owners and operators of moving vans
are having somewhat simpler time of

difference is not so much in the num-
Der of families who are moving as it is
in the moro tranquil conditions under
which they are seeking new roofs.
This year there is no strike Of van
men. The annual van mems strike was
one Of the hardest perrenials in the
labor field. 1t was not permitted to
bud this year. as the Van Owners As
sociation and their employees came to
a peaceful agreement during the sum
mer. Under it the men consented to
withdraw from their unions and
reached new working basis through

Owners Association, said that, while it
was not heavy season, the work of
moving nevertheless had been heavy, as
it was coming within very short space
of time. Everybody in town, he said.
was trying to move in the ten days
before October L.
The chief reason for this Mr.. Morris
said, is lack of empty apartments. Peo-
pie who ordinarily would have made the
transfer early in the month, or even at
some other time of the year have been
compelled to wait until old tenants had
been able to move into their own new
apartments after waiting in their turn
until the old tenants had become new
tenants somewhere else.
Under present practices, with leases
dated October /, spring moving has
virtually ceased, Mr.. Morris said, and
the van owners are unwilling to main
tain over the entire year equipment
adequate to handle the October rush
without crowding The tendency now
is to reduce equipment and save on
insurance, licenses and the wages of
drivers and helpers.
Chaos is predicted for November l.,
1922, when present emergency rent laws
expire, unless foresight is exercised to
prevent such condition, At that time
ali of the present limitations as to
rents, leases, dispossess for non-pay-
ment and other regulations will be
removed. Lacking special provisions to
prevent, landlords and tenants, van
owners and warehouse men will be-

The rapid change OF the corporation
from position Of prosperity to it's
present predlcament in the course of
twelve months is related at length in
the letter of the president. At the end
CT the last fiscal year, September 80
1870, the corporation had more than
$40 100000 cash in the bank, no float
ing Indebtedness of any kind. and it had
sold 100000 bags of sugar of the com
ing CROP for delivery during January
May, 1921, at 121a cents a pound.
BY the time the grinding season
began, in January, 1921" the letter con-
tinues, conditions had changed in the
raw sugar business. and because of the
wild speculation in raw sugar dur
ing the last six months of 1920,
which brought to this country all
the spare stocks of the entire
world, considerable amount of
the last Cuban crop remained unsold
and the pressure to sell this brought
the price of raw sugar in the Cuban
market down to 21a cents per pound
in February, 1921. Thereupon the Cuban
Sugar Sales Commission was created
by decree of the Cuban government
and no sales OF sugar were thereafter
permitted except through this commits
sion, which, subject TO the recognition
of existing commitments, operated for
the pro rata accounts of all Cuban
producers.

Unable to Dispose Of Crop

This corporation was therefore IN
able to dispose of its crop in the usual
way, and out of its production of g.
100000 bags it has on hand to-day g.
100000 bags of sugar, of which 2,17O,000
are still unsold. The inability Of the
corporation to sell it's stock of sugar,
the expense of carrying the same, and
the fact that the cost of production
(the sugar having been made at time
when labor and other costs we're still
very high was in excess of the average
price realized therefor have all cor
tributed to drain severely the cash re-
sources of the corporation. In addition
the corporation had expended about So
100000 in additions and improvements,
prncl paly in connection with the plan
of development of its Eastern proper
ties, as outlined in the last annual re-
port; these expenditures were under
taken before the present difficult situa-
ton developed; since that time they
have been curtailed in every possible
way.
This corporation borrowed during
the early summer the sum of S18,-
100000 from the banks on its accept
ances against the pledge of its raw
sugar, of which more than $4,000, 900
has since been sold. In addition to this
loan the corporation has since been
obliged to borrow $4,000, 900, for which
it has pledged the equity in the pledged
sugar and certain other assets. The
value of the pledged sugars, even at the
present low price, is nearly sufficient
to hquidate both loans.
"In other words, if the corporation
sells the balance Of its unsold sugars
at even the present low prevailing
price, it can pay off almost all Of its
present Indebtedness to the banks. I'm
fortunately, however, the corporation
has been unable to sell all it's sugar
and now finds itself in 8 position where
in addition to the sums already Dor
rowed, it must borrow approximately
$4,000, 900 in preparation for the COM
ing crop. This money must be obtained
or the corporation cannot go on. This
money, it is estimated, will carry the
corporation to January 10, 1922, by
which time it's present stock of sugar
should be largely if not entirely sold
and at which time 1t should reasonably
expect to be able to finance any further
requirements by means of acceptances
drawn against the new crop, as had
been customary"
