M0REY SAYS DEMOCRATS
HAVE NO INTENTION OF
KEEPING SUGAR TARIFF
Tsentlnol Special service. ]

Denver. June &c. S. Morey,
president of the Great Western Sugar
company and other officials of that
concern, have just returned to Dem
yer after making an exhaustive in
vestigation of the condition of the
sugar beet crop in the northern part
of the state. While absent they also
personally investigated the various
sugar plants Of the company and re-
port that both are in good shape and
that the crop of beets far exceeded
their expectation as to yield.
Mr.. Morey says that the prospects
We're never better in that part of the
state and present indications point to
an excellent sugar content Of the
beets which are making rapid
growth, following the recent heavy
rains in that section of Colorado
Touching the recent erroneous
statements in the press dispatches of
an anticipated change in policy Of
the administration regarding duty on
sugar, President Morey makes this
statement:
During my recent trip through
the beet district and the factories in
Northern Colorado. my attention
was called to the fact that recent in
terviews in some of the Colorado
newspapers had stated that 1t was
quite probable the duty which still
romans on sugar and which is to
be removed on May /, 1916, would
not be taken off; that tho Demo
cratic party realized they had made
n mistake. etc. ] think this is very
unfortunate and corrections Of the
mistaken information should be
made The New York Sun of June
12 quotes Messrs. Underwood, Red
field and Simmons as having said em-
phatically that they are opposed to
any change in the present tariff. and
while the revenues Of the govern
meut may not be sufficient now to
meet expenses, business will shortly
revive and revenue increase. They
also stated that the investigation %
/ the sugar beet industry by the hu-
reau Of corporations has nothing
whatever to do with any contemp-
lated change in tho tariff, My own
opinion is that the eastern papers
that started this report were largely
! interested in stoek-jobbing opera-
tions. MS American beet sugar stock
| advanced from 9 cents to % cents
on the strength of that report Such
ststements are very misleading aud
do cur cause great injury
