MAN-POWER BILL READY
Youncjest Drafteei to Be Ca':ed Last,
Says Chamberlain.
Washington. Aug. 14. Passage of
the man-power bill was predicted by
Senator Chamberlain In a statement
after the committee had decided to
report the bill favorably.
"The secretary of war and chief of
staff and General Crowder as well
have appeared before the committee
on this bill and have shown to the
committee's satisfaction that Its en
actment is absolutely essential to the
maintenance of an adequate army in
France," he said.
"Under the bill's terms the presi
dent will have power to classify the
selected and, while I have no author
ity to indicate what he will do, I am
Inclined to the opinion that classes
will be arranged so as to call the
youngest last, so men of that class
will have at least six month? or a
year to remain in the United States
and possibly longer, depending upon
the emergency."
FRANCE AND BELGIUM
GET AMERICAN SUGAR
Ninety-five per cent of all refined
sugar sent from the United States to
the Allied nations went to France and
p.elgium during the first five months
of this year.
France got 72 per cent., or nearly
33,000.000 pounds, and Belgium receiv
ed neitrty 11,000,000 pounds, or 23 per
cent.
In esch country this sugnr was doled
H by a strict rationing organization.
The entire amount to the Allies In
these five months 23,791 tons, almost
hulf of which was shipped In May is
only ubout one-half of 1 per cent of
our total annual consumption.

Warburg Opposes Making War Bonds
Legal Tender.
Washington, Aug. 12. Proposals
to enact legislation making liberty
bonds legal tender for a period of
from two to five years after the war
was declared "impracticable and un
scientific" as well as dangerous by
Paul Jl. Warburg, the retiring vice
governor of the federal reserve
board, In a letter received by Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, who asked
his opinion on the subject. "Such
a measure would be destructive of
the credit of the United States," said
.Mr. Warburg, "and at the same time
to our currency system. It would prob
ably result in a very serious financial
disturbance."
Fall Provea Fatal.

Washington, Aug. 13. Alany cases
of gross extravagance and apparent
careless expenditures In connection
with airplane production have been
discovered during the Investigation
by the department of Justice, It was
learned after the roturn of Attorney
Oeneral Gregory and Assistant Attor
ney General Fryerson from a two
weeks' Inquiry at the Curtis plant at
Buffalo.
Until the evidence gathered has
been further analyzed, It is not cer
tain whether grounds exist for crimi
nal prosecutions, it was said. Officials
take into consideration, it was ex
plained, that the necessity for speed
in producing airplanes and of a cer
tain amount of experimentation may
have justified some extravagances.
Charles E. Hughes, who Is conduct
ing the inquiry with the attorney gen
eral, returned to Washington today,
and hearings here will be resumed.
It is understood a number of army
officers and other connected with car
rying out the airplane production pro
gram will be called this week.

WORLD SHORTAGE
IN BEET SUGAR
Crops Are 40 Per Cent. Less
Than Pre-War Average Cen
tral Powers Hit Hardest.
CANE SUGAR IS ISOLATED.
Allied Beet Production Falls One-third
In Rigid War Economy
Practiced.
The world today Is producing fort
per cent less beet sugar than the pre
war average.
Counting the American, Allied and
German-Austrian crops, as well as the
neutrals, the U. S. Food Adralnistra
tion has estimated that the world
shortage created by the light crop of
1917-1918 Is at least three and a half
million tons.
That the 1917-1918 crop of cane sug
ar was two million tons In excess of
the previous year does not relieve the
general shortage.
Cuba and Java produce one-half of
the world cane crop, and the Java sug'
ar Is too far removed from America to
transport when shipping is badly need
ed to transport and maintain the mill
tary forces In France.
In Java a large part of the old sugar
crop Is still awaiting shipment Since
it requires 150 to 160 days for each
boat that Is sent to Java, the possibili
ties of obtaining adequate shipments
of Java sugar this season are remote.
Allies' Production Falls.
Taking the Allied nations as a group,
official reports show that beet sugar
production Is less by one-third than the
pre-war average.
French beet sugar Industry has suf
fered most by the war. The French
yield of beet sugar la now only 29.1
per cent of the pre-war average.
For the five years preceding the out
break of hostilities In Europe, France
produced an average of 752,542 tons of
sugar each year. For 1917-18 the
French production was 219,416 tons.
With 61 factories operating, as com
pared with more than 200 that were
In existence before the war and before
the general campaign of destructive-
ness launched by the German armies,
France nevertheless managed to mnnu
facture more beet sugar In 1917-18
than In 1916-17, when the total output
was 202,415 tons.
Italy In 1917-18 produced 100,800
tons of beet sugar, which was 56,000
tons less than the previous year and
110,250 less than the annual output of
tugar for the five year pre-war pe
riod. One of the great difficulties experi
inced In Italy's beet sugar Industry
vus finding sufficient labor to handle
he crop. Thousands of men usually
mplo.vi'd in beet sugar production
cere culled for military service. The
U'ld per acre amounted to approxl-
:i;h,v !i:ilf of the usual quantity of
