Central Sugar
McMillen was used to calling the shots, and did not enjoy runnign Allied Mills. By 1933, he had left that company to start a new business in a new location and a new industry. He bought the old abandoned Central Sugar sugar beet plant in Decatur, Indiana, about 25 miles (40 km) south of Fort Wayne, refurbished it, and processed sugar in the 1934 season.

Famous quotes containing the words central and/or sugar:
“But when the self speaks to the self, who is speaking?—the entombed soul, the spirit driven in, in, in to the central catacomb; the self that took the veil and left the world—a coward perhaps, yet somehow beautiful, as it flits with its lantern restlessly up and down the dark corridors.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“There is no sugar cane that is sweet at both ends.”
—Chinese proverb.
