NO SUGAR FAMINE LIKELY.
Situation Better Than at Any Time
Since War Began.

WASHINGTON, July 9-Defnite as
surances that there was no danger of a
sugar famine was given by the food adj
ministration today and the food situation
generally was declared to be better than
at any time since America undertook the
feeding of the allied world.
The American public, however, will be
expected to observe closely the new regu-
lations limiting the household per capita
consumption of sugar to three pounds
monthly and to continue all other con-
servation measures at least in part.
Whatever saving provided for in regula
tions that may become necessary to re-
move all danger of famine will be done
by manufacturers.
1t is pointed out that even with the
prospects of a 90000.000 bushel wheat
crop there can be little if any lessening
of present conservation measures The
available supply of last years crop is
low That meatless and wheatless re-
strictions will be removed entirely was
declared by the food administration as
highly improbable while the war lasts
