Great Britain and the United States got their sugar in the gooil ohi days of peace. Our three countries take praetieally all the ex- portable sugar from these major sugar -exporting areas. But supplies have either been out off by enemy oeeu- pation of^the country â€" as in the case of Java and the Philippines, or their protluotiou radically reduced by shortao^e of workers, as in the case of Hawaii. Porto Rico, Austraha. Trinidad. Fiji. CONSUMES HAS TO BE IMPORTED Even tile production of beet sugar in Canada and the Uniteil States has been drastically cut by labour shortage. In both countries the *1.3 sugar beet crop was forty per cent less than in "H. The only country to show an important increase is Cuba, where output had for years been deliberately restricted. But its increase has not been suflicient to offfct the losses elsewhere â€" let alone meet the increased demand. The war has bro\i"ht s«ime unusual demamls on the Uiiiti-tl Nations' sujjar pool. Vast quantities have been taken f«>r making industrial alcohol used in the nianufaotxire of synthetic rubber (tires, etc.) as well as T.N.T. and smokeless p«wd«r. For instauee, the explosive to fill five 16.inch shells requires as much sugar as THE SUPPLY IS SHARED All sogar soppliM ar« pooled and under the control of the Combined Fooii Board of the Lnite<i Natious, which allots 8upulie« to Canada, Unite<i States and Great Britain on a uniform basis. IBANK ^'^'^S-i ROLLING ON SUGAR is pnxlueed on an acre of the finest sugar land. Thi« year Cuban su-iar aloue useil fi>r niakins industrial aleobol will equal Canada s norma] sugar imports fqr more than two years. DO WE NEED MORE SUGAR? A century ago the whole world <lidn't consume as much sugar as Canada diw« today. Our sweet tooth has been acquired in quite recent times. Sugar rates high for its energy valuCi but starchy foo«l is a go<Ml sidjstitute. WE'RE LIVING ON OUR SUGAR CAPITAL into "reserve." LibiTated nations will have to dip in too. Extra go<xl erops could impn>ve the situation, but greatly increased supplies are not in sight. If current consumption keeps op, we could be very short of sugar next year. We must do the utmost to cooserre our supplies. At the time of "Pearl Harbour" the United Nations had a reserve stock -pile of about 3 millioa tons, but for the last 3 years wcVe been using more than has been pr«duced â€" and dipping heavily IATI0NIN6 WAS STARTED lECAUSE OF SHORTAGE OF SHIPS.
