Of course, two products derived from com now receiving
considerable attention are high fructose sugar and alcohol
for fuel We have seen continued expansion of these two
industries in the past two to three years and, no doubt, will
continue to see expansion in the future. Fuel alcohol
production has been projected at one to four billion gallons
per year by 1990 That will require from 450 million to 1 6

now used in soft drinks and as dietary sweeteners and will,
no doubt, see more uses develop.

on more industries than most of them, or others, know
