| "The sugar used in sweet drinks must be brought to America in ships. Last year, 4000,000,000 lbs of sugar were imported for sweet drinks. These ships must now be used to carry soldiers to the front. Drink less sweetened beverages. We are at war. Every spoonful--every sip, means less for a fighter." |
