the acre than any previously known
variety; and is at the same time re-
sistant to cane diseases, is of impor-
tance to everyone in the United States.
We consume several times as much
sugar as any other nation in the
world. Our sugar producers have had
difficulty in competing with foreign
sources. The sugar industry in Louis-
iana was practically wiped out a few
years ago, by plant diseases; the Miss-
issippi flood of 1928 almost finished
the job. But the introduction of a
new type of sugar cane from Java,
known as “P. O..J. 213,” has reju-
venated the Louisana sugar industry,
which is now producing five times as
much sugar as in 1926.
The new cane developed in Florida,
called “C. P. 807” yields a ton more
sugar to the acre of cane than does
“P. O. J. 213” That should mean,
eventually, both a reduction in cost
of sugar to the consumer and better
profits to the grower

FRAUD
A Florida man shipped a carload |
of oranges to a produce dealer “in |
Virginia. The dealer sent the shipper
a check for $250. The Florida mar
invoked the recently-enacted Federa
Produce Agency Law and haled the
dealer into the Federal court. The
yroceedings disclosed the -fact that the
net proceeds of the sale of the oranges
was nearer $700 than $250. The court
ordered the dealer to pay the shipper
an additional $463, with interest, and
to pay it before November 4 or go tc
jail.
It looks as if there is at last a way
in which shippers of farm products
san get the money due them. State
and
local laws don’t protect them;
operate in favor of the local
er and. against the shipper from
another state. The Federal courts are
not subject to local influences, and the
new law seems to have teeth in it,

EDUCATION
~ We spend more money for educa-
tion than for anything else, but there
are still hundreds of thousands, if not
millions, of American grown-ups wha
.have never learned to read or write.
The death the other day of Thomas
Young, whose occupation was that
of “public writer,” in a good-sized
town close to New York city, revealed
the fact that hundreds of persons ii
White Plains who could not writa
were: in the habit of going to him to
write their letters for them.
In New York State alone, by the
Census of 1920, there were 425,000
persons over 10 years old who could
neither read nor write, and all but
10,000 of those were over 21. Nor
were they all foreigners; more than
30,000 were native-born whites. The
number is probably smaller now; the
1930 Census figures on illiteracy are
not yet available. But there were more
than three million white folks over
ten years old, and nearly two million
negroes, who could not read in any
language, in 1920, and the probability
is that there are still three or four
million illiterate citizens.
