New Theories Advanced
During Senate Search
For Shortage Of Sugar

Washington, Oct. 13.-The Sen
ate has advanced n step in its search
for the causes of the sugar shortage.
1t discovered several new theories
The most important were:
First That Newton D. Baker, sec
retary of war, sold 22,0OO,OOO pounds
of sugar to France as part of the
general bargain sale" of food and
clothing valued at S1,4OO, 100000,
for which France paid $400, 900.
Mr.. Baker did not desire to disturb
the domestic market in the United
States, but his altruism did not en-
brace the merchants of France.
Second, Senator Pomerene. of
Ohio, obtained from the United
States sugar equalization board a
statement to the effect that the
shortage is due to an 'inordinate
consumption" by the American peo-
pie, the consumption up to October
1 having amounted to 3,263,O00 long
tons, an increase of 602, 900 long
tons, compared with the correspond
ing period of 1918. Senator Reed
Smoot. Republican, Utah, cast fur
ther gloom on the Senate by an
nouncing, on the word of a promi-
nent sugar dealer, that the Ameri-
can market would be deprived Of
the entire Hawaiian sugar crop of
this year, through the enterprise of
Japan, which has contracted for the
full crop, about 100000 tons, one
of the largest in the history of the
islands. Senator Smoot added that
the domestic shortage would con-
tinue until the crop of 1921 is manu-
factured.

This was when the searchers
