SUGAR CONTROL
 SAVED MILLIONS
American Consumer Profted by $18o,O00, ,o00-FrenCh Situ-
 atIon Helped.
HOME PRICE HELD AT g CENTS.
This Nations Sugar Supply Reduced to Seventy Per Cent. of Normal.
 Java Stocks Unavailable.

Sugar control has saved the Amer Ican public SlS0, 100000, Herbert Hoov er United States food administrator declared the other day.
 He pointed out that sugar was sell ing for II cents pound last Augusl and that it would have advanced to v cents a pound, with the world short age as stimulus, had not the tood administration secured the co-opera ton of the rehners and wholesalers and fixed sugar price that today en sbles housewives 10 buy sugar at from Sla to cents pound.
 Every 1 cent raise in sugar from September 10 January 1 means SIS, 100000 to the American consumer. Mir. Hoover said. Numbers of gen uemen will tell you that 20 cent sugar would have prevailed and the public robbed of S1S0,0O0,000 this year if we had not taken these actions.' Later Mir. Hoover called attention to the fact that uncontrolled sugar advanced to 35 cents a pound during the Civil War,
 FTdnCc Aot ObT ohHdFs
 Today the American public has been allotted 70 per cent of its normal sup. ply. Before the war the average an nual household consumption here was 55 pounds d person In England tho annual consumption during the war is A pounds, and in France each person is allotted little over one pound n month.
 "ln August the French government found itself unable to maintain even this ration" Mir Hoover declared, "An appeal was made to America. France needed 100000 tons We agreed to fill this demand and up to December had shipped S5,426 tons. In the meantime an appeal was made to the American public io reduce its sug- ar consumption, and requests were made to distributors to supply the confectionery and sweet drinks trade with 50 per cent. of normal supply. This has been generally followed, al though such regulations were yolun- tary. as the food administration had no authority to impose them"
 Domestic Price Is sHs to g Gents.
 Retail grocers throughout the coun try are supposed to take a profit ot no more than 90 cents a hundred-half a cent pound-on sugar. By reason of food administration regulations, bind ing refners and wholesalers, the re- taller Is able today to buy sugar at from to Sia cents a pound This enables him to sell 10 the housewife at S1a to 9 cents q pound,
 There have been some violations of the sugar rulings, Mir. Hoover said recently Sales of sugar from 16 to 70 cents per pound have been reported and followed up vigorously and stop ped and is evidence itself of the prices at which consumers would have been mulct had we not interyened. We have forfeited wholesalers licenses in az. gravated cases, and we have issued warnings to first offenders in a great many instances through our local ad lniuiStra tors "
