Caribbean Sugar Output
To Be Boosted Sharply
~ tie Associated Press.

BY tLC hoooSiateo &teSo.
Secretary of Interior 1ckes re-
ported today the United States pos
sessions in the Caribbean can and
will increase their sugar production
in significant quantities during
1912"
The Secretary, who has jurisdic-
ton over the Division Of Territories
and Island Possessions. said Puerto
Rico shipped to the United States
last year 994,837 tons Of sugar,
meeting fully its initial 194l quota
allotment and sending to the States
almost 100000 additional tons ito
meet the developing shortage"
The report estimated Puerto Rico
this year would produce approx
imately 100000 tons. The quota
set for Puerto Rico for 1912 at the
present time Is 959,088.
1ckes said the increased output
can be amplif1ed further in succeed
ing years to an estimated capacity
production of 100000 tons, if all
restrictions were removed"
Even the Virgin Islands, where
sugar production is negligible COM
pared to the total normal United
States consumption, will treble its
output schedule this year, Ickes
said. He estimated these islands
would export approximately 5000
tons to the mainland this year.
Total United States sugar con-
sumption amounts to approximately
1000, 900 tons a year.
He plans to ask President RooSe-
welt, Ickes said, to lift all quota
restrictions on importation Of sugar
from Puerto Rico.
