lodged before the senate finance
committee today by representatives,
of American sugar producers who
called the plan ;un American, .
"price fixing and "a stimulation

all scales.
He favored the late three cents

THE object of any sliding scale
is to tend to fix prices Dilling-
ham said. ''Such practice would
be harmful to any industry because
it restraints free trade and removes
the stimulus which inspires the pro-

Edgar II. Stone. vice president
Of the Spreekels Sugar Corp. argued
IN favor OF the Spreckels sliding
