This might be expected- to presage liberalized sugar rations, but officiate said .emphatically that -it doesn’t, Total supplies are still not far out o f lihe with their estimates, and a cer­ tain amount o f stockpiling, is healthy rather than otherwise, lb. the grain renter of Minneapolis and'aome other spots, the apparent oversupply was caused by the fact that food processors -and other big users had larger stocks than antici­ pated, .Thesowili.be exhausted soon and the.mills will be back in the mar­ ket for .their full allocations. Further, government men feel it is better to move the sugar now to the consuming points- than to' jam trans­ portation facilities by shipping it when the bumper grain crop starts rolling. _ Demand wilt go up -shortly, it was anticipated* because winter wheZt will be coming in this month and next, and spring wheat in August. The pro­ cessing o f these and other grains will absorb a considerable part o f the su­ gar supplies. " , If it should appear that,no storage could be found for scheduled ship­ ments to Minneapolis or other points, the sugar will be diverted to points of greater scarcity. OFA said.
