WORLD’S SUGAR CROP LARGEST EVER PRODUCED Total of 23,000,000 Tons Brings Prices As Low As Before World War. (Paris Times Spécial) WASHINGTON. — The greatest sugar crop ever gathered in the history of the world's sugar crop is the story the figures tell of the 1924-25 yield. The world crop, according to figures made available by Government and other agencies, was approximately 25,700,000 short tons of raw, or about 23,000,000 short tons of refined sugar during the year. Ease over the crop of the preceding year was the greatest in history, amounting to more than 3,000,000 short tons of raw sugar, or nearly 15 per cent. As a result of the huge yield throughout the world, and especially because of the big crop raised under the American flag; and in Cuba, the price

WORLD’S SUGAR CROP LARGEST EVER PRODUCED Total of 23,000,000 Tons Brings Prices As Low As Before World War.

The world crop, according to figures made available by Government and other agencies, was approximately 25,700,000 short tons of raw, or about 23,000,000 short tons of refined sugar during the year. Ease over the crop of the preceding year was the greatest in history, amounting to more than 3,000,000 short tons of raw sugar, or nearly 15 per cent. As a result of the huge yield throughout the world, and especially because of the big crop raised under the American flag; and in Cuba, the price of sugar has dropped to the lowest figure since before the war and bids fair to remain near this level for some time to come. "Before the War." The American public generally will continue for months to buy its sugar at low prices and housewives will find available the millions of pounds consumed annually for canning at prices lower than have prevailed for almost a decade. Here is the estimated world production in short tons: Europe, 7,832,000; The Far East, 7,118,720; Cuba, 4,735,000; South America, 1,397,760; Africa, 648,480; United States and possessions, 2,446,080; remaining North America, 1,515,720. In the United States and its island possessions, exclusive of the Philippines, the increase in the output over the preceding year amounted to about 239,000 short tons or 11 per cent. Virtually every pound of this sugar is consumed in the United States. Officials of the Department of Agriculture who have advocated a substantial tariff on sugar point to the latest figures of production as vindication of their claims. "If it were not for the American crop," one official declares, "we would today be perilously close to a world shortage of sugar, and prices, instead of being at their lowest for years, would

"If it were not for the American crop," one official declares, "we would today be perilously close to a world shortage of sugar, and prices, instead of being at their lowest for years, would be probably the highest since the war." Crop Analysis. Analysis of the American production of sugar dating the year discloses the following approximations in long tons of the various sources of supply: Beet sugar, 976,800; Louisiana, Texas and Florida cane sugar, 1,095,000; Hawaii, 602,050; Porto Rico, 503,150; Virgin Islands, 7,000; Total (long tons): 2,184,000. The figures show a reduction of 53,000 long tons in the estimated cane sugar yield from Louisiana, Texas and Florida, as compared with the production last year. This falling-off, amounting to almost 40 per cent, is attributed mainly to unusual weather conditions prevailing in that section. The Louisiana industry has been hard hit this year, Whatever the benefit to the consumer held by the present situation, producers have felt and are feeling the pinch of conditions and many have curtailed their dividends as a consequence. Wall Street Opening, — London and Paris Markets PARIS BOURSE Trading tendencies were unsatisfactory during the first part of the business day with which the Paris Bourse started the week.

Later in the session, heaviness and irregularity extended and increased French issues being especially easy. French Banks, Kuhlmann, Penarroya, Say Sugar, Pechiney and Gafsa were hard hit by the unloading activities of speculators. On the Curb, arbitrage values were strong but there were factories on the part of Hotchkiss, Tubize and Russeau Oils. The market in general was weak at the close.

The money, stock and commodity markets, according to the best view, are all three awaiting authoritative crop statements, which cannot be forthcoming for at least a month more. Much winter wheat acreage has had to be abandoned. Spring wheat is going in under favorable conditions. Corn and cotton made a bad start owing to the cold, late spring and drought, but the general crop outlook has greatly improved in the past two weeks, and apart from winter wheat, no harm has been done that cannot be repaired. Stocks are reflecting the disappointment at the failure in Steel, copper, coal and other industries, but show a definite sign that bottom has been reached with the slowing down at the beginning of the early spring. However, a large volume of domestic and foreign trade is preventing profit-taking; and short selling of stocks. There is increased trading in low-priced rails, in anticipation of a favorable decision in the pending hearings before the

There is increased trading in low-priced rails, in anticipation of a favorable decision in the pending hearings before the Interstate Commerce Commission on the proposed Nickel Plate merger. If the merger is approved, the largest railway consolidation movement in the history of the country will begin immediately. The hearings so far have been monopolized by the protesting minority of the Chesapeake and Ohio shareholders looking for more favorable terms.
