CUBA A FORMIDABLE COMPETITOR 



Mr. Noel Deerr, having recently severed 

 his connection with the Experiment Station 

 of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association, 

 has been offered and has accepted a post 

 under the Cuban Government in connection 

 with the sugar industry of that island. It 

 has been known for some little time that 

 President Menocal had secm-ed Mr. Deerr's 

 services, but the earlier rumor that he had 

 been appointed Dii-ector of the Experiment 

 Station at Santiago de las Vegas has proved 

 erroneous, as his particular post is one quite 

 independent of the Sugar Experiment Station, 

 and he is officially styled Expert in Sugar 

 Cane Agriculture and Manufacture to the 

 Cuban Government. This, we take it, 

 implies that Mr. Deerr will exercise a super- 

 vision over all the sugar interests, agri- 



cultural and manufacturing, in Cuba, and 

 will advise the Government as to any steps 

 to take to further the interests of the sugar 

 producing community in general. Apart 

 from that, we have little doubt that, subject 

 to the approval of his superiors, he will be 

 at the service of any particular establish- 

 ment which may happen to requii-e the 

 assistance of an expert to solve any important 

 difficult3^ 



Cuba is already a most formidable com- 

 petitor in the world's cane sugar markets, 

 and what she will be capable of when her 

 industry is carried on on lines analogous to 

 those adopted in Java and Hawaii, one can 

 only conjecture. But it is fairly certain 

 that the result will be to establish yet further 

 her paramount position. — International Sugar
