FOOD CONTROLLERS HANDLE
SUGAR PRICES HEREAFTER
Five Men, Two Representing
Allies, in Charge of All
Distribution

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-The United
States food administration tonight an
nounced that it has assumed control of
the price and distribution of sugar for
America and her allies.
Under the title OF international sugar
of our European allies. two Americans
and George NJ. Rolph. of the sugar divi-
sion of the food administration, will han
die the situation.
The European members are Sir Joseph
,White-Todd and John V. Drake. ST., and
the American members are Earl d.
Babst, president of the American Sugar
Refining company, and William A. ia
mison, of Arbuckle Bros
Neither of these men is Interested in
the production of Cuban sugar" said the
food administration statement, which
controls the price of all sugar in the
United States"
Cooperating with this control COM
mittee will be a committee of American
refiners, consisting of c. A. Spreckles.
James H. Post and c. NJ. Warner, of
New York; George II. Earle. Jr.. of Phil
adelphia, ana Dwight p Thomas. of Bos-
ton.
All domestic sugar producers of the
United States, the statement said, have
agreed to abide by the price decisions of
the commission and to cooperate with
II in every way.
No immediate reduction in the price of
sugar is to be expected. the food admin
istration said, and. owing to the in
creased cost of refining sugar, and of
bags, jute and other necessary materials
since the war began, the price may not
drop much. but will be kept at figure
as reasonable as can be expected under
war conditions.
The statement pointed out that unset
tied conditions and speculation have been
the curse of the sugar situation in the
past, and that proposed legislation
boosting import taxes on Cuban sugar as
a war measure resulted in ten and
twelve-cent sugar recently.
This condition will be made impossi-
BILE under the new plans of regulation
and control of distribution. Mr. Hoover
says.
The American members of the COM
mission will have control of all domes-
tic questions concerning sugar. The
price to iobbers and wholesalers will be
fixed at a reasonable margin Of profit to
these men. and the public is expected to
deal with the retalI price on the basis of
the information it gets concerning
wholesale and jobbers prices it gets
from the food administration"
No attempt will be made to control the
retail price Of sugar
That will be up to the consumer.
Distribution of the present beet sugar
crop will be under direction of a special
domestic distributing committee. COM

Mystery Still ShroudS
FranCo-BeIgium Front

NEW YORK, Sept. 80. by European
Cables from Foreign Capitals) AT a
late hour the ban on press dispatches
from the Franco-Belgian front apparent
~ had not been raised, and the world
was left to guess whether the interdic-
ton was intended to conceal some mill
tary movement OF prime Importance or
whether there was a relatively incense
quential reason for It,
The official statements afforded no
clue to the mystery. Field Marshal
Haig's report in the forenoon of Satur-
day. for instance, was of the routine
character that ordinarily excites no COM
ment. merely announcing reciprocal ar
tillery fire The Berlin statement was
similarly unilluminating.
From the French front there was an
absence of any interesting news, ex-
cept that violent artillery activity was
reported east of the Mouse in the YER
dun region.
The official statement from Rome
shows General Cadorna giving his in
fantry rein again. with the result that
an important gain was effected in the
Monte San Gabrielle region. northeast of
Gorilla. A surprise attack, carried out
with complete success, gave the Italians
a line rectified to their advantage be-
tween Sella di Dol and the northern
slopes of Monte San Gabrielle, PA pris-
oners and a few machine guns being
captured. The new line was solidly
maintained, despite several Austrian
counter attacks. The Italian air opera
tions were again Of Importance, the fly
ers once more sweeping over the Aus
trian naval base at Pola, where the ar
senal and submarine base were bombed
by a big squadron. Austrian military
establishments in the carso zone were
also successfully attacked from the air.
How heavy the fighting was on the
British front in Flanders and northern
France during September, despite the
absence of attacks on a large scale until
its closing days. is indicated by the fig
ures of British casualties reported dur
ing the month, showing a total of 104,-
5sS, Of which the killed comprised 49,
93S. these figures comparing with total
casualties of 59,S11 for August and 49,
$40 for September a year ago, the third
month of the Somme battle.
Friday nights German air raid on
England was an abortive affair, and cost
ly for the Germans. resulting in negligi-
BILE material damage and no casualties,
as far as reported. The airmen were un-
able TO reach London, the alert and ef-
fective work of the British anti-aircraft
guns and air forces setting up barrier
which was not pierced. while two Of the
German machines were shot down on the
coast.

President Regrets That IL is Impossi

Washington, Sept. There will
be no exemption OF farmers as a
class from the draft. President Will
son stated emphatically, in reply
ing to a letter addressed to hinl
BY Representative Jouetts House of
Kansas.
Il feel that class of exemption
would lead to many difficulties ard

genuine farmers left at their indis-
pensable labors," the president
states.
Mr.. Wilson points out that no
farmers will be called to camp until

season. He quotes from a letter Of
Secretary Of War Baker, stating
that arrangements are being made to
leave farmers until the last group
called, which will not be asked to re-
port until Oct. 3.
