SUGAR IMPORTS ABOVE
THOSE OF LAST YEAR
Three Chief Atlantic Ports Have Re-
ceived 385, 344,950 Pounds More
Than to Same Date in 1919.

NEW YORK, April S.-Persistent stor-
les are III circulation among sugar retail
ers, and passed on to consumers, that
there is another shortage of sugar IN sight
and that prices will be higher soon. The
only evidence to support this is that sales
of raw sugar in Cuba and Porto Rico. for
immediate shipment, have been made re-
Gently at higher prices, and that exports
of refined sugar to Europe have been
quite large.
Against this is the fact that importa-
tons of sugar from Cuba to the United
States have been much larger than last
year, are above the immediate capacity OF
the refneries, and there are large accum-
ulations awaiting shipment at Cuban ports.
The receipts at the three ports, Boston,
PHILADELPHIA and New York, this year to
March % We're 1,547 800, 100 pounds
against l230,622 800 pounds last year to
March %. The receipts for the three
ports from all sources for the same dates
are SOS, 359, 800 pounds against ,483,0l4,-
400 pounds last year, according to hgures
given by the American Sugar Bulletin.
There is no change IN the wholesale
prices of refined sugar, which is 1872
cents net, and no difficulty in furnishing
supplies to retailers except such dlttlcul-
ties as pertain to transportation troubles.
