EUROPE NEEDS
MILLIONS OF
TONS OF SUGAR
Prevailing Sugar Scarcity in
Europe Expected to Be-
come More Acute.

The Hague, Netherlands. April 1s.
-(Correspondence of the Associated
Press)-Europe will need no less than
1000, 900 tons of sugar from overseas
in 1917. Where is it to come from.
asks DR.. II. c. Primer Geerligs. a
leading Dutch authority.
Communicating in the indian Mer-
oury the results of a careful inquiry
into Europe's sugar problem. as ere
ated by the war, this expert arrives
at the conclusion that the prevailing
sugar scarcity probably will become
still more pronounced In the near flu
ture. It is already certain that the
1016-l7 European crop will be a dis
appointing one. and that in general
an unlimited consumption even in the
countries Of production, regardless OF
the possibility of any export.
The estimates for Germany do not
put the yield at more than 100000
tons. or only enough for a moderate
economical consumption. In Austria
Hungary the production is large
enough for a normal consumption.
None of the European-producing
countries have anything to export,
whereas France, Italy, Switzerland,
Norway and Russia are likely to need
moro or less large imports. Great
Britain is entirely dependent on over
sea countries for its sugar. Putting
the British import requirements in
1917 at 1900, 900 tons. France needs
at 100000 and the import require
ments Of the other countries named at
100000 tons, a total is arrived at Of
2,OOO,O 900 tons.
DR.. Primer Geerligs concludes that
Britain will be mainly dependent for
its supplies on the United States, Cuba
and Java. In Java the crop has turn
ed out very we'll. yielding l.617.000
tons Of sugar. or about 100000 tons
more than in the preceding year. The
area planted for 1911 has been some
what extended. and h prospects of
the mex crop are very good, sc that
about 1000, 900 tons may be again ex-
pected.
In 1916, Cuba and the United States
together sent 1.4S9,446 tons of raw
sugar to Europe. and as Java shipped
over 500, 900 tons tn the same destina-
ton. these countries alone provided
last veal an amount equal to the
present estimated needs. ,
The crops In the United States,
Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philip
pines, are, altogether. a little larger
than the previous year. Sugar con-
sumption in the United States in 1916
was somewhat less than in 1915, while
the Cuba crop for 1917 Is expected to
be larger than that of 1916. There
will thus be certainly as large. and
probably a larger surplus available in
the western hemisphere than last
year. and If adequate cargo space and
shipping facilities are available to
bring it safely across, oversee coun-
tries will be in a position to fully
meet Europe's requirements.
The great question in 1917 thus re-
solves itself into one of transport,
concludes this sugar authority.

Shepard & Chicks Letter

(Received over W. E. Campbelrs pri- vate wire.)
 New Orleans, May s.-A sharp fall in prices resulted in the cotton market this morning from a selling wave which suddenly developed immediately after the opening. This movement ap- peared to start on what the trade took for good prospects of rain in the Texas section. was accelerated by the ex- tremely pessimistic view of the sub- marine situation taken in Washington and was further intensified by the at titude of certain congressman have assumed toward the grain markets of this country.
 In more than one way it was sen timenta1 market and in our opinion the decline was not justified The idea back of the selling was or course. that submarine warfare ulti- mately will reach such proportions as to wholly shut off our foreign ship ments of cotton. No attention at all has been or is being paid to the great quantities of cotton which must have been sunk during the last few weeks, nor to the fact that exports still are 2OO.0O0 bales in excess of our foreign shipments up to this time last year.
 Also. no attention is being paid to the further fact that if 1t were not for submarine warfare this country
 
 in cotton. Our own conviction is that 1T the export movement is shut down to mere dribble for the next five months the spot cotton situation would not suffer to any serious extent
 It Is nervous market and probably Will remain so as long a war cond.- tons have to be discounted. This should lead to caution but should not prevent purchases on such breaks a c were witnessed today

Avery's Letter

Pessimism over submarine activi- ties. 8 cessation of the recent spot de- mand and needed showers in the east ern belt were the features and in- fluences which sold cotton prices off today.
 The market had the appearance yes terday of having reached a point where it was hard to bull and. as I mentioned in yesterdays letter. if the bulls could likely the bulls would join with the bears and help put it down to take the slack out of the market.
 There was a slight rally around the close. caused by scalpers covering, but there seemed to be very little kick back" to it.
 Spots were marked off from 13 to 37 points so far as heard from at this writing and sales were small
 My Judgment is that further set back will be seen before another up- ward move is possible.
 After the close another rumor of a separate peace by Russia was cur rent. These rumors are persistent and if there should be anything to them it would put another puzzling element into the war situation already suffi- ciently mixed
 However, this particular phase of the matter Is idle speculation The submarine which has practically stopped exports. is the main influence now which overshadows all others and untif some method of combating it successfully is devised we may as well look for lower prices, despite the in- trinsic value of cotton. The American spinner Is not going to climb for cot ton when he knows none can he ex- ported C. r. AVERY.
