Hoke Smith Helping Administration


ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 4.-Cities and
towns in Georgia needing coal must
furnish specific information to Sena-
tor Hoke Smith in Washington, before
he will be able to secure any action
from the fuel administration, accord
ing to kilograms received from the
Senator by the Atlanta Chamber OF
Commerce and other civic bodies over
the state.
In other words, it is not sufficient
to inform the fuel administration
that Atlanta or Macon or Fl. Valley
is short of coal, and the people are
suffering. 1t is necessary to show
the fuel administration a list of the
orders by local dealers which have
been accepted by the mines, and show
the names of the dealers and the
names of the mines. Then the fuel
administration can issue instructions
to such and such a mine to ship such
and such an amount of coal to such
and such a dealer TO such and such
a city or town.
Senator Smith Is devoting practical
ly his entire time, during the present
acute distress, to securing shipments
OF coal to Georgia, and was one Of
the first to urge Mr.. McAdoo, the new
director Of the railroads, to order that
coal be given the right-of-way over
all other freight traffic.

SUGAR SHORTAGE IS
BROUGHT TO AMERICA
BY CHANCES OF WAR

Since the pinch of the sugar
shortage pressed in upon the
sweets-loving American 'populace,
every one who has had a part Of
his regular sugar rations cut
down has asked, either himself or
some one else "Whyi"
In the past France. Italy and the
Low countries raised their own sugar.
England received over ons-half Of her
supply from the Teutonic Empires. in
ported largely from Java. One-half Of
Americas sugar supply IL obtained
from Cuba, one.seventh from the sugar
beet production Of the United States,
one-eiShth from Hawaii, one-twentieth
from Louisiana. and the rest from
Porte Rico. and the Philippines,
Factories Destroyed.
Because Of the destruction Of the
greater part OF their factories. the pro.
duction OF both Italy and Trance has
been cut down to one-third. The Cen.
tral Powers-their regular source 81
supply-hss been cut off. They mast,
therefore. depend almost entirely upon
America.
There 10 vast quantities Of sugar
stored In Java. but neither time nor
ships can be spared while sugar can
be obtained elsewhere by ons-third
the haul.
Why saver
sugar?
They must meet the Allied shortage:
they must release ships formerly used
In the suge.' trade to carry soldiers
and supplies to Europe; they must
make up the loss Of beet sugar lands
and factories captured or destroyed
BY the Germans in Northern France
and Italy. Ships which would have
kept UP the flow Of sugar have been
sunk. Twenty-six thousand tons Of
sugar were lost recently in submarine
raids upon Americas Atlantic coast
Fifty thousand tons of sugar carrying
shipping were transferred to meet the
Requirements Of Belgian relief.
Civil War Price.
In spite Of the shortage, sugar 10
selling all over the United States at
81 cents to 10 cents a pound. During
the Civil War. when no shortage
threatened. sugar sold for 36 cents .
pound owing to speculation which was
rampant and which. In this war, has
been checked by the United States
Food Administration regulations.
Therefore Americans are asked to
save sugar because others need IT, not
to hoard It because boarding 10 selfish,
cowardly and unpatriotic and because
the Food Control act provides fines Of
not more than $1,000 and imprison.
ment for hoarderS.
