2 POUNDS SUGAR
PER PERSON PER
MONTH, NEW RULE
Special Permit Required After
Purchase of First 25 Pounds
for Preserving; Requisi
tions Ordered.
Because of the critical sugar situa
tion, drastic changes in the sugar rules
were announced Wednesday by,Gur-
don W. Wattles, federal food admin
istrator for Nebraska.
Consumers are requested to limit
their consumption of sugar in the
homes to two "pounds per person per
month; consumers in cities and towns
can buy only two pounds for home
consumption and five pounds in rural
communities.
Sales of sugar are limited to 25
pounds to a family for canning and
preserving purposes and a second pur
chase can be made only upon a special
permit issued by the county food ad
ministrator.
These new regulations were made
after advices from Herbert C. Hoover
and are being sent to all county food
administrators by Mn Wattles. Ad
ministrator Hoover states the short
age is is occasioned by shorter Cuban
deliveries than was anticipated, larger
consumpton and losses through sub
marine sinking of sugar ships.
Manufacturers Affected.
The restrictions also will reach out
to manufacturers, says Wattles. His
advices are that less essential manu
factures probably will be limited to 50
per cent of their requiremeats, in
stead of 80, after July lj'also that
many essental manufacturers will be
reclassified in the less essential divi
sion. Ice cream probably will be even
a less essential classification.
To enforce the ruline reauirinsr the
filing of reports Mr. Wattlei is asked
tovrequisition all sugar in the oosses-
sion of less essental manufacturers,
who had not reported on June 10, and
to requisition all excess sugar held bv
less essential manufacturers on July 1.
cmpnasis is also given that less essen
tial manufacturers who failed to re
port will get no sugar this year.
aii manufacturers using sugar can
get it now only on presentation of cer
tificates issued by the Omaha office. A
comprehensive pUii, with rules, is
being worked out, putting retailers
and hotels on a certificate basis, and
will be announced soon. iavi Mr.
Wattles.
