reduction. In Europe the present ra-
ton is already reduced to a minimum.
Our Situation.
The situation which the United
States faces In its efforts to maintain
fair distribution of sugar to the Al
lied world is as follows:
Sugar supplies throughout the coun-
try, in homes, stores, factories and
bakeries are at low ebb. We must
make increased sugar shipments to the
Allies.
Production Of American beet and
Louisiana cane crops have been disap-
pointing.
Porto Rico crops have been cur
tailed.
Immense sugar stocks In Java can
not be reached on account Of the ship
ping shortage; ships are needed for
troop movements and munitions.
Army and Navy sugar requirements
have increased as well az those from
the Allies.
Most Industries using sugar have had
their allotment reduced by one-half ;
some will receive no sugar.
Households should make every ef-
fort to preserve the fruit crop without
sugar. or with small amounts of sugar.
