SPIRIT OF FRANCE
CLOVIS IN SACRIFICE
OF LITTLE CHILDREN

Much has been told of the spirit
Of France since the war began.
Many heroic things - victories,
sacrifices, courage beyond belief.
accomplishing resistance TO the
slow agony Of hunger, cold and
personal loss, have developed from
this marvellous, idealistic devo-
ton TO their own land.
But listen to this tale, We who

Last winter sugar was scarce in
France, even as j; is now, 50 scarce

WORLD SHORTAGE
IN Beet SUGAR
Crops Are 40 Per Cent. Less
Than Pre-War Average-Cen-
trail Powers Hit Hardest.
CANE SUGAR IS ISOLATED.
Allied Beet Production Falls one-snirs
In Rigid War Economy
Practieed.

The world today is producing forty
per cent. less beet sugar than the pre-
war average.
Counting the American, Allied ana
German-Austrian crops. as well as the
neutraIs, the Z. s. Food Administra-
tion has estimated that the word
shortage created by the light crop OF
lsl7-191s is at least three and haii
million tons.
Thai the l9I7-19lS crop Of cane sug-
ar was two million tons in excess OF
the prev,ous year does not relieve the
general shortage.
Cuba and Java produce one-half OF
the world cane crol and the Java sug-
ar is too far removed from America to
transport when shipping is badly need
ed TO transport and maintain the MILL
tary forces in France.
In Java large part OF the old sugar
crop Is still awaiting shipment Since
II REQUIRES $50 to 160 days for each
boat that is sent to Java, the possibili-
ties of obtaining adequate shipments
OF Java sugar this season aO remote.
Allies Production Falls.
Taking the Allied nations as group,
official reports show that beet sugar
production Is less by one-third than the
pre-war average.
French beet sugar industry has suf-
fered most by the war. The French
yield Of beet sugar is now only 29.1
per cent. of the pre-war average.
For the five years preceding the out
break OF hostilities in Europe. France
produced an average of 752. .542 tons of
sugar each year. For 1917-1S the
French production was 219,416 tons.
With 6l factories operating. as COM
pared with more than 200 that were
in existence before the war and before
the general campaign Of destructive
ness launched by the German armies,
France nevertheless managed to man.
facture more beet sugar In 1918
than In 1861. when the total output
was 202. .415 tons.
Italy in l917-fs produced 100,oOO
tons Of beet sugar, which was $1,000
tons less than the previous year AMI
11O.25O less than the annual output Of
sugar for the i've year pre-war Pc
Rod.
One Of the great difficulties expert
enced in Italy's beet sugar industry
was finding sufficient labor to handle
the crop. Thousands Of men usually
employed in beet sugar production
were called for military service. The
Yield per acre amounted to approx
mately half Of the usual quantity ct
haatS harvested.
