Rise, in Price
Of Sugar Denied

Minneapolis, July 22.-There can
be no change in the price of sugar
before the first of the year, and there
is no need for the consumer to be-
come panicstricken and rush to buy
up sugar to be boarded against a
probable shortage, sugar brokers
have announced. F. ID. Southall, of
Earle & Bend, sugar brokers, was
told of a price increase rumor.
According to the present contract
with Cuba, which the United States
equalization board of the food ad-
ministration holds, there can be no
change in the price of sugar before
the first of the year." said Mr.
Southall. THE board contracted fol
the entire cane crop of Cuba for the
last year, and this will be sufficient
to supply sugar for the United States
until the beet sugar arrives in Octo
Der.
Under this contract il is impos
sible to have any change in the price
of sugar"

Labor AgitatOrs
Cause Trouble

Mitchell, July 22.-The first clash
between the sabotage exponents in
the labor field and the superinten-

reau occurred here. when Jas. Peter
son, charged with fostering discon-
tent among the hundreds of harvest
hands who are seeking employment
from the Mitchell labor office, struck
Superintendent Cochran in the mouth
after Cochran had forcibly elected
him from the office. Peterson was
arrested but the court sustained his
plea of self defense and dismissed
the case.
Peterson is only one of a number
of agitators who have been trying to
keep harvest hands from accepting
employment at SIS day and board
He and his associates have prevented

While this average carries true in

ICES in fifty counties, it will be $780,
600; and this will provide an ample
fund, even with thirty remaining
days of possibly destructive hail on
unharvested crops. The whole COM
pulsory feature was opposed by
members from the southeastern part
of the state on the ground that they
never had any hail. 1t was largely
at their instance that the exemption
feature was made as broad as it was,
and every one of those counties has
suffered heavy hail loss this sum
mer, while in many counties where
it is the expected thing, not single
loss has been reported.
