Un der authority of congress to investi gate combinations of foreign produc ers of Import commodities, this de partment, as soon as applications were available on March 4, Instituted an Investigation Into the situation in Cuhar. As the department has no jurisdiction in domestic quostlons of the kind, I informally suggested to the chairman of the federal trade commission that It should undertake this end of the matter. "I wrote to Senator Brookhart, re publican, Iowa, on February 26, In this connection a letter which was read Into the Congressional Record as follows: " 'I am In receipt of your lotter of February 23.

As to the quos t'.ou of sugar supply, a world survey made by this department showed that the stocks of sugar on hand from last year plus the production of this year were estimated at a total of 19,511 000 tons whereas the consumption for tho year was estimated at 19, 0:15,000 tons, leaving a probablo Bur- plus at the end of tho year of 470,- 000 tons Some mlsconcoptlon has arisen because the estimated surplus of tho year Bhowed a decrease from tho abnormal stocks at tho beginning of the year. There is obviously no 'hortage In sugar and moreover, an undue Increase In price will decrease consumption. "I would be delighted to see any Impart'al inquiry Into the specula tion which has brought about a rise In tho price of sugar or any other phase of tho matter. There Ib noth ing that tho federal administration wishes more thnn to Bee a reasonable price and a stable market In sugar and other commodities without spec ulation. "I regrot to see Mr, Manly circu lating tho legend that the department stated there was a Bhortage of sugar at this only tends to benefit tho spec ulators and tho department made no such statement.

Belgian troops have occupied Krupp harbor at Hochem merich on the Rhine near Dulsberg for the purpose of controlling exports from this harbor and the collection of the ten per cent tax on goods shipped. All kinds of smuggling tricks have been resorted to by the Germans in bringing money from Berlin into the occupied area. Various government officials, ac cording to the French, are being used to further passive resistance measures The French claim the Germans are using the banks and postofflces as well as individuals, to bring money into the Ruhr. In Duesseldorf, the French seized at a postofflce 15,000, 000 marks which had been sent there for one of the strike leaders to collect and distribute among the working men under government pay. upon the concern voiced by various speakers over Great Britain's inferior ity in the air. The general conclusion Is that there Is ample justification for uneasiness I in the country's defenselessness and that the Inequality is too dangerous to be allowed to continue. Friendship with France, It is pointed out, will not be less sincere If Britain's air strength Ib put on an equal footing. AERIAL DEFENSE LONDON, Mar. 22. (By Associated Press).
