HOOVER ASKS PEOPLE TO CUT
DOWN USE OF SUGAR A THIRD
Appeal Is Result of Request for Ex-
ports by French, Who Face Pros
pect of Two Months Famine.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-Food
Administrator Hoover has appealed
to the people to reduce their con-
sumption of sweets to leave share
for their French allies, who are fac
ing the prospect of two months en-
tirely without sugar.
1--WE have received request from
the French government" Hoover said,
"that we allow them to export from
the United States 100000 tons of su-
gar during the next month and prob
ably more at later period. The sit
uation is that we have just sufficient
sugar to maintain our normal con-
sumption until the 1st of January,
then the new West India crop be-
comes available. Our consumption is
at the rate of 80 pounds per person
per year4a little under four ounces
per day per person. The French peo-
pie are on a ration of sugar equal to
only 81 pounds per annum per person,
or at the rate of less than one single
ounce per day per person.
Sugar even to a greater amount
than the French ration is human
necessity. If our people will reduce
by one-third their purchases and con-
sumption of candy and of sugar for
other uses than preserving fruit,
which we do not wish to interfere
with. we can save the French situa-
ton"
