AMERICA

A PRO CLAM ATIO N
W H EREAS section 509 of the Sugar Act of 1937 provides, in part:
Whenever the President finds and proclaims that a national economic or other emergency exists with respect to sugar or liquid sugar, he shall by procla mation suspend the operation of Title n or H I above, which he determines, on the basis of such findings, should be suspended, and, thereafter, the operation of any such title shall continue in sus pense until the President finds and pro claims that the facts which occasioned such suspension no longer exist.
WHEREAS the outbreak of war among major European countries has resulted in excessive and harmful speculation in sugar and rapidly rising prices to con sumers, which conditions are accentuated by the marketing limitations imposed under title H of the Act; and WHEREAS such increased prices of sugar will not accrue to the benefit of the majority of producers by reason of the sale of much o f their current crop before the outbreak o f the war:
NOW, THEREFORE, I, F R A N K L IN D.
ROOSEVELT, President of the United States of America, acting under and by virtue of the authority vested in me by the foregoing provision of the Sugar Act of 1937, do hereby find and proclaim that a national economic emergency exists with respect to sugar, and do by this proclamation suspend the operation of title n of that Act.
DONE at the City of Washington this 11th day of September in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and seal thirty-nine, and of the Inde pendence of the United States
