HouseholdEs-Noiv May Buy
3 Pounds, Instead of 2. a
Month For Each Person

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

WASHINGTON, Nov. l.~»Tlie sugar
allowance of two pounds monthly a
person for householders was increased
to three pounds monthly yesterday by
Food Administrator Hoover. effective
today. The sugar regulations also
are revised to permit the purchase of
the entire month‘s supply for a futility
at one time.

,This relaxation of the restrictions
placed on the use of sugar four
months ago was made possible. .\ir
Hoover's statement said. throuzlrtttc
rapid manufacture of the beet sugar
crop‘in the west, the new cane crap in
the south. reductions of consumption
in manufacture. freer transportation
conditions and patriotic conservation
by the public.

Little Change in State

HARTFORD. Nov. i.—Robert
ville. federal food administrator for
Connecticut, (ommenting on a tele
gram from Food Adm'nlstrator Hoo-
ver. telling of the increase of {he su-
gar allowance from two pbundif'to
three pounds per person per month.
pointed out that. owing to thd large.
stocks of sugar in the hands of the
public. it is more than likely that the.
Connecticut population has for the
past four months been consuming su-
gar at the rate of about three pounds
per person per month. and in‘ reality
the new allowance will call for as
much conservation in the use of su-
gar as has been pracdced to date.

Fuel Administrator Russell
Says Shippers Have Not
Equalized Distribution

HARTFORD, Nov. l.—-The general
statement made by Dr. Harry A. Gor-
field. ‘U. S. Fuel Administrator, Octo-
ber zfiflndicating a satisfactory supply
of coal throughout the country, does
not apply to the anthracite situation
in Connecticut, according to a state-
ment given out today by Thomas W.
Russell, U. S. Fuel AdministratOr for
('onuecticut.

'hlle it is true that war industries
in this state have adequate supplies
of bituminous coal on hand, the ship-
pers of domettic coal have not equal-
ired distribution. Mr. Russell said.
between various communities. As a
result there are some cities and'
towns in (‘onnecttcut which are still‘
so far behind on shipments of coal for
household use that the matter is giv-
lng considerable concern to the Stats
li‘tlel Administration. ,

Mr. Russell emphasized the necesai-‘
ty of rigid conservation, though he'
added that he did not anticipate an
actual coal famine. provided every
consumer did. his part In comervinz
