In the Sugar Market
.(By Thomson g. McKinnon)

and absence of developments in the sugar
market has DISCOURAGED traders. There
fore, whenever selling for special reasons
takes place it is joined by many dis
gruntled longs and because of this, con-
ditidns look worse than they really are.
Fundamentals, while far from perfect,
point in our estimation toward the con-
structive.
