Congressman Larson
Introduces Measure
(ieorffian (;«es After Fertilizer Trust.
—Would Break It Up.—Cites
HiRher Price#.
Sandwiches That Are Different
Washington, Jan. 20.—Congressman
Larsen of Georgia has gone after the
fertilizer trust and is determined, he
said today, to either break it up
through the medium of the federal
trade commission or the department
of justice.
Mr. Larsim, introducing a drastic
resolution looking to this end, issued
a statement in which he said: “I have
introduced today two resolutions, both
at the solicitation of consituents in my
district, regarding the sale of feitili-
zer at this time. The information
which I have is such that I think at
least it very strongly tends to show
that the fertilizer corporations of
this country am not only unfair to the.
farmers but they are actually violat-J
ing the law with reference to the anti
trust provisions now in force. Not
only this, but they have in my judg
ment and I believe, in the judgment of
many others who are perhaps in a bet
ter position to pass upon the question
than I am, been unduly advancing the
prices of the commodities they am of
fering to sell and which they are sell
ing to farmers at this time.
“As an illustration, last year the
fertilizer concerns in my locality were
selling delivered in my home city, a
9-2-3 grade of fertilizer at $17 fret;
ton f. o. b. that city. This year the
companies are selling the same fertil
izer at $23, an increase in round fig-
'ures of $7 per ton over the pi ice of
last year. They sold last year a 12-4-4
grade( of fertilizer at $21 a ton at this
point, and they a re now selling and of
fering to sell at this same point the
same grade of fertilizer at $32 12. It
is stiange indeed that they sell at the
same price and at these unusual fig
ures.
“You will observe that this is an in
crease in price ranging from $7 to
more than $8 per ton and if you will
figure the percentage of increase you
will see that it is extremely large.
“So far as I am aware or advised,
there is no increase in the cost of the
commodities composing thesw fertili
zers which would wan ant such an in
crease. -r
“^Certainly the condition of the
farmers who arc using these fertili
zers, and who propose to use them, is
not such that they are able to pay for
the commodititis a t thesis advanced
prices; and, mind you, these are cash
prices. There is no element of risk in
volved. It js a cash proposition. As
a rule our farmers are forced to pay
V • I
for their fertilizers when they get
them or t Ise pay an additional price of
something like $8 to $10 a ton foi the
commodity if they obtain credit.
“All 1 want is a department of this
government which has been created
for the express purpose to make the
investigation a nd to report its findings
