PAGE 14 U.S. WONT KEEP SUGAR PRICES UP Bottom Has Fallen Out of Market; Further Decline Seems Certain RY GEORGE B. WATERS WASHINGTON would be a vic act and the L “Furthermore, H stated in New York the prices, will be called upon the car pet. He was unauthorised to make such an assertion.” PALMER'S SECRETARY CONTRADICTS FLOYD This statement was made by Rob- ert T. Scott, private secretary Attorney General Palmer in regard to a statement of Floyd. a, special agent of the New York “flying squadron is supposed to be running down prof iteers. After attending a of refiners and wholesalers in New York, Floyd stated that the govern ment would assist the sugar dealers in preventing a further great drop | in price. The bottom has fallen out of sugar prices and a further decline seems certain. A few days ago sugar was selling wholesale at 24 cents a pound, and one eastern refiner, who had ceased to operate on account of high prices, got an unexpected Cuba and immediately dropped the Price to 20% cents. Three western refiners followed suit and now sugar is retailing in many cities for 15 cents a pound. Speculators and prof. iteers got bumped PANIC AMONG BIG SUGAR DEALERS The sudden drop caused a panic among the big sugar they hurriedly called a meeting. Floyd's statement followed. “It's this department's business to lower prices, not them,” stated Scott. The sharp decline in sugar prices is caused, principally, by large ship- ments of sugar received from Argen tina, Czecho-Slovakia and other coun: | from. tries. High prices in America caused sugar to flow here. Also, up to July 15 the people had absorbed sugar at the rate of 100.02 pounds per year, as against the pre vious high record for 1919 of 80.43 pounds. J. G. Weatherly, department of Justice sugar expert, said this indi cated the people had sugar stocks— about 35 pounds per family for the nation. SUGAR SUPPLY GREATER THAN DEMAND ‘The people quit buying and now the supply is much greater than the demand. Hoarders of sugar may lose millions asx a result of the de cline: Many wholesalers and retail- ers are unloading sugar below cost in anticipation of a further decline. “It has been called to the depart attention.” said Scott, some refiners are holding customers to contracts made at high prices. it is found that this is a violation of the Lever law they will be prosecut ment Another thing that broke the price was the fact that many canners and housewives refused serves and jams at high prices.
