Washington, Jan. 31-While the
justice department today denied that
sugar profteers were escaping pun
ishment, Senator McNary of Oregon.
declared that evidence of enormous
profits were being made in sugar run
ming as high as 100 per cent in some
cases, had been received from several
sources.
Assistant U. S. Attorney General
F1gg, in charge of pushing the gov
ernment's campaign to reduce living
costs, announced that in the last sixty
days, 10 criminal cases have been
started against sugar profiteers. These
resulted, he said, from approximately
800 Investigations of alleged profiteer-
ing cases. Figg predicted a drop in
sugar prices.
McNary said today he had written
the department of justice about the
proflteering situation. Fresh evil
dence." he said, comes to my office
every day"
With regard to commerce depart
ment reports, carried yesterday by
the United Press, indicating that dur
ing December sugar at 81 cents a
pound was exported from the United
States to foreign countries. Figg
said that this was Cuban sugar bought
by foreign governments. The United
States, government, he said, failed to
buy up the Cuban crop this wear.
leaving American refiners to buy at
any price demanded by Cuban grow
