restrict their output, and, 1 this proves correct, I hope that there will not be so much available for dumping in China,

Turning now to the accounts, you will notice that the overdraft at bankers mounted to $2,748,- 518.77 at 91st December and was secured by a debenture for $2,000,- 000. The General Agents have, with the approval of the Consult- ing Committee, granted our bankers a debenture covering all the Company's aasata with the ex- ception of stocks of raw and re- fined sugar to secure an overdraft up to $2,000,000. In addition to this, we are allowed a further $700,000 against 75 per cent. of the market value of stocks of eu- gur at East Point. These fact

Hies, gentlemen, are all we can. get for aur ordinary business, and, In my opinion, they are te much" as can reasonably be expected." As the Company is situated to-day, however, we are very short of cash, and the advance to the Com pany, from the General Agents amounted to 31,559,468-86 on 31st December in addition to the over- draft at bankers. It may therefore be better to increase the capital of the Company and this is a mat, ter that will receive the attention of the General Agents and Consult- ing Committee when conditions are more favourable.

Depreciation on the usual scale has been provided for on buildings and machinery, and our plant has been kept in a thoroughly efficient condition by systematic repairs and renewals, $60,944.50 having been spent during the year. Our stocks of both raw, and refined sugar at the 31st De- cember, 1925, have been written down to market: values at that date, and it is expected that the

unclosed shipments will be more than adequate.

As regards,the future, I am re- luctant to make any prophecies, as the factors that make for success. or otherwise are so varied and the vagaries of the sugar market sa unexpected and sudden, that it is practically impossible to give any reliable forecast, and we have also to contend with the civil wars In China which are continually up- setting the interior markets At the moment, the raw markets are somewhat excited over the recent decision of the Cuban Government to curtall the output of the pre- sent crop by 10 per cent. This has been brought about by the critical situation there due to the low Hongkong... level of prices which are less than

There is some doubt as to whether this restriction can be enforced, but it is evident that if some 500,- 000 tons are withdrawn from the world's supplies of sugar avail- able for this year, higher prices may be looked for.
