NEW PROCESS FOUND FOR MAKING SUGAR
A new method to produce crystalline maltose sugar from corn starch or related starches has been developed by H C Gore, a Department of Agriculture chemist. Officials say production costs could match cane sugar, though industrialization is not yet achieved and impact on corn use is uncertain. The process mashs starch with malt, liquefies, converts to maltose in seven to ten days, then decolorizes, evaporates, and crystallizes to yield the sugar.

Democrats frame the plan as nonpolitical and not a cure for world ills, opposing Republican calls for a league-free world court. They deem a European-supported court contingent on rewriting the League covenant and Versailles treaty. Senator King has proposed a variant aligned with Coolidge.
