WASHINGTON President Wilson
has decided not to exercise powers
conferred in the McNary sugar con-
troll bill authorizing purchase and dis
tribution of the Cuban sugar crop,
according to statement issued re-
Gently at the White House.
The statement said the president
had made his decision on the basis
Of facts presented for his considera,
ton and the recommendation of the
sugar equalization board.
The declaration is made that ap-
parently the available sugar supply
is sufficient for American needs
"even on the present unnecessarily
large basis of consumption" and no
tice is given that the power of price
control through the licensing system
authorized by the bill, will be in

which normally only 100000 tons
are domestic production. AS the Gu
ban crop is unusually large at 4,SO0,
600 tons, of which the allies, however
because of limited purchasing power
will take about 1,250,000 tons, and
as the estimated Louisiana western
beet, Hawaiian and Porto Rican pro
duction will reach 100000 tons, the
statement foresees a sufficient sup
ply for American needs.
The American per capita consump
ton of sugar, the statement said, hat
risen from pounds in 1866 to al
average of So pounds during the 1914
1918 period and to 92 pounds fol
1919.
