THE CUBA REVIEW 



37 



Como hemos mencionado anteriormente, la demande por el azucar refinado mejoro 

 bastante, y esto necesito aumentos en los precios por el azucar refinado durante el 

 mes de 6.90c. a 7.00c., luego a 7.10c., y mas tarde a 7.25c., pero esta ultima cotizacion 

 nunca se sostuvo por complete, y al escribir esta resefia la demanda es fioja bajo la 

 base de 7.10c. por el azucar granulado.
