The Devils Lake world and inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, N.D.) 1915-1920, 1916-03-30

The promoters of the monopoly de-
clare that their one purpose is to
benefit the "poor planters" of Yucca
tan. Their own testimony shows that
while the poems, or day laborers, may
have been receiving small wages,
many of the Yucatan planters are very
wealthy. The entire sisal crop of Yu-
catan is raised by about 200 planter.
It's annual value is approximately $780,
100000.
The monopoly's attack on the Inter-
national Harvester Company are made
merely to divert attention from the
actual facts and to deceive the Amer
ican farmer and the public generally.
1t was charged at the hearing that
the Company had financed a revolu-
tion in Yucatan. Mr.. Cyrus H. Nc
Cormick, President of the Harvester
Company destroyed that falsehood
with an explicit public denial.
It was charged that the Harvester
Company had attempted to intimidate
certain banks from participating in
this monopoly, and that it had closed
it's account with one such bank. The
officials of this bank themselves deny
the charge. =.
! 1t was charged that an official of
,, the Harvester Company had left the
country to- avoid testifying. This
falsehood was promptly disposed of by
the statement of the Chairman of the
Investigating committee that the wit
ness referred to had left the country
on business, with the Chairan's
knowledge and consent. He has since
returned and is ready to testify when
called.
When the hearing is resumed, fur
ther evidence will be presented refut-
ing these and other like charges and
insinuations. officials of the Har.
vester: CT. "a, noe Of whom has
yet been heard, will then have q
chance to testify, and it is probable
that representatives of other twine
manufacturers, as we'll as of farmers
organizations, will tell of the effects o1
the sisal monopoly.
The issue before the Investigating
Committee has been rather adroitly
confused by false and sensational
charges, so as to keep the American
farmer from finding out that the real
controversy is between himself arc
the Yucatan monopoly. Whateve,
amount the monopoly adds to the price
of sisal, the twine manufacturers must
add to the price of binder twine--al
the increase necessarily comes out o1
the farmer. No matter what the
Committee may recommend, or what
Congress may do, the manufacturers
cannot make twine without reasona.
BILE profit. Sisal is the chief item oil
cost, and the price of binder twine is
fixed by the cost Of the fiber.
! Therefore, It is the farmers, and not
