Arguments Of
FOES OF TARIFF

In Saturdays issue was printed the
confidential circular of F. c. Lowry,
secretary and treasurer of the groeers'
committee fighting sugar protection.
AS stated in the Introduction there
was other campaign matter enclosed
with the circular to the trade.
Half Cent Maximum. -..:
In the form of petition to the SEN
ate committee, the following state
ments and protest are made: "A rate
equivalent to 20 per cent ad valorem
(Iac. per pound on raw sugar of So
test should be the maximum on this,
one of the principal articles of daily
food. We protest vigorously against
higher rate. The United States is
Singularly favored with natural and
abundant sources of supply, both of
cane and beet sugar, that can be pro-
duced at low cost. In consequence,
consumers should receive refined SUI
gar cheaper than any nation in the
world; and would if it were not for
the high tariff which enhances the
price"
In bulletin, one of the enclosures,
these assertions are made:
THAT if the tariff on sugar was re-
moved barrel of sugar, instead of
costing the merchant on the average
of about SIS, could be bought for
$11.90, or less.
THAT the purchasing power of a
dollar, on the average limited to 16
pounds under the present high rate,
would be extended to 25 pounds I'M
der free sugar" -#.. 49, H..
Says Farmer Does Not Benefit.
In the printed appeal to the trade,
Mr.. Lowry essays to prove to the
American sugar beet grower that the
tariff does not do him any good. This
is what he says: H.. 49,.
"a new development that has been
placed before our legislators is the
fact that in Germany, where the pro-
lection on raw sugar is 47c.. hun
dred and on refined SIC, for the sea-
son of 1912 the farmer received an
average price (aecording to the inn
perial statistics of the German en-
pire) of $500 per long ton for his
sugar beets, in contrast to the aver
age price of $3.50 per short ton in the
United States. In addition to the
price the German farmer received for
his sugar the factory allowed him his
beet seed free of charge where the
American farmer is required to pay
for it, and the German farmer has
returned to him 40 to SO per cent Of
his beet pulp for feeding purposes,
where the factories of the United
States sell this by-product at nice
profit. If further evidence were need
ed to show that the farmer in the
United States does not benefit from
the high tariff on sugar, we have it
