These conditions. and especially the
necessity Of saving ships. led the United
States and the Allied Nations to urge
upon the suSar industry the adoption
by voluntary agreement Of the original
Hoover plan, under the authority Of
the Food Control Act, passed August
10, 1917.
The cane-suSar refiners and the
beet-susar producers unanimously
agreed to the Hoover plan as patri.
otic act in the interest Of the American
people and as an aid to the Allies.
This is the significance Of the ap.
pointment by the United States Food
Administration Of the International
Sugar Committee to which the Allies
send representatives for England.
France. Italy and Canada. and to which
the United States contributes three
members.
Upon the success Of the operation Of
the International Sugar Committee un.
der the directions Of the Allied Gov.
ernments. acting for practically half the
civilized world. will depend the read.
justment Of the worlds sugar markets.
This plan is full Of promise to all the
nations party to the convention.
It's an assurance that sugar. although
comparatively cheap in view Of war
conditions, will not by reason either Of
competitive or speculative activity bs
increased in wholesale price.
Sugar will become stabilized in price
with sufficient profit to producers. refin-
ers and merchants to maintain and
stimulate production and to cover the
cost Of refining and Of distribution.
The marketing Of Franklin Cane

giving wide distribution among the
retailers Of the reduced sugar supplies.

This plan was favorably received by
the sugar refining industry. which had
been on war basis almost from the
beginning Of the European War.
The war had brought the Allies into
the Cuban market. resulting in severe
domestic and nternational competition
with no increased supplies. Naturally
prices Of refined sugar, both to the
American public and to the Allies. rose
under this forced draft.
Domestic sugar refiners. since the
outbreak Of the European War not only
have safeSuarded the United States
supply but have maintained the lowest
sugar prices in the world.
This brilliant record is due largely to
the fact that sugar refining is in the
hands Of large business units. with an
excess Of refining capacity sufficient to
supply all domestic needs. and 50 far all
demands Of foreign countries.
In the spring Of 1917 there was
serious attempt at the disorsanization
Of the sugar refining industry. following
long series Of attempts at destruction
Of sugar ships.
Accompanying these incidents were
widely circulated sensational reports
predicting sugar famine and sugar
shortage. causing widespread appre-
hension.
At that time. even with the assurance
Of ample supplies on hand. retail sugar
prices rose in some sections to 20 and Is
cents pound.
The efforts Of the Franklin Sugar
Refining Company to allay public
alarm. to check hoArdins. to accept a
price less than that which it could easily
have secured. and to distribute its
product fairly and evenly among the
trade. were Of real public service.
While there were great supplies Of
sugar in far away Java which ordinarily
would have gone to Europe, yet the
necessity for saving ships became 50
great that Europe turned to Cuba for
even larger supplies than previously.
It takes cargo ship $50 days to make
around trip between England and Java.
while round trip between England and
Cuba can be made in 50 days.
Under these circumstances and SEEM

States war taxes on refined sugar the

J. OF 4. FINISHES
 SEASON WITH MIN Marion Nine No Match for Varsity Sluggers-Mc-
 Whorter Goes Good

University, May 1o.-(Special)-Th University of Alabama ended up the sea- son yesterday by another victory over the. Marion Cadets by the score of II to U. Mar1on was never able to hit Me Whorter, who twirled for Alabama, and Alabama was able to pound Cobb at all times. This was the last of the season for Alabama.
 Alabama never played better baseball than on yesterday. The weakness of the opposition prevented much sensational work being done, but at all times the Alabama bunch was master of the situa- tion. D. Boone surprised everyone by getting a clean home run Daniel is fa- nous for getting on bases He has fewer at bats marked against him than almost anyone else on the team, but he has been on bases more than almost any other man, as he possesses the ability to scare any pitcher into walking him. Lena Stiles clouted the old pill for three sacks and flock of doubles were knocked. Ala bama finished the season up in her half of the eighth by a great batting fest, scoring five runs.
 McWhorter pitched good ball for Ala bama throughout. He has been handi- capped all this year by a sore arm and has been able to play but little Cobb
 
 was faulty. This has been one of the very best seasons that Alabama has ever had, only one game has been lost on the campus, and this to Louisiana State University, and one away from home to Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical Every series has been won. It has not only been 8 winning team, but better bunch of fellows were never gotten to- gether on ball club.
 Capt. Daniel Boone has piloted them through the season successfully and de- serves mucn credit for the showing that they have made. Coach Lonnie Noojin found an almost entireiy green squad to pick his team from and has developed it into one of the best teams that has ever worn the crimson. Student support of the team has been unusually good and in every way the season was one of the best ever experienced at Alabama.
