FIRST. Statement, ns made at the hcarlnc that there have, been
or will be arriplc supplies of sunr available are not only wrotiB
and opposed to every fnct, but if believed nnd acted upon by the
American people, Incalculable harm lo the nation's ssar cfforlH ssijl
result.
Second. If American consumption is not curtailed nnd it becomes
necessary to withdraw ships from the transportation of troops and
supplies to obtain Jnva sugnr, it will mean 200,000 less American troops
in trance next year.
Third. Transportation concestion has resulted in insufficient sujrnr
supplies in many sections of the United Stntes, but has cumulated the
shortaRe in the northern and eastern states.
Kourth, The drain of the Allies on Cuban nnd American sugar
denuded the United States of n margin of about 300,000 tons necessary
to maintain normal consumption.
Fifth. Without legal posscr to fi. prices the food administration,
through voluntary agreements with sugar interests, saved the American
people from tssenty five-cent sugar during the shortage.
Sixth A committee of Knglish, French and Italian officials, Ameri
can rcflncrB nnd the food administration has been organized to handle
