Force of circumstances compelled the Miner to miss one issue, which would have borne the date Dec, 26.

CANADA SUGAR PRICES MUCH
LOWER THAN IN UNITED STATES

At Windsor. Canada, just across
the river from Detroit, sugar sells for
10 cents, or 22 cents less than it does
in Detroit Consequently smugglers
are trying to buy all the available sup
ply in Western Ontario and get it
across the border. If the sugar
shortage" in the United States was
more real than speculative, the Cana
dian supply would be proportionately
short. That sugar is 10 cents a
pound in Canada and 32 cents A
pound just over the line in the
United States is reasonable proof
that the alleged sugar shortage is
mostly fiction, an artificial shortage
due to manipulation in order to hold
up the people Of the United States
for % cents on every pound. II
amounts to the most colossal robbery
in the history Of the world.--Capper's
