IMPORT TAXON
COFFEE BOON TO
GROWERS HERE
viii Mean About $50, 600 Per
Year More, Based on Esti-
mate of 1913 Crop

Hawaii coffee growers will get al.
most $150,O0 a year more for their
crop than they now do il the propos.
ed import duty OF three cents pound
on coffee is made effective by Con-
gress, as one of the means contem-
plated to raise the money necessary
to maintain tbs government in the
coming fiscal year.
Local wholesale grocery men In
touch with the coffee situation said
today that based on the crop of 1913,
when between $4,000 and $4,000 sacks
were produced in the islands of this
territory, the proposed duty, If it rails
ed mainland coffee prices three cents
a pound, would increase the returns
on coffee shipped to the states, $4,000
bags. by approximately $135.00O.
Year before last the crop of coffee
was between $1,000 and 5000 sacks.
From this 10000 sacks should be de
Quoted, as that amount is consumed
on the islands.
This leaves between $4,000 and A..
600 bags for shipment to the main.
land. At three cents pound, $1,000
bags weighing at 100 pounds to a
bag, 100000 pounds, and entering
the states without the import duty,
would bring growers $135 900 more
than If the duty ON foreign grown cof-
fee were not effective.
This years crop, however, accord.
ing to wholesale coffee dealers here,
is much smaller than the 1913 output.
1t is estimated that the total coffee
crop Of the islands for this year Will
not be more than 25 900 or 10000 bags.
From this has to be deducted the TO-.
900 bags consumed locally. This
would leave only 10000 bags at most
for shipment to the mainland, so that
II the import duty OF three cents a
pound were effective now, the increase
would amount to $50, 600.
