During the las two weeks some of
this sugar has been shipped, but new
stock received is said to offset this.
No account is taken in the assessors

With more than 100000 pounds
of sugar stored in Omaha ware
houses, the price has been boosted
from 6 to 10 cents pound retail to
housewives on the plea that no sugar
was to be had.
The accumulated stocks of the
great table necessity are said to be as
large, if not larger, than they were
at this time last year. The price
then was 1910 cents per pound.
Official figures show there were
l49,73l bags in storage April /, This
at 100 pounds to the bag makes a
total of l4,975,l00 pounds-75 pounds
for every man, woman and child and

Armed with reliable information
that this vast tonnage of necessary
food article was being boarded, The
Bee enlisted the services of County
Assessor Fitzgerald and his chief
deputy. Harry e. Counsman. to ascer-
tain the quantity and whefe and by
whom it was being held.
Every warehouse and store room
in Omaha was visited by the officials
