Sugar Supply To
Continue Short
Havana, Cuba — Sugar rations |
In the United States will continue |
at present levels for at least an
other year, Earl Wilson, director
of the Commodity Credit Cor
poration’s (CCC) sugar section,
said this week.
Wilson made the disclosure in
a press conference after a two
weeks’ inspection of drought
devastated Cuban sugar cane
fields. He was accompanied by
Harold Rowe of the Foreign Ec
onomic Administration (FEA).
Wilson said the CCC had made
an offer of 3.45 cents per pound
(f.o.b. Cuban ports) for the 1946
Cuban sugar crop, an increase of
.35 cents per pound over the
price paid for the 1945 crop.
Describing “severe damage” to
Cuban sugar production caused
by the prolonged drought, Wilson
said, “the sugar picture for the
United States is not good for an
other 12 months. The lack of
rainfall throughout producing
areas has delayed for at least a
year any increase in sugar rations
DR. PIERSON CALLED
TO ASTC FOR SUMMER
Boone — Dr. W. W. Pierson,
Dean of the University of North
Carolina Graduate School, was
called to Appalachian State
Teachers College this week by
reason of the large enrollment of
the Graduate School—more than
100% increase over the enroll
ment for 1944. After consulta
tion with Dr. Pierson, the college
secured the services of two as
sistants in this department, Miss
Louise Robles of the DuPont
School, Wilmington, Delaware,
and Professor Albert Buchholz of
Tampa, Fla.
While here Dean Pierson ad
dressed the student body at the
chapel period on the subject of
“Research in Higher Trends in
Higher Education”; the faculty
meeting on, “What is Research?”
for American consumers.”
He declined to predict whether
sugar rations might be further
cut but Said both domestic and in
dustrial consumers “will continue
under present tight rationing at
least until increased production is
assured.”

Attention,
Farmers
There was to be a plan by
which it would be possible to
ROTATE the test demonstration
farm program in Alleghany coun
ty. But, under the present “set
up,” Mr. Shoffner insists that the
same old crowd should get all
the “Hi-Test” phosphate as long
as it shows ANY IMPROVE
MENT.
It seems that the time is now
“past due” when the farmers
must organize and do something
about the present program, which
in Mecklenburg county was re
cently called “playing ball.”
This old crowd has been re
ceiving this special privilege
since the program started 1
years ago. There are only 58
members, with a 100 per cent
membership in the county com
missioners office who in turn ap
point the county agent from year
to year.
It is now suggested that a num
ber of petitions be circulated all
over the county and that the
farmers who h.»,e had nothing,
be given a chance to voice their
disapproval, by signing the peti
tion. We think that the “little
men” or “forgotten men” should
receive his share while the pro
gram is going on.
