NEW YORK TODAY FACES
SERIOUS SUGAR FAMINE
Some Stores Stop Selling; Others Ask
as High as IL Cents
Pound.

NEW YORK. October 1s.-With the
market practically bare of Cuban cane
sugar, the new beet crop not available
here before December. half of the big
refneries shut down and the others run
ming only half time. New York is facing
the most serious sugar famine in its
history. Some stores have stopped SELL
ing sugar altogether. and others are
limiting the amount purchased by each
customer Prices as high as IL cents a
pound retail are quoted.
Raw sugar brokers said today that
only about $4,000 tons of old-crop sugar
remained in Cuba, and this is held most
" by spectators. who paid high prices
for it, and refuse to sell. There are
10000 tons, owned by neutrals. in ware
houses here, on which no license to ex-
port can be obtained, and it is thought
that this may be taken over to help out
the shortage in France. Louisiana is ex-
pected to supply about e75,0o0 tons OF
raw but this will not be available here
for a month yet. even If shipped
promptly. 1t is predicted that the con-
sumner in New York and vicinity Will
find it very difficult to buy sugar until
the new Cuban crop gets here in JAM

left the gunner to correct the stop
page, rushed forward, and, single-hand-
ed. held the Germans back until he him
self was killed by a rife shot. Rein
forcements shortly arrived and the enc
my was beaten off.
The second Canadian. Private Harry
Brown, late of a Canadian infantry bat
TALON, after the capture of a position
and a massed counter attack, when the
situation became critical, was given a
message with orders to deliver 1t at
headquarters at all costs. His compan-
ion messenger was killed and one OF
Browns arms was shattered, but he con-
tinued through the intense barrage un-
til he came near the support lines
There he found an. officer but he was so
badly injured that he fell down the dug
out steps. He retained consciousness
long enough to hand over the message
saying, important message" He died
in dressing room few hours later.
