Great Demand for Sugar.

The United States sugar equaliza-

day warning American distributors
that unless they place orders early
they may not be able to obtain suf-
ficient sugar to meet the demands of
the canning season.
Reports from Europe" said the
statement, indicate an even greater
demand for sugar than was expected.
AS soon as shipping is more plentiful
so that Europe may begin importing
it's sugar supplies in larger quanti-
ties the demand on American refn-
cries will be so heavy that they will
find difficulty in caring for orders
that will come in later from Ameri-
can Dealers"

Here is a story of inhumanlty
which, while it does not deal with
some of the crimes committed by
Germany, shows the vileness of the
campaign of that nation of looters as
if looted Roubaix and forced its peo-
pie to endure privations and suffer-
ings which were enough to have
broken the hearts and destroyed the
lives of almost any people on earth.
What was done in that town was
only in keeping with the definite plan
of the German nation to loot wherev-
er things could be looted and Carried
back to Germany, and to destroy
wherever looting was not profitable.
Let it be borne in mind that SIM
liar story could be written by mil
lion Frenchmen, and even things far
worse could be told by many tens OF
thousands. 1t was not simply the
German government that carried on
these crimes-it was the German SOL
diers backed by the government and
by the people back at home, men,
women and children who gloated in
having their sons and their husbands
and fathers in this campaign of mur-
der and looting. And shall we let
such people go unpunished?-Manu-

The Czecho-Slovak republic was al
