The magnificent sugar i !dustry of the United States field, cluding the producers and refiner both beet and cane, whether of cont nental United States, the Philippines, Hawali, Porto Rico or of Cuba, has paid almost with its life. ited tes investments, in the hands of hundreds of thousands of people, amounting to several billions of dol- lars, have been placed in jeopardy. Decontrolled by Fiat. “The United States sugar industry, the greatest of its kind in the world, ranking in importance with steel, railroads and f: products, was de- controlled by lative flat and ex- ecutive order without regard to elementary economio laws. “The report shows a loss on opera- tlons of $2,177,276 during 1921. S plus was drawn on for $5,311, meet operating losses and to provide for dividends declared. The operating {losses were attributed to steadily de- { clining pric The total tonnage of the country equaled that of the year befor, amounted to $140,000,000. Balance of surplus and reserves amount to mowe than §29,000,000. Merely a Continuation. ‘The events of 1921 the report said, “are merely a continuation of 1920, all incident to the disastrous at- tempt by our government to control a world staple, for two vears held below its world’s parity, without the cau- tion of accumulating stocks or of tak- ing any other preparatory measure for the transition. While the finan- cial effect on the refiners and pro- ducers of the United States, both beet and cane, has been most disastrous, yet the abject disaster of Cuba has been the outstanding feature of the year. Cuba has had to bear not only the burden of its ordinary crop, but of its stimulatgd production. 'S> violent was Cuba’s reaction that most of its banks were carried away. In the stress of its financial needs it, too, undertook. the risk of sugar con- trol. It should be set down, however, to the credit of the Cuban sugar in- dustry that even in its great national financial distress the necessary con sent of 70 per cent of Cuban produc-{ tion was obtained with the very great- est difficulty. The Cuban sugar in- dustry, like others, has learned the peril of government control. Pictures Great Risk. “Is it not time for the public, who must in the end pay the bill on every fpound of sugar they buy,” the report continued, “to insist that the sugar industry be given a rest from any further control or experiments of any kind, of any name, of any device. and be given an opportunity to recover its position under its own direction and administration? In any event whoever undertakes to introduce further artificial measares present complicated position of the sugar industry does so at great risk and under grave responsibility to the entire people of the United States. “The refiner stands between the producer and the consumer and usual- ly bears the burden of the consumer’s complaints, but he will assume no responsibility for the high prices which will come with any artificial crop curtailment or other experi- ments. The people of the United States understand that the govern- ment stepped into the sugar situation ddring the war, but certainly they will be unwilling to pay the price of any further experiments, or any effort to exploit the disaster of d control to the advantage of any sec- tion of the industry. “The law_ of supply and demand is inexorable in itself, and before it all people, whatever government or individuals, whether legislators or consumers, still must yield.” VISCOUNT GREY ILL.
