The Sugar Situation

America, which made exports of 140,-
100000 bushels of wheat in the closing
crop year, where less than 10000, 900
bushels surplus appeared, is called upon
now to exercise like virtue with sugar.
The burden of maintaining Allied sup
plies falls on our resources.
No sugar comes from Central Europe,
none from Java; from Hawaii and West
Indies less than usual.
French sugar territory is overrun BY
German armies; French sugar mills are
taken and destroyed.
Submarine sinkings and losses by bat
tie have cost US great stores; labor short
age makes inroads on production.
For England the allowance is two
pounds of sugar a month; for France, one
pound; for Italy, one pound. America
seeks to share equally with all who sit
at the common table, Joined in the COM
