HAVANA, Feb. f3.-Unless President
Menocal succeeds In controlling the

tanning sugar in the United States may
be only fOrerunners of o genuine
famine. An exile colony Of depofted
| laborers on the Isle Of Pines is one OF
! the desperate measures threatened by
! the government.
This is tn height Of the cane-cutting
season. II is reported that most cf the
mills are running full force, despite
serious trouble among sugar-workers,
dock-workers and railway employees.
1t was to conserve the 1920 sugar
output that the president declared mar
tial law in Cuba.
Search is being made for firearms
held by members Of the laboring classes
and a work or get out" order has been
passed, under President Menocals tenn
porary revocation of constitutional
rights.

II is estimated that the harbor strike
is costing Cuba a million dollars a
week Despite the large number OF
convicts employed on the water front,
many ships are lying at anchor waiting
to discharge carg0es; many have turned
back without unloading and perishable
cargoes have been dumped into the sea.
The 1919 total cane and beet sugar
crops or the world amounted to 49,

But sugar costs just as much in

local price.
(And. although vast wealth has flowed /

war period, the cane producers and the
workers are loudly insisting that none /
