have paid a dividend, and, taking the
industry as whole, there would have
been three million dollars, on the
wrong side of the account.
There was no available substitute
for sugar if that industry was de-
stroyed. Pineapples made the next
largest industry of the islands, but II
the $4,000 acres of land now in sugar
were planted in pines every man,
woman and child on the mainland
would have to eat pineapples three
times a day to get away with the Ha-
waiian product.
Sugar was the only commodity that
had not shared in the general rise
of prices. 1t was a staple the world
value of which never varied. They
could not label a package OF sugar
"Ewa's Best" and sell it at higher
price than any other sugar, like
"Lipton's Best" tea. Tea imported In
to the. United States at 16 cents
wholesale was retailed at so cents.
The price of sugar to the consumer
would not be reduced by the removal
of the duty. The duty on leather was
abolished to bring down the cost Of
leather goods, yet the price of shoes
had. increased so per cent. So also
with coffee on which there was no
duty. The New York price of coffee
had advanced from about eight cents
to twenty-five cents in the past two
years.
Hawaii raised sugar by the employ
ment of irrigation and fertilization to
degree that the planters of Cuba
and the Philippines would regard as
unthinkable. In Cuba they were
throwing away. sugar in low extrac-
ton to an extent that amounted to
the profit the Hawaiian planters were
making.
One element that entered into the
higher cost of sugar production in Ha-
wall was the necessity of obtaining
European labor in conformity with the
national policy of characterization OF
the islands. Labor cost more in Ha-
vail than in any other tropical coun-
Try. Before annexation the cost OF
raising sugar on Eva, model planta-
ton, was $32 ton. After annexation
it rose to SAT ton, and last year it
was $52 ton.
Mr.. Carter quoted the words of a
prominent Democrat visiting the
islands, who, after seeing the scien-
fife status of the sugar industry here,
both in the factories and the vast irri-
cation works, said that il such enter
prise existed anywhere else it would
be advertised from one end OF the
Union to the other.
