Finding Of Big
Puts Rationing
Washington, Oct. 3 (U.R)
Civilians may be able to throw
their ration books away some
time next spring.
This prospect was hold out to
day b Secretary of Agriculture
Clinton P. Anderson as he 'dis
closed the discovery of 1,600,000
tons of Japanese-stored sugar in
liberated Java ports.
The American share of this un
expected stockpile la likely to be
at least 700,000 tons about 10
pounds per person if evenly di
vided among the population. An
derson said it was enough to
make possible the end of sugar
rationing many months earlier
than anticipated.

Officials originally feared that
MOST SINCE 1943
Sixty-one building permits,

Sugar Stock
End In Sight
sugar rationing would be neces
sary through 1946. With the sud
den discovery of the large slocks
In Java, and the prospect of even
more In other Pacific areas, An
derson indicated that sugar cou
pons may be torn up when the
Cuban sugar crop is harvested
next spring.
The rationing of fats and oils,
meats and the few other foods
still on the ration list is expected
to end by Jan. 1 or shortly there
after. Shoes, the only other Item
for which ration books are now
used, are expected to become
ration free within weeks.
To Pool Find
Bakers, candy makers and oth
er Industrial users probably will
have their sugar quotas liberaliz
ed almost immediately as result
of the sudden improvement In
supply.
Anderson said the Java sugar
would be assigned to the Allied
Nations pool for allocation to
member nations by the combined
food board. The United States
normally gets about half of the
pooled supply.
He said it was entirely likely
that even more sugar will be
found in the interior of Java, on
Formosa, the Philippines and
possibly the Japanese home is
lands. OPEN OCTOBER 29
October term of the circuit
court will open Monday, Oct. Z9,
when a new grand jury and a
new petit jury will be drawn.
Five or six criminal cases and a
number of other matters will he
brought before the new gra.id
Jury. No grand Jury session has
been held since last May.
The new Jury list will be
drawn soon for the October

that have been pending for a
