SHIPPERS OF SUGAR
FEEL CONFIDENT
RELIEF IS COMING
m Suite Of Fact That Two Chief
Regular Carriers Go On
other Run Hope Rises
RAPID BUlDIN6 UPON
MAINLAND IS REASON
Situation Is Admittedly More
Serious Bot Adequate Relief
May Be On Its Way

Among the shippers Of sugar there is
. rather b-tt"r feeling, more confidence
that rrIisf will soon come although this
srsms 10 he rather Of an anomalous sit
usfian in the face Of the two most
reIlahIr sugar carriers from this run
20 use on SDme other. There Is no
specific affirmation that has recent
" reached Honolulu to warrant this
Bat the feeling results more from the
EssFral news
R-Dar,s II the rapid building Of ships
o. the mainland are encouraging sugar
shipper. ~ the belief that relief to the
sopErsisun here may soon come from
that soirrr 81 supply. There are some
Who loUk frr il to come as early as
Bs1t month, possibly by the middle Of
the month. The argument they advance
90 support their growing confidence is
that with 90 many new vessels leaving
tie Eays On the Pacific Coast and with
az government well aware Of the large
sEaunt Of sugar piIing up here and
Elrsady on hand, provision win be made
for the moving Of the sugar by means
% sOmr AZ those new ships.
TNsOEy Finds support
Thsr- - reason to be found in sup

Il has ben Impossible 10 keep sugar
u1nyiug in speed with production and
sarh geek there has been an addition
- the sfosk Of raws in storage await
Fzg transportation. There can be no
