COFFEE COMBINE
KEEPS PRICE UP
Ell Paso Dealers Join IN War
Which They Ask Con
gresS to Wage.

An effort Is being made by coffee mer-
chants. both wholesale and retail, to get
the United States government TO take
some action about the coffee situation.
It is claimed that the coffee trust, con
trolled by a few men. has eOrnsred the
market and is continually sending the
price of coffee skvward.
Petitions have been sent from differ
ent parts of the country to the repre-
sentatives in Washington, urging an m
vestigatiOn of the causes responsible iOr
the enormous advance in coffee prices.
Local coffee men have sent petIJlons 70
representative W. r. Smith in Washing
ton, hoping to secure his aid IN the
campaign against the trusts.
The increase in prices Is largely due
to the action taken by the government
of Brazil in protecting its planters ana
cOrneTing the coffee product. The 6ulH
of the coffee comes from South American
plantations, with Brazil as the largest
producer.
Since this action by the Brazilian
government, the big coffee importers
have had to pay an increased price 20
secure the crop and consequently the
prices have continued to soar and the
retail merchants and rOasters are selling
at such an exceedingly narrow margin
that 1t is claimed the dealers VIII nave
TO charge the consumers even higher
prices in order to make any profit at
all.
Blank petitions have been sent to con-
sumers with every package of coffee sold,
and many hundreds have been signed and
sent in to representative Smith from
this district
