AMERICANS AND FRENCH
SLAUGHTER GERMANS ON

SUGAR SUPPLY
CUT AGAIN
Drastic Order from the State
Food Conservation Com
mission.

Sale of sugar to retail dealers
was stopped yesterday in Nog-
ales by order of Timothy Riordan,
chairman of the State Food Con-
servation Commission. The order
came by wire to Acting County
Food Administrator Benz, Jones,
as follows:
Notify wholesalers and job
bers not to sell sugar to retailers
in case of normal requirements,
even on presentation of certifca-
tes."
This was one clause in a long
message containing an order that
retailers must hereafter keep
loose leaf record Of all sales of
sugar to customers, the record of
each sale to show the name,
number, address, amount sold,
and number of persons in the
family The record must be kept
and report must be made
weekly to the count y food admi-
nistrator of all sales made.
Regarding the suspension OF
sales to retailers, Mr., Jones said
last evening that the order was
so unexpected that he he'd wired
Mr.. Riordan asking more explicit
directions
1T may be that there was an
error in the message, said Mr..
Jones, "and that abnormal irs-
tead of normal requirements
was intended. l will know by
tomorrow noon whether the order
was transmitted, and absolute
cessation of sales was intended.
Until then, to be on the safe
side, have suspended all sales.
Meanwhile retailers who
happen to be out of sugar, as
we'll as restaurants and eating
houses that are caught short,
cannot get a pound of sugar.
The oder that retailers keep a
record of sales, and report to the
local food administrator weekly,
is evidently intended to prevent
selling more than the legal
amount to any individual. But to
make the plan effective the food
administrator would have to tab
ulate the'reports from the hundr
ed or more retailes in the county,
and that he could not do without
additional clerical assistance, and
that has not been granted as yet
by the state food administ ator,
although a request for such
assistance has been made by Mr..
Jones.
1.-The ultimate result will prob
ably be the adoption of a card
system to govern sales by retail
lers," said Mr.. Jones That
plan has already been put into

new restrictive rule became
known to him, he will not be able
to purchase any more sugar until
the expiration of five months
the ten sacks being the amount
the new rule allows him for that
period.
Mr.. Jones has ordered a ship
ment of corn sugar, or glucose
which is not under restriction
and it will be tried here to see
how far it can be substituted for
ane and beet sngar.
