DOUBT FURTHER
DROP in SUGAR
Wholesale Dealers Here De-
clare They Are Losing
Money Already
LOOK FOR ADVANCE
WITHIN FEW WEEKS

Further decline in price OF sugar
in Wilmington Is doubted by whole
sale dealers, In spite Of announcement
by New York sugar refncrs OF cuts
In price TO II cents Local dealers
believe the present low price Of from
10 10 20 oents retail Is only temporary
and will be again raised within a few
weeks.
William B. Megear, whole sale
grocer, Fifth and French streets de-
clares one reason why prices have
dropped Is that many persons who
have been frantlcally buying sugar
for future use are now convinced that
sugar soon will be plentiful, and are
using up the supplies they have ac-
cumulated. As a result there Is little
demand for sugar at present,
The estimate Of sugar stocks Is
sued by the Department OF Agrlcul-
ture, says Mr.. Megear, include a lot
OF foreign sugar which the average
American would not want on his
table. He also believes large quantl-
ties OF sugar are In the hands OF
speculators and private hoarders,
I'VE are not selling as much sugar
IN a week as we normally would in
| a udys says MI McBedf, As prices
are dependent upon supply and de-
mand we are losing from $40 TO S2s
on every barrel Of sugar at our pres
ent price OF 10 and 20 cents a pound
on every hundred barrels we lose
from $500 to $1,000, | could name
a half-dOzen Philadelphia grocers who
have lost from $4,000 to 100000 in
the last two weeks. All the sugar
we have has cost 22h cents a pound
wholesale When we sell IL at ~
and 20 cents we lose the difference
We cannot very well drop It any
/ lower.
William d. Skellenger. president OF
the Retailer Growers Exchange also
says the wholesaler is selling at a
heavy loss already and he does not
think there will be any further droI
In the price In the near future.

that would want put cancellation OF the debt entirely
business basis aside from any sentiment, philan-
ihropy. or charity"
Nevertheless his whole argument rests on his propos
ton that Europes loss is far greater than ours, that
her man-power depleted TO much greater extent and
that we did not fun part and should now make
amends by way Of the debt cancellation.
Mr. Wade is somewhat prominent in financial circles
and although Democrat his views may be given more
attention than they deserve
He estimates Europe's war debt in actual cost and
loss OF future manpower at s3550O0OOOOOO and own
debt the basis at s3i OOOOoOOOO He then makes
this comparison;
to show for it-no gain whatever. The United States
paid of practically all It's European obligations during
the war by purchase OF securities owned in Europe es
mated to aggregate than sOOOOOOOo and increased
It's wealth all that the cost"
Mr. wades first fundamental is in including the
losses Of Germany and the rest OF the Central Powers in
the European total and comparing the result with the
United States.
In considering the question OF international indebted
ness Germany should be omitted
We her nothing. and she owes us nothing. Terri
ora losses and reparaon demands that have been in
nicted on her have and Will to the allies
The United States gets none Of IT,
Our dealings with regard TO our war loans should be
with England France and Italy, which countries owe us
/
While Mr.. Wade may be correct In his figures, II Is
peposterous 10 State that those three countries can show
mo gain whatever to compensate them for their losses
England for instance got practically all Of Germanyt
African colonies containing vast natural prac
tcally untouchcd She received rich on concessions II
various parts OF he world chiefly in Mesopotamia And
most important Of all Germany eliminated trad

The New York Sun estimates that her accretlon fl
national wealth be conservatvey placed at 100000

France likewise, emerged from tho war with mmens
additions 10 her national wealth Asace and Lorraln
were restored her The coal deposits Of the Saar AM
Ruhr Valleys were made available. The constant German
menace which the past had made such demand
upon her resources reduced Some valuable Afrca

three billions
Italy also got large pieces OF territory, will receive
big indemnity, and has her ancient enemy Austria
practically destroyed.
As against what those countries have received IN
United States got not a cent The cost Of The war 10
is loss which the people must pay Mr. Wade will hav
