COLONIAL SUGAR
QUOTAS FIXED
Britain's Share Of Any "Increase Given Away
The Colonial Secretary nas de-
of cided the allocation sugar quotas for 1937-38 on the unanim- ous recommendation of the Per- manent Advisory Committee of Colonial Sugar Producers, it is of- actally anounced.
The basic quota for the Colonial Empire is 950,000 long tons.
Above this figure the Colonial Empire is entitled to a proportion- ate share of any increase in Em- pire consumption in 1937-38 over that in the current year. The Unit- ed Kingdom has agreed that its own share of such increase may, for 1937-38, be enjoyed by the Co- lonial Empire.
The increase has been estimated- at 3 per cent, which, with the in- clusion of the United Kingdom share, results in an addition of 47,000 tons to the Colonial quota, making A total of 997,000 tons avaliable.
The recommendation of the Committee was that the quotas for 1937-38 should be: Barbados, 114, 000 long tons; British Gulana. 170.000 tons; FUji, 135.000; Jamaica. 86.000: Leeward Islands, 43.500: Mauritius, 203,000; Trinidad, 138,- 000: Windward Islands, 10,500; and East Africa, 27,000.
it is The Colonial Secretary, stated, fully appreciates that in: dividual Dependencies may have hoped that the quota allocated tu them individually would be larger, but he is satisfied that the alle cation is as fair as possible.
The question. how the quotas for each colony are to be divided among individual producers is left for local decision, but the Colon- ial Secretary considers it import- ant that, so far as possible, spë- cial consideration should be given to the position of small cane-far-
mers.
