AS appears from the table, France,
Italy, Russia and Belgium were self
supporting, while the United Kingdom
drew it's entire sugar supply from ex-
terror sources. The supply of the Unit
ed Kingdom came to the amount of
about 20 per cent from countries from
which it is now cut off by the war.
Ten per cent came from the East In
dies and 20 per cent from the United
States and the West Indies.
The prospective 1918 crop in France
has diminished to 207OO0 tons and
that of Italy to $4,000 tons, and they
are therefore short $4,000 tons. The
displacement of United Kingdom sup
plies amounts to 1,435,000 tons; and
therefore, in total, these three allied
countries must import about 100000
tons in order to maintain their normal
consumption. OF this, 100000 tons
must come from new sources.

duces the tonnage available and drives

HANDS WITH LOEB-HOLPUCH

ElHINDS WI n LOED-TlOLTOS W.T.
The Thompson-Lundin organiza-
ton of the City Hall has Joined hands
with the LOeb-HolpUch forces of the
board Of education in an attempt to
defeat Aldermen Merriam, Buck,
Kearns, Werner and Kennedy. These
five aldermen now running for re-
election took decisive stands against
measures urged in City Hall by
Mayor Thompson and the public
schools system by Jake Loeb.
The water pipe boys and the garb-
age and ash wagon drivers are al
most to man working for ThOmp-
son-Lundin candidates against Mer-
Tiam, Buck, Kearns, Warner and
Kennedy.

in my ward hands down, with no Op-
position" said Aid. Werner. The
day before the council vote on the
budget I was asked by Vim. A. Bither,
the Thompson leader in my ward, to
vote against the finance committee
recommendations. I was told if I did
that l would have no opposition for
the nomination. l refused. l voted
against the resolutions of Aid. Mich

who wanted to load the budget. 1

comes the information that they
had been asked to quietly campaign
for the candidates opposed to Mer-

Public utilities money and inhu-
ence is talked about as one of the
factors in the wards of Merriam,
Buck, Kearns, Werner and Kennedy.
These five voted solidly against the
Automatic phone grab; against the
l. G. lake front steal; against the
ThOmpsOn-Lundin attempt to take
the gas litigation out of the hands
of Don Richberg and put it in the
mitts of VIM. A. Bither; against the
request of Chief Healey for $450,000
to buy rifles and cartridges and hire
1000 extra police during the street
car strike; against the Chicago &

against Mayor ThOmpsOn's policy
during the garment strike.
Kearns in the 31st is about as fine
a sample of an Independent alderman
as there is in the city council All
his speeches are short and he doesn't
take the floor unless he has some
thing to say. On board of education
matters Kearns has earned the OPP
position of Jake Loeb and the sup
port of the Woman's City club and
officers of wOmen's organizations
who don't approve of the way Jake
Loeb has wrecked civil service. These
are among 31st ward supporters Of
