AMERICAN SUGAR
SENT TO FRANCE
American Price Rigidly Regulated
by United States Food
Administration.
CONSUMERS HERE PAY &c.
Sugar Cost 35 Cents Pound During
Civil War-Refiners' Profits
Now Curtalled.

Sugar is selling today throughout
America at from 80 to 8 cents
pound to the consumer, even though
there is a world shortage which mas
reduced this nations sugar allotment
to 10 per cent. of normal.
Through the efforts Of the United
States food administration the sugar
market has been regulated as far AZ
the producer. retiner and wholesaler
is concerned. The food administration
has no power to regulate retail prices
except by public opinion. Even though
more than $4,000 tons of sugar have
been shipped to France in the last
four months the retail grocer's sugar
price is around 8 to So cents. He
should sell this sugar at s1a to y
cents the food administration believes,
and asks the American housewife to
pay no more than this amount.
Last August when the food admin
istration was organized the price or
sugar rose suddenly to IL cents
pound. During the Civil War sugar
cost the consumer IS cents pound.
BY regulation OF the sugar market and
reducing the price to S1z and 9 cents
and keeping 1t from advancing to ~
cents the food administration has saw
ed the American public at least $780,
100000 in four months, according to
a statement made by Herbert Hoover
the other day
ut is our stern duty to feed the al
lies, to maintain their health and
strength at any cost to ourselves,
Mr.. Hoover declared. There has not
been. nor will be as we see it, enough
sugar for even their present meagre
and depressing ration unless they send
ships to remote markets for it. If we
In our greed and gluttOny force them
either to further reduce their ration
or to send these ships we will have
done damage to our abilities to win
this war
az we send the ships to Java
for 250,00 tons of sugar next year
we will have necessitated the en-
ployment of eleven extra ships for
one year. These ships-if used In
transporting troops-would take
10000 to 100000 men to France"
Reason for World Shortage.
As Mr. Hoover pointed out, the
United States, Canada and England
were sugar importing countries before
the war; while France and Italy were
very nearly self supporting. The main
sources Of the worlds sugar supply
was Germany and neighboring powers,
the West indies and the East Indies.
German sugar is no longer available,
as 1t is used entirely In Germany,
which also absorbs sugar OF surround
ing countries.
England can no longer buy 1,4O0,O
long tons Of sugar each year from
Germany. The French sugar produc.
ton has dropped from 100000 to 21as

SOMEt EFFECTS OF PRICE
FIXING

Perhaps the most likely place to
find horse sense is on a farm. any
wav. there is an Idaho farmer who
has a supply of horse sense and
the courage to display it. The state
food administrator having COM
menced an alteration with him
over the use of wheat, he came back
with the information that he can
buy wheat flour for S5.45 per hun
bred while corn meal costs Sd a
hundred. that for stock feeding pur-
poses his wheat is worth S2.25 a
hundred on the ranch but if he sub
stituted oats they cost him S3.55 a
hundred and if he substitutes corn
it costs him S4.25 a hundred. He
marketed carload of hogs which
he had fattened on the S2.25 wheat,
after trying to buy corn and finding
that it would cost him S425. He
would have lost money on the hogs
if he had fattened them on corn.
Perhaps the government price ixers
who never produced either wheat or
corn or hogs will say that he
should have raised the hogs at a
loss. What say you?
