CUBA CANE SUGAR CORP. 



The Cuba Cane Sugar Corporation is ex- 

 pected to act favorably at a meeting of the 

 board on June 15, on plans for the acquisition 

 of additional sugar plantations and other 

 facilities which will result in a material in- 

 crease in the company's production next 

 season. 



It is understood that the company has 

 about $20,000,000 of cash as the result of 

 high prices received for the 1916 crop, but 

 Directors said that no dividend would be 

 inaugurated on the common stock at this 

 time. The propo.sed purchases of new prop- 

 erties will be paid for out of cash on hand, 

 obviating the need of any new financing.
