U. S. RE ULATES
SALE OF SUGAR
Dealers Permitted to Offer 1t
In Combination With
Other Articles
PRESENT FAIR
PRICE is II CENTS

Retailers may require customers to
buy other goods in order 10 obtain a
pound Of sugar, under a ruling just
made by United States District Attor-
ney Charles F. Curley.
The district attorney has announced
that after interviews with a number Of
retailers as well as consumers, he had
concluded that II combination sales OF
sugar with Oticr commodities were
prohibited, the actual distribution OF
sugar would be narrowed and that in
dlvidual family boarding would be en-
oouraged. With this conclusion, the
Department OF Justice is in accord. Mr.
Curley has issued the following rule for
guidance Of dealers:
"The retailer may require the con
sumer 10 purchase other goods before
securing sugar, provided that the price
OF other goods required 10 be purchased
does not exceed sixty cents t60c) for
each two pounds OF sugar. and pro-
vlded the customer Is left free IN his
choice OF the other goods required 10
be purchased
All attempts by a retailer 20 evado
the rule by unduly increasing prices
on the other goods required TO be pur-
chased. or by debating 10 the GUS
toner what other goods must be pur-
chased, will be regarded as unfair
practices and Will be prosecuted. Tho
present reasonable price for white
sugar Is Il cents per pound and FOR
brown sugar "a cents per pound. Where
prices greater than these are charged
the retailer Will be compelled TO show
that the actual cost 10 him was such
as TO make tho price charged the Gus
toner a reasonable one"
