In the interest of the public it serves . tli.ej.:f
American Sugar Refining Company is tearacatJJ
supporting the Government's policy to regulafeSl;
the supply ot sugar so that it shall be sufficient
for the needs of all our soldiers our Allies
and ourselves.
1 . r "
With the new crop of cane sugar coming in the sugar
situation is more favorable than it was a month ago. There
will be sugar enough according to present indications if ex-
travagant use and waste are avoided.
War has disturbed the
whole world's sugar supply.
It has not only wiped out any
available surplus but it has
put all nations on a hand-to-mouth
basis.
The European Allies were
the first to feel the pinch.
Before the war enough sugar
was produced on the Con-
tinent to supply all Europe.
Today two-thirds of this
sugar-producing area is with-
in the battle lines.
England. France and other
nations have had to turn
elsewhere for a supply of this
indispensable food.
And they came to Cuba
the main source upon which
the United States depends for
its cane sugar. During 1917
Cuba sold and shipped to
Europe nearly 1000000 tons
of raw sugar one-third of its
crop.
In addition to the normal
increase in the consumption
of sugar as food in this coun-
try the nation-wide move-
ment to save the fruit crop
last season greatly increased
its use.
But this increased con-
sumption of sugar has been a
real factor in combating
waste. It enabled the Ameri-
can housewife to add to the
store of the food of the na-
tion at a time when fruits
and vegetables were plenti-
ful and cheap.
The sugar is not only in the
fruit jar but it has carried
into the pantries of the coun-
try a vast supply of fruit and
vegetables which would
otherwise have been lost.
Sugar itself is not only a food
but it is also the great pre-
server of other foods.
As the demand for sugar
grew both here and abroad
Cuba's supply was exhausted
last fall. Every available
ton in Porto Rico and other
cane sugar countries was ac-
quired. But this was not
enough and the shortage
came.
At the same time an abun-
dance of sugar was and still
is locked up in far-away Java .
as unavailable as unmined
gold because ships cannot be .
spared to transport it
Every 5000-ton ship which
can be saved by giving
England sugar from Cuba
means the release of . a ship
which can make three trips
and take a total of 3000 sol-
diers from the United States
to France.
If we can save the Allies
from taking any Java sugar
in 1918 we will release for
transport purposes enough
ships to carry over to the
Western front and supply
about 150000 to 200000
soldiers.
At the same time we will
also be giving the Allies the
necessary sugar. Therefore
it is (o the interest of the
common cause to save ships
and send soldiers.
The American Sugar Re
fining Company has put forth pj
every possible effort to keep
up the supply of sugar for the
United States even in limited
quantities and to stabilize
the price to the consumer.
In order to. enable the widest
possible distribution of sugar
so that all may have some
sugar we distribute Domino
Cane Sugars in convenient
size packages.
These small -unit cartons
and cotton bags enable gro-
cers to limit their sales so that
waste and hoarding may be
prevented.

watch carefully their distri-

the approaching period of re-
adjustment The refineries
are now starting up and sup-
plies of raw sugar coming for-
ward but it will take weeks
and possibly months for the
return of normal conditions.
Housewives can cooperate
with this plan 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.
