Not Fighting High Prices.

A high official of the American To-
bacco Company at Louisville is quoted
as saying that the company was not
fighting the high price of tobacco that
1T could easily pay 25 cents for tobacco
and make money; but it was fighting
to retain control of the price-making.
He argues that with high prices the
over-production would put the price of
the raw material down So low that new
factories would spring up and the trust
would lose the hold on the market it
now controls. The producer, once or
gained, with knowledge gained by ex-
perience during the struggle, could
easily manage to so curtail the output
as to regulate the supply to meet the
demand Lwithout creating a surplus,
and thus insuring uniform fair price
for the benefit of both the producer
and the manufacturer. .

very vague and always accompanied by
the declaration that the protective

pretty safe to predict that if the Re-

the next Congress, that the Trusts
and tariff protected interests will
again control the policy of the MAORI
