WORLD'S SUGAR
OUTPUT DROPS
:
Production Down Fourteen
Per Cent., Compared
With 1913-14
London, Nov. 5.—A decline in the
world's sugar production of about It
per cent, as compared wih the ses
son 1913-14. was registered during
191S-19, according to figures issued by
the official Board of Trade Journal.
But for the increase in the Cuban out
put. from 2,600.000 tons in 1912-14
to an estimated 4.000,000 tone in 1918-
19 the decline would have been much
more serious, says the Journal.
The world's production of raw cane
sugar, excluding the Indian crop,
which is consumed locally, rose from
7.500,000 tons in 1913-14 to 9.700,000
tens in 1918-19, an increase of 2,200,-
000 tons. In the case of raw beet
sugar, however, production dropped
from 5,900,000 tons to 4.300.000 a de
crease of 4,500.000 tons. On balance,
therefore, there was a deficiency in
the world's supply of sugar in the
season just ended, compared with pre
war supplies, amounting to approxi
mately 2,400.000 tons.
