Sugar and Ships

In the interest of the public it serves, the
American Sugar Refining Company is earnestly
supporting the Governments policy to regulate
the supply Of sugar 50 that it shall be sufficient
for the needs of all-our soldiers, Our Allies
and ourselves.
With the crop Of cane sugar coming in the sugar
situation is favorable than it aSo There
will be enough according present Indications if ex.

At the same time, an abun-
dance of sugar was and still
is locked up in far-away Java,
as unavailable as unmined
gold-because ships cannot be
spared to transport it.
Every 5,ooo-ton ship which
can be saved by giving
England sugar from Cuba
means the release Of a ship
which can make three trips
and take a total Of 5000 SOL
diers from the United States
to France.
If we can save the Allies
from taking any Java sugar
in 1918, we will release for
transport purposes enough
ships to carry over to the
Western front and supply
about 100000 to 100000
soldiers.
At the same time, we will
also be giving the Allies the
necessary sugar. Therefore,
it is to the interest Of the
common cause to save ships
and send soldiers.
The American Sugar Re-
filming Company has put forth
every possible effort to keep
up the supply Of sugar for the
United States. even in limited
quantities, and to stabilize
the price to the consumer.
In order to enable thewidest
possible distribution Of sugar
so that all may have some
susar-we distribute Domino
Cane Sugars in convenient
size packages.
These small unit cartons
and cotton bags enable gro
GERS to limit their sales SO that
waste and boarding may be
prevented.

~sAA ~AA~ AANW \AOR VA "a
situation is more favorable II
will be sugar enough, accordi
trava&ant use and waste are a.
War has disturbed the
whole worlds sugar supply.
1t has not only wiped out any
available surplus, but it has
put all nations ON a hand-to-
mouth basis.
The European Allies were
the first tofeel the pinch.
Before the war, enough sugar
was produced on the Con-
tinent to supply all Europe.
Today, two-thirds Of this
susar-producing area is with
in the battle lines.
England, France and other
nations have had to turn
elsewhere for a supply Of this
indispensable food.
And they came to Cuba
the main source upon which
the United States depends for
its cane sugar. During 1917,
Cuba sold and shipped to
Europe nearly 100000 tons
OF raw susar-one-third Of its
crop.
In addition to the normal
increase in the consumption
Of sugar as food in this coun-
try, the nationwide move
ment to save the fruit crop
last season greatly increased
its use.
But this increased con-
sumption Of sugar has been a
real factor in combating
waste. 1t enabled the Ameri-
can housewife to add to the
store Of the food Of the ma
ton at a time when fruits
and vegetables were plenti-
full and cheap.
The sugar is not only in the
fruit jar, but it has carried
into the pantries Of the coun-
try a vast supply Of fruit and
vegetables which would
otherwise have been lost.
Sugar itself is not only a food,
but it is also the great pre-
server Of other foods.
AS the demand Tor sugar
grew, both here and abroad,
Cuba's suppl y was exhausted
last fall. Every available
ton in Porto Rico and other
cane sugar countries was &C.
quired. But this was not
enough, and the shortage
came.

I, therefore, in the national inter-

The White House, Washington, D. G.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1918-01-28

President Wilson has issued the fol-
lowing proclamation:
Many causes have contributed to-
create the necessity for a more inten-
sive effort on the part of our people
to save food in order that we may
supply our associates in the war with
the sustenance vitality necessary to
them in these days of privation and
stress. The reduced productivity OF
Europe because of the large diversion
of man-power to the war, the partial
failure of harvests and the elimina-
ton of the more distant markets for
food-stuffs through the destruction of
shipping, places the burden of their
subsistence very largely on our shOul-
ders.
The food administration has form
ulated suggestions which if followed
will enable us to meet this great re-
sponsibility without any real incon-
venience on our part.
In order that we may reduce our
consumption of wheat and wheat
products by 80 per cent-a reduction
imperatively necessary to provide the
supply for overseas wholesalers,
jobbers and retailers should purchase
and resell to their customers only 70
per cent of the amounts used in 1917.
All manufacturers of alimentary
pastes, biscuits, crackers, pastry and
breakfast cereals should reduce their
purchase and consumption of wheat
and wheat flour to 70 per cent OF
those of last year or when buying
bread, should purchase mixed cereal
bread from the bakers.
To provide sufficient cereal food,
homes, public eating places, dealers
and manufacturers, should substitute
potatoes, vegetables, corn, barley,
oats and rice products and the mixed
cereal bread and other products of
the bakers which contain an admix-
ture of other cereals. In order that
consumption may be restricted to this

of the attempts that have already been
made by European agriculturists to
make their farms virtually autonomous
as far as foodstuffs are concerned.
