amount of compensation payable
in default of an agreement as to price
to be determined by a single arbitra-
tor, or who must take into considera-
ton the cost of production and
reasonable profit, but without neces-
sarily considering the market price.
The provisions OF the regulations
give the Board of Trade very wide
powers, even authorizing the board
to delegate its powers with respect
to any particular article of commerce
to any other government department.
France Prints Sugar Cards.
Paris, Nov. lS-The issue of sugar
cards for the suburbs OF Paris is un-
der consideration by the authorities.
At Neuilly the municipality has even
taken the precaution to have guam
tity of cards printed. The scarcity of
sugar is due not so much to the lack
of stocks as to the difficulties OF dis
tribution. The delivery wagons and
horses of most wholesalers and re-
tailers have been requisitioned for the
army and there is also certain
amount of boarding by private per-
sons. The groeers association has,
however, obtained the loan OF FIVE.
large automobile lorries daily from
the army, which are doing much to
improve the situation.
Worlds Crops Are Short.
Rome, Nov. lS.--Rigid economy
throughout the world in the consump-
ton OF food, in view of the deficient
crops and the extraordinary require
ments of the European armies is urged
by the international lnstittte oil Agri-
culture, which has made TN. most ex-
tensive report it has issued since the
war began. The institute says all ma
tons are confronted with grave sit
uation.
1t is estimated that at least $780,
100000 bushels Of wheat will be con
sumed in the year ending July 81,
1917, and that at the end of this period
the worlds surplus supplies of wheat
will have decreased to 100000 bush
els. The report says it is only on
account Of the fact that last years
harvests were abundant, leaving a
balance OF 3s0,000,000 bushels, that
there is available sufficient wheat for
the year ending with next July.
The worlds surplus of five cereals
wheat, rye, barley, oats and corn
is placed at 533,0O0000 bushels. This
includes the unexportable Russian
stocks and also the stocks of Rou-
mania and Bulgaria. The surplus of
oats is placed at 166,000,000 bushels.
A scarcity OF fodder is expected
The total Russian stocks OF wheat
now stored which, if military condi-
tons permitted, would be available
for export at the next harvest, are cs-
timated at 300,000000 bushels.
