T0WASH.

A committee representing the
Mountain States Beet Growers AS
.sociation left Fort Collins last Sunday
evening for Washington to bring al
Dossible pressure to bear in support OF
their demand for higher prices fo
sugar beets in 1920.
The committee comprised of Presi
dent Fred Cummings of the assOci.
alton of Ft. Collins; Ralph Brennan
Of Fort Morgan, Albert Dakin of
Longmont and President Elliott of the
Nebraska Beet Growers Association
Iefet after wiring Senators Mccormick
and Sherman and Congressman Smith
Wheeler, Mann, Rodenberg and 9th
ers, telling of their coming
The committee expect to remain in
Washington indefinitely or until they
obtain some definite wori from the
Department Of Justice or Federal
Trade commission, to whom the com
mittee will appeal to intervene in the
beet price controversy between the
farmers and the Great Western Sugar
company.
The committee will present the ar
gument that the controversy threat
ems to cause a shortage of beet acre
age and consequently higher sugar
prices to the housewives of the ma
ton. Pledges from planters Of $1,000
acres are carried by the committee, de-
claring that they will not put in an
acre this spring if the sugar company
does not accept the sliding scale of
prices for beets or pay flat price
Of $500 per ton for the 1920 crop.
The sugar company has offered the
growers $1,000 per ton.
The price that the Colorado beet
growers are to receive for their sug-
ar beets Of the 1920 crop Is thus like
" to be settled at Washington. Any
settlement arrived at in this manner
also would become nationwide in
effect, because beet growers in other
states are meeting with the same
controversy. The Mountain States
Beet Growers Association is acting
N mart ~ delegate Of the recently
organized United States Federation Of
Beet Growers.
The Mountain States Beet Growers
Association advises all farmers not
b sign any contract for the growing
Of sugar beets for 1920 on the prices
offered by the sugar companies on
flat rate basis until after the COM
mittee returns from their negotiations
with the officials at Washington.
