' The situation which the United ' States faces in Its efforts to maintain i a fair distribution of sugar to the A1-. lieu wunu la as ivu?wg; Sugar supplies throughout the coun try, in Homes, stores, factories and bakeries are at a low ebb. We must . make increased sugar shipments to the Allies. Production of American beet and ) Louisiana cane crops have been disap3 pointing. Porto Rico crops have been curtailed. > Immense sugar stocks In Java canl not be reached on account of the shipping shortage; ships are needed for troop movements and munitions. > Army and Navy sugar requirements . have Increased as well as those from the Allies. Most industries using sugar have had ' their allotment reduced by one-half; some will receive no sugar. I Households should make every efI fort to preserve the fruit crop without sugar, or with small amounts of sugar. Later, when the sugar supply is larg er, the canned fruit may be sweetened : | as it is used. ' Campbell spent Thursday in Abbe! ville.
