Industrial Sugar Rationing Ended No Appropriations Made By Congress Washington, July 28 - (UP) The department of agriculture ended rationing of Industrial sugar at noon today' because “congress failed to appropriate the fund” necessary to (tmtlnue the program. The department had asked for $710,000 to carry out its rationing and price controls until Oct 31. But congress trimmed this request down to $210,000. Sugar was the last farm commodity to remain under rationing. The department said. however, that it still was holding on to sugar price controls, and that sugar Inventory controls have been set up. The department said that Its sugar rationing administration was being liquidated immediately. “Most of the employes are being dismissed today without the usual 30 day notices of dismissal, as sufficient funds have not been made available to continue paying their salaries for this period." it said. Sugar price controls which will continue in effect until Oct. 31. 1948, and inventory controls will be handled by the department's sugar branch of the production and marketing administration. The new Inventory controls limit sugar inventories for any person, other than household users, to a maximum of 2.000 lbs., limit industrial or institutional users to 140 percent of the quantity used during the previous year and limit wholesalers and retailers to quantities sold by them during the preceding calendar month. With the lifting of rationing contrdTS all suspension orders relating to sugar are revoked and all such proceedings now pending are terminated, the department said. 0 Rockford Youth Is Charged As Speeder fxtwell Deitsch, 20. of Rockford.
