Bitter Sugar.

The article reports on the impact of the military overthrow of Chilean President Salvador Allende Gossens to the sugar shipments from Cuba. Accordingly, a Cuban ship left Valparaiso so quickly during the coup that its crew had no time to put ashore four Chilean cranes that were being used to unload sugar for fear of getting bombed. It adds that Chilean lawyers have filed papers in the U.S. District Court for the Canal Zone seeking attachment of the ships for sailing in the canal, which has been granted by judge Guthrie Crowe but authorities have already missed nabbing the two sugar-bearing ships except for the Cuban freighter Imias.
