COLONIAL SUGAR
Record In Australia And Fiji
RECENT AGREEMENT.
Mr. E R. Knox, chairman of dl- rectors of the Colonial Sugar Re-- dining Company, Limited, in his address
to shareholders at the half-yearly meeting, said that for last season the total outrut of raw sugar from all sugar mills in Aus- 'tralia was 756,000 tons, and from the company's seven milla the yield was 167.000 tons-a' record production in each case,
The increase, he said, was to some extent due to a larger area | having been planted and to favourable season, but also in no small degree to increased effl- ciency in both feld and mill. On the consumptive side there had been a greater demand for sugar throughout the Commonwealth, mainly by manufacturers who use sugar in the preparation of their products. The Fiji output was, as expected, a record of 149,300 tons, and the prospects for the coming season were quite satisfactory.
The business of the Internation- al Conference on Sugar which had reviewed the world sugar position with a view to stabilising prices at an economic level, and which had reached an agreement, was of great importance to the sugar in- dustry of Australia and to the com- pany. particularly, on account of Its sugar-producing interests FIJI

DUMPING OF SUGAR "If this be the result (but the expected does not always happen), then the producers of cane the makers of raw sugar in Aus- tralia should obtain more for the sugar which is now being exported and sold at prices quite unjustiñed by the statistical position but the direct result of artificial conditions. These have permitted certain sugar-producing countries to dump large quantities of raw sugar into the free market at prices con. siderably below the cost of its pro- duction. This situation has threa- tened the existence of the industry in some of the British colonies, which have been kept afloat only by the advantage of a preferential tariff on Empire-grown sugar granted by Great Britain and Ca-
паса.
"Under the terms of the inter- national agreement just arrived at, the producing countries have im- posed quotas upon themselves in an attempt to regulate suppiles to the free market and thus end the disastrous situation that has exist od for some years. So far as Aus tralia is concerned," the export Axed "at 400.000

The agreement will operate for a period of five years, and the Br tish Government has announced that it will maintain the existing perference on Empire
sugar for the term of the agreement. There will thus be stability to Empire production for this period at ang rate. By the end of that time one may perhaps hope to see world trade in sugar, and many other commodities on a more settled and satisfactory basis."
