Domestic: sugar -refiners, since the outbreak of the European War not only have safeguarded the United 'States supply : but -have maintained the lowest sugar prices in the world. . o i el This brilliant record is due largely to the fact that sugar re- fining is in the hands of large business units, with an excess of refining capacity sufficient to sup- ~ ply all domestic fieéds, and so far ‘demands of foreign countries, In the spring of 1917 there was a serious attempt at the disor- nization of “the sugar refining - industry, following a Iong series of attempts at destruction of sugar _ships. P Accompanying these incidents tional reports predicting a sugar famine and sugar shortage, caus- ing widespread apprehension. Atthattime, evenwith the assur- ance of ample supplies on hand, retail sugar prices rose-in some sections to 20 and 25 cents a pound. The efforts of the American ‘Sugar Refining Company to allay public alarm, to ‘check hoarding, to accept a price less than that which it could easily have “se- cured, and to distribute its prod- uct fairly and evenly among the trade, were of real public service. While there were great supplies of sugar in far-away Java which . ordinarily would have gone to E , yet the necessity for :;v; ships” becanie ‘§o great tha g" turned to Cuba for even larger supplies than previously. ‘It takes a cargo ship 150 days to make a round trip between Eng- land and Java, while a round trip between England and Cuba can be made in 50 days. Under these circumstances and seemingly to avoid paying proposed United States war taxes on refined sugar the European Allies purchased in Cuba the sugar which ordinarily would have come to the United States in the fall months. These conditions, and especial- ly the necessity of saving ships, Rorwes Gomaaren = = = = (7 Wmesmz Pae) : head the purchasing arket,. :iud l:l:ytin only‘ will. c%mpefitive bi b D- ve .on our side we can arrange the me rights of producers and consumua:"‘ led the United States and the M ‘:ifln:ustry mflm‘ %‘; ar. : ‘v“ta'u‘iitii“yl"a‘ir‘eéin‘cn't’“‘éif the inal:Hoover:plan, under the ority <of the Food: Control Act, ‘passed ‘August 10, 1917... .

This plan is full of promise to - all the nations party to:the con- It is an assurance that sugar, although - comparatively cheap in view of war conditions, will not by reason either of competitive or speculative - activity be in- creased in wholesale price. Sugar will become stabilized in price with sufficient profit to pro- ducers, refiners and merchants to maintain and stimulate produc- tion and to cover the cost of re- fining and of distribution. The marketing of Domino Cane Sugars in cartons and small cotton - bags by this Company has helped amazingly during the pinch of the fall months in giving a wide distribution among the retailers of the reduced sugar supplies. While a barrel formerly was the unitof the grocer the sameamount of sugar put up in cartons and small cotton bags can now be di- vided between two or more grocers and so serve a larger number of people and prevent hoarding. It will be necessary for grocers and consumers to watch carefully their distribution and purchases during the approaching period of readjustment. The refineries are now starting up and supplies of raw sugar coming forward, but it will take weeks, and possibly months, for the return of normal conditions. Housewives can aid in conserv- ing the sugar supply by buying these package sugars. In war time and at all times it is our aim to safeguard the interests of the public we serve. ““Sweeten ‘it with Domino’’ Granulated, Tablet, Powdered, Confectioners, Brown % ——— —————
