Americans Asked to Use No More Than

When New Sugar Crop Arrives.

The sugar supplies throughout the

States and the ALLIES to secure sugar

After making q careful survey Of the
world sugar situation the q. 8. Food
Administration has asked the Ameri-
can public to USE NO MORE THAN
TWO POUNDS OF SUGAR PER PER-
SON A MONTH until January 1, 1919.
Increased sugar demands from the
Allied nations-where the present sug-
ar ration Is already reduced to the
lowest possible level-and the need Of
keeping our army and navy supplied
are two Of the leading causes of the
curtailment of Americas sugar ration
Americans are requested to make
two pounds Of sugar per person (half
a pound a week. serve for all sugar
uses In the Notwithstanding cook
ing and all sugar served at the table.
Public eating places, as well as
housewives, will be required to limit
their use OF sugar to two pounds for
every ninety meals served In the
o. S. Food Administrations cafeteria
at Washington. where employees Of the
Food Administration take their noon
meal. one pound Of sugar Is used for
every 100 meals served.
The U. s. Food Administration is
confident that the American public will
heartily agree to reduce household use
OF sugar here to level more nearly
equal TO the present restrictions
among the Allied nations
The situation which the United
States faces In its efforts to maintain
fair distribution Of sugar to the Al
lied world Is as follows:
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1918-08-16

OVER rs per cent of the sugar used in the United
~ States is delivered by ships. There is produced
about 100000 tons of beet sugar and tons of
cane sugar in Louisiana The total consumption of the
United States about 100000 tons of sugar which
makes about 4250,00O tons of refined sugar.
If our coasts were blockaded as Germanys are
we would have available for the of the people of the
United States only pound of sugar for every four
use Under such circumstances there doubt that the
American people would get along this limited supply
without complaint
The United States Food Administration is asking
every American household to not more than two
pounds of sugar person each month for domestic
use Reducing our sugar consumption here means that
we will be able to help supply the needs of France Eng
land and Italy. Sugar conservation the American
table also means conservation of ships.
