Each Allied nation-in the matter Of

In the world sugar situation.
Formerly classed as luxury, sugar
Ia now a war time essential. The fair
and just division Of this essential is
In the hands Of the various Allied
food controllers.
The United States Food Administra-
ton has asked this nation to observe
a voluntary sugar ration of two
pounds per person q month.
In the other countries at war with
Germany sugar is one of the scarce
articles on every menu-whether in
the households of both rich and poor
or In the hotels.
England today has sugar ration
of two pounds per month per person
In France the ration Is a pound and a
half and in Italy 1t Is one pound q
month. And the. prices in, allied coun.
tries are from two to three times as
high as in America.
If you go to q hotel in England OF
France these days and order tea OF
coffee they serve absolutely no sugar

German Sugar Ration Adequate.
Germany, before the war, produced
a great surplus of sugar and exported
large quantities. Today the German:
have virtually gone out of the expor

sugar for home use.
Wholesale prices prevalent In thu
Allied nations, according to informa

Food Administration are as follows
England, 10 cents a pound; France
IL cents; Italy. 20 cents.
While these high prices are being
paid abroad the American wholesale

Increase ........... 944, 900 lbs.
Our slaughterable animals at the be-
ginning of the last fiscal year were not
appreciably larger than the year be-
fore and particularly In hogs; they
were probably less The increase In
shipments is due to conservation and
the extra weight Of animals added by
our farmers.
The full effect of these efforts began
to bear their best results In the last
half of the fiscal year. when the ex-
ports to the Allies were 2,133, 100000
pounds, as against 1,266, 800 900 pounds
in the same period of the year before.
This compares with an average of
801 100000 pounds of total exports for
the same half years in the three-year
pre-war period.

duced to terms of cereal bushels our
shipments to Allied destinations have

Meat and Fat Shipments Increased by
s44, 100000 Pounds.

Conservation measures applied by
the American people enabled the Unit
ed States to ship to the Allied peoples
and to our own forces overseas 141.
100000 bushels Of wheat and 844, 000,-
600 pounds of meat during the past
year, valued in all at 81, 900, 900.
This was accomplished In the face of
serious food shortage in this country,
bespeaking the wholeheartedness and
patriotism with which the American
people have met the food crisis abroad.
Food Administrator Hoover, In q let
ter to President Wilson, explains how
the situation was met. The voluntary
conservation program fostered by the
Food Administration enabled the piling
up Of the millions Of bushels of wheat
during 1918 and the shipment of
meat during 1917-16.
The total value of all food ship
ments to Allied destinations amounted
TO 81, 400, 100000 all this food being
bought through or In collaboration
with the Food Administration. These
figures are all based on official reports
and represent food exports for the
harvest year that closed June 80, 1918.
The shipments Of meats and fats
tincluding meat products, dairy prod
ucts, vegetable oils, etc., to Allied des-
tinations were as follows:
