One of the highlights of their day’s angling was hooking into a big fellow, who was so big that he reel- ed off yard after yard of line no matter how much brake the mate put on the reel. He finally got near the end of the line and broke it. Line is 70-pound test and usually holds much more when the party is playing the fish.

SUGAR CONSUMERS (Continued from Page One) independence. from the United States. Governmental and other reports indicate that a much happier state of affairs existed prior to the time that all the good land was devoted to suger pro- duction because of duty free ac- cess to the United States mar- ket: The Philippine Islands were acquired at the same time as Puerto Rico. The Filipinos in- sisted upon their independence from the United States and in compliance with such demand full independence will be ac- corded them on July 4, 1946. At the time the Islands were freed from Spain sugar production was less than 100,000 tons per year After they obtained unrestricted and free access to the American market Philippine production in- creased by leaps and bounds, to a peak of 1,400,000 tons, mostly at the expense of Cuba. When asked to comment on the situation relative to these three sugar producing areas, Clarence R. Bitting, president of United States Sugar Corporation, oper- ating cane-sugar plantations in the Everglades of Florida, stated: “Hawaii is the only offshore area entitled to treatment anywhere near equal to that accorded sov- ereign states of the union. I ac- cord Hawaii this treatment not only because of its status as an incorporated territory but, even more important in my _ opinion, because in Hawaii the laborer is accorded fair treatment and re- ceives wages comparable to those paid on the mainland. Puerto Rico’s problems are most serious; it has been suggested by some Puerto Ricans that Puerto Rico should reduce her sugar produc- tion so she can. produce more of her own needs and thus return to a greater degree of self-suffi- ciency as was had in the past when her people were not as poverty stricken as governmental and other reports disclose to be today’s condition. The Filipinos have asked for and received their independence and thus there is no need for the United States to continue the pampering of the past. Certainly sugar control such as has recently been experi- enced, created largely for the , protection of these offshore areas nard Waite reported today.
