France produced all the sugar it needed, and had some to export. Italy supplied itself. The war abruptly shut off England's supply of sugar from Central Europe. The armies of Europe have overrun the beet fields of Northern France, Belgium, Poland and Russia. Today the battle lines encircle the vast sugar beet area of the Central Powers. About one-third of the world's former production is unavailable to the European Allies. The main sources of available sugar for the United States and the Allies are narrowed down to the West Indies (principally Cuba), Hawaii, the Philippines, Louisi ana, and the sugar-beet fields of the Middle West. Cuba has now increased its pro duction of sugar cane, but Eng land, France and other foreign countries perforce have increased their importations of sugar from Cuba. There is an abundance of sugar in far-away Java. It is as useless to the world as unmined gold, be cause no nation can spare the ships to carry it. This country and Europe could only procure sugar from Java by using ships badly needed to carry American troops and supplies to France. It takes 150 days for a cargo ship traveling at the rate of 200 miles a day to go from England to Java and return, counting in the loading and discharging at both ends. The same ship travel ing between New York and France takes 50 days for a round trip. Therefore the same ship can make three round trips between New York and France while it is making one round trip between England and Java. The competition among nations for Cuban raw sugar has forced up its price, with a necessary cor responding increase in the cost of refined sugar. This competition has now been overcome by the combined efforts of the United States Food Administration, the Allied Governments, and all ele ments of the sugar industry. In the midst of such abnormal conditions, this Company has done everything within its power, in co-operation with the Govern ment, to provide an even distribu tion of sugar to consumers at the lowest possible price. In constant effort to stabilize the price, we have even sold sugar at less than market prices for some time at a full cent a pound below the market.' Last February and March there were severe strikes in the re fineries of this and other com panies. But in the face of the new "problems thus created, we were able to deliver a normal amount of sugar every day. The supply of raw sugar in the early summer gave evidence of being enough for all needs. But the rate of consumption had increased. An extra 450,000,000 pounds were required to meet the needs of the people from June up to November. "You can't eat your cake and have it too." A part of this increased demand for sugar was due to the nation wide save the fruit crop .move ment. The sugar thus used is not gone. It is saved. It is simply in the fruit and jam Jar instead of the sugar bowl. I Sugar has sold in the United States throughout the war at an average price lower than in any other country. It is one of the cheapest foods the nation has. Admittedly one of the reasons for this brilliant showing, in view of changed world conditions, has been the fact that the domestic cane refining industry is in large units. It is a noteworthy tribute to the domestic refining industry which will be better appreciated the more the events of the last two years are studied. Franklin Package Sugars have been of great value in the wider and more even distribution of sugar. A barrel, holds 350 pounds of loose sugar, all of which usually goes to one grocer. It has been possible to ship practically the same amount of package sugar in three 120-pound cases to thre different grocers. The grocer has been able to handle these Franklin Cane Sugars already packaged iti cartons and. small cotton bags, thus tending to check hoarding. It will be necessary for grocers and consumers to watch carefully their distribution and purchases during the approaching period of readjustment. Housewives can co-operate with this plan by buying Franklin Pack age Sugars. The refineries are now starting up and supplies of raw sugar com ing forward, but it will take weeks, and possibly months, for the re turn of normal conditions. In war time and at all times it is our aim to safeguard tne interests of the public we serve.
