"The world sugar supply has tightened markedly in recent months."

"I have asked Secretary Butz to ensure that all American farmers are made aware of the excellent market opportunities offered by sugar beets and sugarcane."

"The actions I am taking will maintain duties on sugar imports at the lowest permissible rate under the Tariff Schedules of the United States."

"There will be no lessening in this Administration of my support for a strong Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines, and the Coast Guard."
