GOVERNMENT AIMS At
LOWER SUGAJtflJQCXS
f,
The shortage of sugavdahteh is hainff*
felt in every home in York county as in
wellnigh every other hssm in the land,
and the rapid advance m priee, which
bids fair to take an addithmal *1,000,t
. 000,000 from ihe pockets of the Aisaerican
people this year,, have recently;
been the subject of a series of conferences
in Washington, fcotwecn department
of justice official* andaspro*
sentatives of the big sugar greweire,
importers and refiners of the country.
The government, it is understood*
asked cooperation from the refineries
in eliminating sugar profiteering and
hoartling. The unnecessary middlemen
and sugar speculators also are
said to have been a subject for discussion.
Department of justice agents in the
meantime are beginning a vigorous
campaign against sugar profiteers
among the wholesalers and retailers of
the larger cities. s Nineteen retailers
have been arrested in Philadelphia for
making undue pipfits on the article,
six wholesale and four retail dealers
are under arcast in New Orleans, and
one wholesaler and two retailers are in
custody in NewYork city. Some of
these men are alleged to have sdld
sugar for cents a pound for which.
they paid 14 aents.
Sugar prices have been rising steadily
since last autumn until today it is
difficult to get the article for less than
26 cents a pound. It is freely predicted
that it reach the 80-cent
mark by the time-the canning season
opens, and there are some who even
declare that sugar will be selling for
50 cents a pound before the end of the
year.
Charging a corner in .sugar. Senator
Capper of Kansas in a speech in the
senate a few days ?go said that at
"this moment the most brazen challenge
we have had in this saturnalia of
greed comes Jfaom the gamblers in
sugar. A comer has evidently been
formed right under the eyes of the department
of justice. The canning
