SUGAR SHOWED
our BACKBONE
American Willingness to Give Up
Luxury Demonstrated Ma
tons War Conscience.
STAND WITH THE ALLIES.
BY Reducing Consumption People of
the United States Averted a
Famine at Home in Spite
of Low Supplies.

The fact that the people of the
United States were able to reduce by
/ more than one-half million tons their
July, August, September and October
| consumption of sugar proves conclu-
Sively that their war conscience was
thoroughly awakened and that the
country as whole stood ready to fol
low the injunctiOns of the Government.
Our normal consumption of sugar in
the four-month period beginning with
July has been 100000 tons per month,
total of 100000 for the quarter
year.
In July, when our sugar stringency
began to reach it's height, consumption
was reduced to 100000 tons In Au-
gust only 325,000 tons went into dis
tribution and in September only 279-
900 tons. In October the distribution
fell to 100000 tons.
If the general public had failed to
observe the injunctions of the Food
Administration this country would
have been in the throes of a sugar
famine before the end of August Our
visible supplies were so low as to bring
great anxiety to those familiar with
the sugar situation. They feared that
it would be absolutely impossible to
reduce consumption to a point where
sugar would no longer be mere lux
ury in the American diet.
Few accomplishments of the Food
Administration will stand forth so pre-
dominantly as this reduced consump-
tiOn of sugar. By it we have been able
to bridge over the period of stringency
until the new beet and Louisiana cane
sugar crops were in sight
Now the nation is in position so
that if We choose we may return to
our normal home use of sugar and
Europe, with the release Of ships to go
far afield can maintain it's recent re-
stricted rations. If, however, those
nations are to increase their use of
sugar very considerably 1t must be by
our continued sharing with them
through limiting our own consump-
lion
