France’s sugar crisis as German control bites
A wartime photo shows French sugar mills destroyed by German troops. France relies on a ration of about 18 pounds per person yearly, driving annual consumption to around 600000 tons. Before the war France averaged 750000 tons, with surplus for export.
Saving Sugar Saves Shipping
MERICAN families would have less sugar than the people of war torn France if we depended entirely on our home grown sugar stocks. Approximately 75 per cent of our sugar is shipped to our shores. We produce about 1,000,000 tons of sugar a year. Our imports from abroad amount to over 3,000,000 tons a year in normal times. The United States Food Administration asks each family to limit its use of sugar to two pounds per month per person for household use. The military situation de mands that every available ship be placed at the disposal of the Army or Navy. When we save sugar, we save shipping.
