Actual balances reported by shippers still waiting assign- 

 ment of tonnage 369,386 



On that date there were some 53,000 tons of sugar still awaiting assignment of 

 tonnage, but this sugar has now all been allotted, and notice of allotment of new crop 

 sugars by the International Committee is expected any day. 



Our domestic crop is proceeding satisfactorily, but we have reduced our estimate 

 slightly to 635,000 tons. Of the new 1918-19 crop 40,190 tons of sugar have already 

 been distributed by the Chicago Committee of the Food Administration.
