Why You Are Not Paying 30 Cents for Sugar B b ] lal " " bl L) n u L i i 3 il 3] ] hml’flfieaflshfl Herbert C Hoover, then in London, which "apltn - which the “mmnihtemhmbd whale of i E i i L ¢ 4 (1P 3 fEsd 2 # E3E iks 3 B a,g. : 2 o g £ g United States supply but have maintained the lowest sugar prices in the world. Tihis brilliant record is due largely to the fact that suyar re- fiming is in the hands of Jarge business umits, with an excess of refining capacity sufficient to sup- ply all domestic needs, and so far all demands of foreign countries. In the spring of 1917 there was a serious attempt at the disor- mt;on of the sugar refining following a long series of attempts at destruction of sugar ships. Accompanying these incidents were widely circulated sensa- tional reports predicting a sugar famine and sugar shortage, caus- ing widespread apprehension. Atthattime, evenwith theassur- 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 mkefimg(‘,ompmymal'hy alarm, to check hoarding, o 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 mpr in far-away Java which Eum’yet the necessity for sav- became so great that Europe turned to Cuba for even hr(er 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 cnrcumnancex and seemingly to avoid paying M United St::es ;:n.r taxes sugar the European Alliel 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, Alled Nations to urge upon the sugar industry the 3 y agreed to the Hoover plan as a iotic act in the interest of the ican people and as an aid to the Allies. This is the significance of the appointment by the Usnited States Food Administration of the Inter- natiqn'al Sugar Committee to which the chlfi tives for England, France, and Canada, and to which the United States’' contributes three members. Upon the success of the opera. tion of the Internatiomal Sugar Committee under the directions of the Allied Governments, acting for practically half the civilized world, will depend the readjust- ment of the world’s sugar markets. ‘This plan is full of prmnise\(o all the nations party to the con. vention. 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 Mz:g‘t!us Company has l'g‘lm:c} ama. y unng the pin the fall months in gwm?g a wide distribution among the retailers of the reduced sugar supplies. While a barrekformerly was the unit of the grocer the same amount of sugar put up in cartons and small cotton bags can now be di- vided between two or grocers and so serve a larger number of people and prevent hoarding. It will be necessary for grocers and consumers to watch carefully approas period o nuliustment. The rei‘meties are m starting up and supplies of w coming forward, but it weeks, and possibly moutlu. for the retum of ‘nmnal 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. mmmg(’.ompmy ““Sweeten it with Domino’’ Granulated, Tablet, Powdered, Confectioners, Brown Project to Have Postoffice Moved Back to Town Hall—Demand For Better | Trolloy Service—Death of Edwin M.

Annual Meeting Held Tuesday—Re- ports of Successful Year. The annual meeting of the Putnam Foundry and Machine company was held at the offices of the concern at best known business men of Daniel- sen and has had previous experience in_serving on banking hoards. The officers of the bank are the same as last year. SMALL FIRE LOSS Year’s Total Will Be Under $500— Still, Department Needs Modern Ap- paratus. Danielson has come through another year with a remarkable record of free- dom from losses by fire. No town in Connecticut can show a_better record, the total losses here for the twelve months period being less than $500. The most serious loss of the year was one amounting to considerably less than $500, and was at the Palace laun- dry on Center street a few weeks ago. Qther trifling losses were caused through chimney fires and the like. That this good record may be main- tained, owners of property are urged to take particular precautions against damage by fire. Additional protection may be obtained by keeping cellars cleaned and preventing the accumula- tion of inflammable materials about properties. The cleaning of chimneys is also urged. . It is felt in some quarters that, not- withstanding the fine record of free- dom from fires that Danielson has had during the past few years, the fire department should be strengthened by the purchase of a motor-driven chem- ical, a piece of apparatus also equip- ped with a pump and able to carry 1,000 feet of hose. Danielson is grow- ing and some long runs are now lia- ble to be faced by firemen in getting to fires in the Industrial place section. It will occur at once to the minds of some that this property is not in the borough, but the fact is that,shounid a fire occur there, the borough depart- ment would extend its very best ef- forts to overcome the blaze, just as much as though the fire were on any streot within the borough, and this is as it should be for the big plant and the new properties about it mean a great deal to Danielson and should have the fullest protection. 0.
