 of^the Centrals were compelled to stop grinding earlier than usual, which resulted in a much smaller 

 production than was anticipated.

 Bank will open a branch in Warsaw to 

 centralize the sale of sugar. This bank 

 and its branch will dispose of the wole

 tion for the world will be approximately
