some PROTESTS ARE
VOICED FROM CUBA
Planters Not All Satisfied and

To Diminish Cuban Crop

WASHINGTON, September 22-(As
sOciated Press)-Some objection is be
ing voiced by some Cuban sugar grow
ers AZ the proposal to regulate thu
price of cane sugar and to the proposed
price as fixed. Such protests TO the
proposal to limit the American pro-
ducers Of refined sugar TO seven and !
quarter cents a pound were received by
the fool control administration yester.
day. The protest says that it is feared
that if such action be taken and tho
proposed price be forced upon all OF
the Cuhn' growers il may have the cf
feet Of materially reducing the crOl
that will Ice grown in 1918.
II has been understood here that in
determining upon what is deemed =
fair prize for refined sugar and 70
raw sugar as we'll, the food control
administration has consulted with the
more important Cuban producers aud
has sought Is determine u price which
would he fair to them as well as to the

The objection that hns been made
here is not taken as a serious one and
the price determined upon is considered
one which should induce larger
rather than smaller Cuban crop by
reason of the Sterilization Of price it l.

The German losses are described as
very severe, the officers forcing their

brought. These swept the German
'harges and wiped out battalion after

the positions were abandoned.
Another Thousand Prisoners
During the day the British captured
another thousand prisoners, bringing
the bag for two days to more than three
thousand. g..
General Haig reports that whole Ger.

excellent craftsmanship of the British

shells upon every attempt of the Ger
mans to concentrate for a counter at

The British were on the defensive

that the troops had TO contend with in

SUBMARINE SINKING.

The Germans have Leen unable to continue the heavy rate of submarine sinkings reached early this spring, but during the last few weeks have baggcd number of fairly large li- ners, and also slightly increased their percentage. This has been due, it is stated, to the fact that additional SUD. marines have been added to the kais- CTS fleet.
 The creation of more submarines than the allies can sink is the chief danger of the underscas war. The German shipyards are said to be con . centrating upon the production of submarines, and as they are quite nu- merous, they naturally will be able to turn out an uncomfortable large number.
