HAVANA, Cuba, Oct. 28 (AP) - A committee of sugar growers has recommended to President Machado that the coming sugar crop be limited to about 4,500,000 tons.

The planters also suggest that a world sugar conference be called to prevent over-production.

Curtailment of the Cuban sugar crop to 4,500,000 tons would bring the indicated world production for this year to virtually the world consumption for the 12 months ending August 31, 1926 with the consequent elimination of the carryover which has been held by the trade to have hampered recovery of the industry.

Consumption for the 12 months ending with last August was announced as 23,826,000 tons and the prospective crop for the current year at 24,-290,000 tons.

The new figure set by the Cuban growers in their recommendation to President Machado represents a reduction of almost one million tons from the 5,330,000 yield predicted by some trade observers here early last summer.

The restrictive campaign adopted by the producers in the inland were credited with having cut this to 4,-900,000 tons, however.
