The Boom in Sugars

Speculative interest in the sugar
stocks continued without abatement
yesterday. Most Of the group held
their gains of last week and forged
further ahead. The argument of the
operators in the sugar shares is that
the end of control Of the sugar market
by the government is bound TO result
in greatly increased earnings for the
sugar companies. The Sugar Equaliza-
tion Board is understood TO have writ
ten to President Wilson expressing the
opinion that it is too late TO consider
a continuation Of sugar control through
next year. An official of the board has
estimated that the amount Of the new
sugar crop of Cuba that has been sold
is now near 100000 tons. most Of
which has been taken for foreign ac-
count. In view of this situation and
the heavy domestic requirements the
board has interposed no objection 20
