restriction would. remain. No official
announcement, however, has been made
1t is understood that the government
considers curtailment of crops, restric-
ton of grinding and unified marketing
of raw sugar as essential to the well
fare of the industry, as we'll as provid-
ing evidence to the American beet
sugar growers that Cuba does not seek
