FRANCE AND BELGIUM
GET AMERICAN SUGAR

Ninety-five per cent. Of all refined
sugar sent from the United States to
the Allied nations went to France and
Belgium during the first five months
Of this year.
France got y per cent, or nearly
83, 100000 pounds, and Belgium receiv-
ed nearly 100000 pounds, or % per
cent.
In each country this sugar was doled
out by strict rationlng organization.
The entire amount to the Allies In
these Ave months-23,7 91 tons, almost
half of which was shipped in Mays
only about one-half of I per cent. of
our total annual consumption.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1918-08-09

The sugar supplies throughout the
country, in homes, stores, factories and
bakeries, are at low ebb; the produc.
tion from the American beet and
Louisiana cane crops have been disap.
pointing; the yield In Porto Rico has
likewise been smaller than anticipat-
ed, and the inability Of the United
States and the Allies to secure sugar
from Java and other distant sources
on account Of the imperative call for
ships for the movement Of troops and
their supplies has materially reduced
the supply from such quarters. Added
to this already difficult situation, tho
quantity needed by the Army and
Navy greatly exceeds earlier estl-
mates; we must send large amount
to France and Italy to take the place
OF the great volume lost through tho
German and Austrian invasions, dur
ing which much beet land was over
run and many factories destroyed; we
have to supply certain quantities to
neutral nations under agreements; and
finally over fifty million pounds were
lost recently through submarine sink.
inos off our Atlantic coast.
The Food Administration Is conf
dent that the american people, with
the record Of wheat savings behind 1t,
having by voluntary savings sent 14O,-
900, 900 bushels of wheat to the Allies
after practically every bushel had been
exhausted from our normal surplus,
will with the same spirit save the
sugar situation Of the world.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1918-08-09
MUST USE LESS SUGAR:
ALLIED NEEDS GROW
Americans Asked to Use No More Than
Two Pounds Per Person
Per Month.
Shortage May Last Until Beginning, of 1919
When New Sugar Crop Arrives.

After making a careful survey of the
! world sugar situation the U. s. Food
Administration has asked the Ameri-
can public to USE NO MORE THAN
TWO POUNDS OF SUGAR PER PER-
SON A MONTH until January I, 1919.
Increased sugar demands from the
Allied nations-where the present sug-
ar ration Is already reduced to the
lowest possible level-and the need of
keeping our army and navy supplied
are two of the leading causes of the
curtailment Of Americas sugar ration.
Americans are requested to make
two pounds Of sugar per person (half
q pound q weekly serve for all sugar
uses In the Notwithstanding cook
ing and all sugar served at the table.
Public eating places, as well as
housewives, will be required to limit
their use Of sugar to two pounds for
every ninety meals served. In the
d. S. Food Administrators cafeteria
at Washington, where employees of the
Food Administration take their noon
meal, one pound Of sugar Is used for
every 120 meals served.
The u. s. Food Administration Is
confident that the American public will
heartily agree to reduce household use
of sugar here to level more nearly
equal to the present restrictions
among the Allied nations.
The situation which the United
States faces In Its efforts to maintain
a fair distribution of sugar to the AL
lied world Is as follows:

It has been done before. hundred years ago re-
fined sugar unknown. Our ancestors used honey and
you honey also Besides there syrups. The
natural of fruits will today they did

way The Allies do it England, which before the
used more sugar than we did, has but two pounds
per head month now; France and half pounds,
and Italy only Show yourself patriotic American

Liberal New England

New Englanders have never Jagged
behind when there has been a call to
patriotic duty, And now, when greater
demands than ever before are made
upon them they have stood Loyalty to the
test. In the three previous issues of
Liberty bonds they have bought
literally; they have bought generously
of War Savings Stamps and have
contributed largely to the various
forms of war relief and now they are
rec ly to subscribe to the Fighting
Fourth Liberty Loan, all, and more, it is
believed, than the amount assigned them.
They have confidence in their Govern
ment; they will literally bank on their
boys Over There and will pour out the
millions so long as there is need for them
to prosecute the war and bring it to a
speedy, victorious end.
