CANDY AND SUGAR

The sugar. shortage has placehcandy on trial
before the bar of public opinion Candy is accused
of being the thief that has robbed the national sugar
barrel
Candy is charged with having been responsible
for the sugar shortage.
Housewives say that the reason they cannot buy
all the sugar they need is because the candy manfac
turers use such large quantity that is left for
! household usage
What are the facts? What does the evidence
disclose?
The public is prone to arrive at quick conclusions
without. first carefully considering the facts.
II The public assumes that the candy manufac-
turers use an enormous amount OF sugar and that
most candy is made entirely from sugar.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
The facts are that while sugar is the chief basic
raw material used by candy manufacturers there are
many other kinds of raw materials used in large
quantities. such as chocolate moasses fruits, nuts
corn SYRUP starch and various other food products
Candy being composed Of these various kinds of
raw materials. is very high in food value.
The craving for. something sweet" is natures
call for carbohydrates, which supply fuel for the
human engine and which is most acceptaby supplied
in the form of candy.
The sugar shortage is, no doubt, due primarily
to increased household usage and not to increased
usage by candy manufacturers.
The candy industry occupies an important place
in industrial affairs and employs 100000 people.
Since prohibition went into effect it has become
essential food necessity but it is still cassed as
luxury and charged with special excise tax which
consumers must pay. But they paid such tax
when they bought BOOZE Why cannot they pay it
on candy.

THE SHAME OLA GREAT COUNTRY

''Never agairEnot another bond for me-"
That is approximately the expression you fire.
quently hear in this community from people who
holders of government bonds purchased during the
war.
While our men were in France fighting to make
the world safe for democracy and to retain
try under its sovereignty the people asked
to buy government bonds. They urged to
buy clear up to the limit
Campaigns and drives were conducted to induce
the public to dsgorge its savings and deposit them in
the public hopper Even the fighting men themselves
were given rest until they had subscribed their
quota.
Americans of every class responded nobly, hum
dreds Of thousands denying themselves in their
patriotic endeavors to aid in the prosecution Of the
Our own community contributed literally, as
did every other section of the country.
The public was allowed to believe that their
bonds would be the safest kind of an investment al
ways at par and possibly soon at premium.
They bought and kept on buying-because they
loved their country and had faith in Uncle Sam
But now they are disillusioned- -distressingly so.
They find that their bonds not above par
that they not at par but have shrunk in value to
considerably below par.
They receive low rate of interest, and can not
dispose of single bond without a financial sacrifice
The public in general is not saying much, but it
is doing lot of hard thinking. 1t is and dis
gusted and does not disguise the fact. There are
even intmations that some day the government will
WdHC 10 Sell more anu VIII nave
time in finding purchasers The public will not care
to be singed twice in the place.
There is, however, remedy-if congress will
apply it.
Let these bonds be placed by law on the same
basis as our national currency-at par value-with
the interest retained Then let it be made criminal
offense for any person corporation to refuse to
accept bond at par value plus the interest that has
accrued to date Or in lieu OF this let the interest on
these bonds be raised by act of congress to six per
cent thus placing the bonds on par with real estate
mortgages and other investments
If citizen uses the mails to misrepresent bond
or block of stock that he is endeavorng to sell he
violates the law and the government sends him to JAIL
The government should live up to the same stand
ard of honor it requires from it's citizens by restor-
ing these bonds to par value by act of congress.

LABOR EFFICIENCY DECLINES IN SOUTH

The Southern Pine Association reports that in
July, 1914 it required 1913 man hours to produce
1000 feet of lumber whereas in JULY 1919, the pro-
duction of 1000 feet of lumber required 37.5 man
hours. The labor cost increased from S6Ol per
thousand feet $3.50 per thousand feet 125 per
cent. In July, 1914, the mills reported it necessary
to keep on the payroll 134 men in order to maintain
full crew of 100 working each day, while in July,
1919 the mills found necessary to keep the pay
rolls 153 men in order to insure continuous Of
100.
The south is still suffering from extreme labor
shortage 1t caused nearly 20 per cent of the cotton
crop go unpicked during the fall There is at pre-
sent labor shortage of about 20 per cent but still
greater factor causing reduced production is labors
inefficiency.

would be found necessary to raise the
limit to $1,000 or more. ''It all depends
upon how the great mass of the party
responds to the call" He said Mr.. Hays
would frankly tell the whole country how
the party's finances stand at the beginning
of October, whether it is necessary to in
crease the limit and why.
The speaker read the figures showing
the present status of the G. Q. T. treasury,
and declared that Cox's charges had
proved themselves to be ridiculous.
MIR. Wilson's talk dealt with various
phases of the campaign, including the
discussion of the peace treaty, and de-
Tended the party's actions on that matter,
and said the Democratic position was an
abandonment of the Monroe doctrine. He
predicted victory for the Republicans in
the Maine election, and said all New
England would go Republican by large
malorlties
