Will Reduce Sugar Price.
an international commission O
five men in connection with the foot
administration is working to lowe
the price of sugar to consumers b,
millions of dollars.
Under the new plans refiners will
obtain their supplies of raw suga
under direction Of the commission
and have agreed to work on a stipu
lated margin between the cost O
raw sugar and the selling price o
, refined. The resultant elimination O
competitive buying is expected t
lower the price to consumers, and t
prevent rapid fluctuations of price
, such as have been experienced sine
1914.
The refiner sells his product t
, the wholesale grocery jobber throug
broker In turn the jobber sells t
!, the retail trade. The margin of pro
fit in each transaction will be limi
ed to an amount representing a res
sonable charge for the services pei
/, formed. 1t will be necessary for tn
, consuming public to see that the
i obtain their sugar at proper pric
: from the retail trade, and the foo
, administration will assist by keepin
: the public posted as to what the n
taller should charge.
