AMERICAN SUGAR
SENT TO
American Price Rigidly Regulated
by United States Food
Administration.
CONSUMERS HERE PAY 9c. (
8ugar Cost 35 Cents a Pound During
Civil War Refiners' Profits
Now Curtailed.
Sugar Is selling today throughout
America at from 8 to 9 cents a
pound to the consumer, even though
there Is a world shortage which has
reduced this nation's sugar allotment
to 70 per cent ol normal.
Through the efforts of the United
States food administration the sugar
market has been regulated as far as
the producer, refiner - and wholesaler
Is "concerned. The food administration
has no power to regulate retail prices
except by public opinion. Even though
more than 85,000 tons of sugar have
been shipped to France In the last
four months the retail grocer's sugar
price is around 8 to 8 cents. He
should sell this sugar at 8 to 9
cents, the food administration believes,
and asks the American housewife to
pay no more than this amount.
Last August when the food admin
istration was organized the price of
sugar rose suddenly to 11 cents a
pound. During the Civil War sugar
cost the consumer 85 cents a pound.
By regulation of the sugar market and
reducing the price to 8 and 9 cents
and keeping It from advancing to 20
cdnts the food administration has sav
ed the American public at least $180,
000,000 In four months, according to
a statement made by Herbert Hoover
the other day.
"It Is our stern duty to feed the al
lies, to maintain their health and
strength at any cost to ourselves,"
Mr. Hoover declared. "There has not
been, nor will be as we see It, enough
sugar for even their present' meagre
and depressing ration unless they send
ships to remote markets for It If we
In our greed and gluttony force them
either to further reduce their ration
or to send these ships we will have
done damage to our abilities to win
this war.
"If we send the ships to Java
for 250,000 tons of sugar next year
we will have necessitated the em
ployment of eleven extra ships for
one year. These ships if used in
transporting trcops would take
150,000. to 200,000 men to France."
Reason for World Shortage.
As Mr. Hoover pointed out the
United States, Cnnada and England
were sugar importing countries before
the war, while France and Italy were
very nearly self supporting. The main
sources of the world's, sugar supply
was Germany and neighboring powers,
the West Indies and the East Indies.
German sugar Is no longer available,
as It Is used entirely In Germany,
which also absorbs sugar of surround
Ing countries.
England can no longer buy 1,400,000
long tons of sugar each year from
Germany. The French sugar produc
tlon has dropped from 750,000 to 210,
000 tons. The Italian production has
fallen from 210,000 tons to 75,000 tons.
Thus three countries were thrown
upon East and West Indian sources
for 1,925,000 tons annually to maintain
their normal consumption.
Because of . the world's shipping
shortage the allied nations started
drawing on the West Indies for sugar;
East Indian sugar took three times
the number of ships, since the dis
tance was three times as great Sud
denly the west was called on to fur
nish and did furnish 1,420,000 tons of
sugar to Europe when 300,000 tons a
year was the pre-war demand. The
allies had drawn from Java 400,000
tons before the shipping situation be
came acute.
"In spite of these shipments," Mr.
Hoover stated the other day, "the
English government in August reduced
the household sugar ration to a basis
of 24 pounds per annum per capita.
And In September the French govern
ment reduced their household ration
to 18 2-10 pounds a year, or a bit over
1 pound of sugar a month. Even this
meagre ration couM not be filled by
the French government it was fwnd
early In the fall. America was then
asked for 100,000 tons of sugar and
succeeded in sending 85,000 tons By
December 1. The French request was
- granted because the American houses
hold consumption was then at least 55
pounds per person, and it was consid
ered the duty of maintaining the
French morale made our cojirse clear."
Today the sugar situation "may
be summarized by stating that if
America will reduce its sugar con
sumption 10 to 15 per cent this
nation will be able to send 200,000
more soldiers to France.
Sugar today sells at seaboard re
fineries at $7.25 a hundred pounds.
The wholesale grocer has agreed to
limit his profit to 25 cents a hundred
plus freight and the retail grocer is
supposed to take no more than 50 cqntfl
a hundred pounds profit This regu
lation was made by the food adminis
tration, which now asksthe housewife
to reduce sugar consumption as much
as possible, using other sweeteners,
and also .reminds her that she should
pay no more than 9 cents a pound foi
sugar.
Centre! of Can Refiners' Profits.
'Immediately upon the establish
; ment of the food administration," Mr
FRANCE
Hoover said, "an examination" wail
made of the costs and profits of refimlf
lng and It was finally determined that
the spread between the cost of r&rf m
ana the sale of refined cane sugar!)
should be limited to fLSO per hundred
pounds. The pre-war differential had r
averaged about 83 cU ummA
nnafa vara fnnnn tn hit hdn ImMUi
"w.w -
ed by the war In Increased cost of ref
fining, losses, cost of bags, labor, insurf;
ance, interest and other things, rather
more than cover the difference. Afteif
prolonged negotiations the refiners'
were placed under agreement estab?;
lisning tnese limits on uciooer x,,nnu.
anything over this amount to be agreed
extortionate under the law.
"In the course of these lnvestljgtt
tlons it was found by canvass of th$
Cuban 'producers that their sugar hadU
during , the first nine months of thH
past year, sold for an average or aoouj ?
$4.24 per hundred t . o. b. . Cuba, tl
which duty and freight added to thl
refiners' cost amount to about $5.6$;
per hurfdred. The average sale prlce
of granulated by various refineries, acf
cording to our investigation, was about
$7.50 per hundred, or a differential oft
$1.84. ; if
"In reducing the differential to $1.80!
there was a saving to the public of 54
cents ner hundred. Had such a ave
ferentlal been In use from the 1st oft
January. 1917. the public would -havet
saved In the first nine months of th4

food administration have been made
because the Cuban price is 84 cents
above that of 1017. It Is said In effect
that the Cubans are at our mercy;
that we could gef ' sugar a cent lower.
We made exhaustive study of the cost
of producing sugar in Cuba last year
through our own agents In Cuba,' and
we find it averages $3.39, while many
producers are at a higher level. We
found that an average profit of at
least a cent per pound was necessary
in order to maintain and stinfulate,
production or that a minimum price of
$4.37 was necessary, and ' even this
would stifle some producers. .
"The price ultimately agreed was 23
cents above these figures, or about one
fifth of a cent per pound to the Ameri
can consumer, and more than this
amount has been saved by our reduc
tion in refiners' profits. . If we wish to
stifle production lnCuba we could
take that course just at the time of all
times in our history when we want
production for ourselves and the a
lies. Further than that, the state de
partment will assure you that, such a
course would produce disturbances in
Cuba and destroy even our present
supplies, but beyond all these material
reasons Is one of human justice. This
great country has no right by 'the
might of Its position to strangle Cuba.
"Therefore there Is no Imposition i
upon the American public Charges
have been made before this commit;
tee that Mr. Rolph endeavored to ben
efit the California refinery of which he
was manager by this 84 cent increase
in Cuban price. Mr. Rolph did hot fix
the price. It does raise the price to
the Hawaiian farmer about that
amount It does not raise the profit of
the California refinery, because their
charge for refining Is, like all other re
finers, limited to $1.30 per hundred
pounds, plus the freight differential ons
the established custom of the trade.
"MrBolph has not one 'penny of in
terest in that refinery."
