The "All-American Sugar
League" is being launched in
Florida and will be incorporated
as a non-proft organization for
the purpose of promoting the

South, in order that this country
may have an adequate supply at
a reasonable price and will not be
obliged to use German sugar af-

proved sugar cane will grow pro-
lifcally and cheaply and will
make the finest kind of sugar.
Such league should have thous-
