FACING THE FACTS !,

stockholders. 1t is estimated that the total divi-
dends TO be paid this year will be Cnly 40 per
cent of those paid last year, and liz many IN
stances will be paid from surplus earnings car
ried over from previous years. The STOCKHOLM
ers will therefore be the first and most direct
sufferers In many cases it will mean the entire
loss of dividends.
CAN THE COST OF PRODUCING AND
MARKETING SUGAR BE REDGCED?s
Three items enter into cost price: 1, Cost of
materials; p Labor expense; 3, Marketing
charges.
Cost of materials As Hawaii has to buy
practically all its supplies abroad, its only OPP
ton is to pay prices asked or go without the
goods. Obviously little saving can be effected
here unless prices decline, something the expe-
rience of the last ten years does not promise.
Marketing crpease Hawaii is obliged to ship
i'm American vessels With no American mer-
chant marine worthy the name, there is no COM
petition in carrying rates, and the only hope ls
a possible reduction in charges on the opening
of the Panama canal. How much this reduction
will be is problematical.
Labor erpense. Fully onehalf of sugar cost
is labor expense Nominal and real wages are
admittedly higher in Hawaii than anywhere in
the world for similar work This has been pos
sible here because of prosperous times the plan
tations sharing their prosperity with the labor
ers.
Last year the base-rate of wages for day labor
was raised nearly 10 per cent and profit-shar-
ing system adopted whereby laborers, other than
special contractors or planters, received bonus
on yearly earnings. This bonus was per cent
of yearly earnings for every dollar the average
price of sugar exceeded $1,000 per ton.f Last
years average price was $s3S3 and the laborers
received Is per cent bonus To laborers receiv-
ing $4,000 or less per month this amounted to
$685., 9sssS .43
The present price of sugar indicates that
there will be little, if any, bonus due at the end
Of the present year. To May 31st, it amounted
to per cent Lowered prices would eliminate
this, and higher prices increase it.
Some reduction in salaries, wages, and con-
tract rates will have to be made if the planta-
tions are to remain in existence in the opinion
of many conyersant with the situation
While some few still believe that Hawaiis
sslucky star" will carry her through, most know
that the situation is a serious one and that rad
zeal steps must be taken to avert disaster Plan
tations cannot continue to sell sugar at less than
cost, and in the reimbursement both stockholders
and employees must bear their share 1t is up to
the sugar experts in Hawaii to solve the difficult
ty and their degree of success will be measured
by the equity with which they distribute the bur-
den to be borne

Even the New York Journal of Commerce,
which hates the political standpatter as the devil
is commonly reputed to hate holy water, refers
to the sugar item in the tariff bill as grave
mistake. Unfortunately, the Democratic leaders
put appeals to party regularity above appeals
from the people.
