Sugar Supply Critically Short Says Price Office Director
Theodore S. Johnson, Raleigh Price Administration district director, called the civilian sugar supply situation sour. He said eastern North Carolina boards face many requests for more canning sugar but the home canning allowance cannot be increased due to limited supply. Refineries run 24 hours but are six to eight weeks behind due to manpower shortages. Johnson urged conservation and use of regular allotments to can the bumper fruit crop.
