waymen's delegates to decide on their
course of action, the cabinet met and
recommended that the managers of
the railroads be asked to grant the de
mands of the employees, and in the
event of failure on the part or the
railroads to prevent a strike, the gov
ernment would take action.
The strike follows the demands of
the railwaymen for increased wages
land better working conditions. A prop
osition has been before the chamber
for some time to allow the roads TO
increase their rates, thus permitting
| them TO grant the demands of The men.
No action has thus far been taken by
the chamber, however, which has al
: ready refused to allow an increase N

SYRUP INDUSTRY
HAS BIG FUTURE
Department of Agricul ur e
Urges Floridians to Investi-
gate Its Opportunities

Washington, March 23.-The cane
syrup industry of the southern states
offers a big opportunity for growers
of cane and manufacturers of syrup
and sugar to make good, in the opinion
of experts in the United States depart
ment of agriculture. But they say that
in order to take advantage of the op-
portunity to the fullest extent it is
necessary that selected varieties of
cane be green and that approved
methods of manufacture be carried
out. These considerations. 1T IS de-
clared, will make it possible to grade
and standardiZe the product properly
and that in turn, especially Il sup
plemented by advertising, will enable
the syrup makers to establish wide
market for it.
The production of cane is increasing
rapidly throughout the south, but the
demand for sugar and sweets has never
been greater. and the cane growers and
syrup manufacturers can meet the re-
ouirements of the situation by exer-
cising good judgment, according to
men like Dr. l.. G. Corbett, of the bu-
reau of plant industry, department OF
agriculture, who has made a long Study
of problems related to production and
| distribution of farm products. Special
| ization is the star to which the south
ern cane industry must hitch its
wagon, they say.
! Get good varieties of cane" say:
/ DIR. .Corbett. Work oat methods o.
producing syrup so that the produc
of small areas of cane well as o
tlarge areas can be handled uniforml!
and scientifically. Capitalization is de
sirable in order to obtain a STANDARD
product and methods should be de
veloped to this end"
] While there are some established
brands of cane syrup of STANDARD
quality and delicious flavor, DIR. Cor
bett points out, there are large guam
titles of syrup put on the market with
out much regard to grading or uni
| formity 1t is. therefore, sometimes
difficult for the consumer to tell jus
what he is getting.
| The department of agriculture ex-
perts say that the syrup manufacture
| can get a product of a certain grade
icbaracter and color from small oper'
alton as well as from a large opera
tion. They say that not only is name
or brand necessary, but that syruT
| should be marketed with an eye K
uniformity or Standardization of color
as we'll as with regard to Its sugar
content The department suggests ina
the product be reduced to three or -four
different grades depending upon these
considerations The department /:
