Candy Makers Cut Out Overtime
To Help Government Save Sugar
' Omaha yand Council Bluffs candy
manufacturers have decided to con
form to the request of the food ad
ministration to cut down on the man
ufacture of candy, and at a meeting
decided to eliminate all overtime and
to discontinue certain makes of candy
in order to conserve sugar.
The following statement was issued
by the Omaha candy manufacturers:
"In order to conserve the sugar
supply the food administration at
Washington is asking for a consider
able decrease in the production of
candy. To meet this request the
candymakers have decided to discon
tinue all overtime and also, to cut out
a number of items.'
Washington, Oct. 20. As a pre
liminary step, for conservation of
sugar against a further shortage the
food administration today sent out a
telegram urging reduction of sales to
candy manufacturers. The warning
was sent to all the sugar distributing
agencies of the country, notably the
American refiners' committee of New
York and the sugar distributing com
mittee of Chicago, which handle cane
and beet sugar, respectively.
"We consider if essential," the tele
gram read, "to reduce consistently the
sales of sugar for production of candy.
Must be reduced in order to provide
for household and allied needs. This
request a -pl:es to manufacturers of
guns, cordials, syrupS and luxuries.
Manufacturers of food products
should have preference, condensed
milk companies coming first"
Chicago, Oct. 20. Formal warning
was, issued here this7 afternoon on
instructions from the office of' Food
Administrator Hoover that a sugar
famine is upon the country and that
ia t
th mnmpnt of America S nrst seir-
denial in the matter of food has ar
rived. The warning states '.hat manufac
turers using sugar in' their products1
are' closing down and that thousands
of persons are threatened with tem
porary loss of employment. In
dividuals as well as dealers are called
upon to do with the absolute mini
mum of the product. It was an
nounced that as the Atlantic states
have the greatest scarcity,, that Deet
sugar from the west will be rushed
first to that section.
