GEORGE N. ROLPH
MAY Be HOOvER'S
SUGAR CONTROLLER
Crockett Refinery Manager un-
derstood to Have Been In
!, ,yited 80 Assist Food Regu-
lation

News 81 high honor to q former
resident Of Honolulu and q probable
regulation Of the price OF sugar
throughout the country, were contain
ed In q cable message received by the
planters yesterday morning. The man
honored is George NJ. Rolph, general
manager of the California & Hawai-
ian Sugar Refining Company, and the
news that he has been invited by
Food Controller Hoover to assist him
particularly in sugar distribution and
control Is taken as forecast of price
regulation.
IA few days ago news came here
that three men representing the Ha-
waiian planters were ready to cooper
ate with the Washington officials
Rolph, Sidney n. Ballou and w. G.
Cooke. Yesterdays news probably Is
g development Of the previous offer
Of cooperation. "a
A message received yesterday morn
ing byrW. .. Smith, secretary Of the.
Hawaiian Sugar Planters Associa-
ton. from Sidney n. Ballou, chairman
OF the associations committee on In
ternational affairs, now IN New York,
said Roiph has been named for posi-
ton on the national food commission,
to work with Hoover. -g,f
No further details have been made
public, but It 10 taken to mean that
Rolph, who ID q recognized national
authority on sugar production and
distribution, viii work with Hoover
In the. organization of q definite pro.
gram dealing with sugar, one Of the
foodstuffs the administration intends
to conserve and control for the dura-
ton Of the war;
When seen by the Star-Bulletin at
noon today, Georg Rodiek, president
Of the H. 8. p. A., said It is up to
the board of directors of the Califor-
MIA & Hawaiian Sugar Refining Com
pany to decide whether Il viii release
Rolph from his duties as general man
ager, to take up the position offered
him by Controller Hoover. CAS- pat
riotic measure no doubt they win
agree to 1t" he said. I
Concerning the belief that the gov
eminent through Hoover and the ma
tional food commission viii set the
market price on raw sugar, President
Rodiek was of the opinion that the
problem will take months to work out
and will not affect the price Of the
1917 crop.
A feeling on the street today. was
that the government intends to set a
price on raw sugar of possibly cents
a pound or Whereabouts, the price to
remain in effect as long as the war
continues. II win undoubtedly be a.
price somewhat above the price of
Cuban sugar, owing TO the difference
under the present tariff law and reel.
procfty treaty which allows Cuban
sugar to enter the United States with
a ~ per cent preferential in tariff.
