Sugar Hoarding Unprecedented Amid 1917 Shortage Fear
Der Washington telegraph reports testimony by Hal J. Babst, president of American Sugar Refining, on the 1917 sugar shortage. He cites unprecedented consumer hoarding, rising prices, and supply disruptions from Cuban cane fields and docks, noting refiners held back price increases to aid the Food Administration. He criticizes the idea that Cuban raw sugar could have been imported freely, calling it camouflage for shortages and stating Americans consumed 400,000 tons more sugar in 1917 than the previous year.
