NEW YORK, March 11.-American
Sugar Refining Co. in its annual report
issued today, showed 1895 net profit OF
$3.50 $50, equivalent after dividends
on the preferred stock, to SO cents a
share on the common stock.
This profit compares with s4,752,353
in 1884, which after preferred divi-
deneds. left balance equal TO 1856 a
share of common stock.
Earl D. Babst. chairman of the
board, in his review of the years op-
erations. asserted that the domestic
sugar refining industry has been
handicapped by the system of sugar
quotas and other features of the Fed
eral plan Of control over the COM
modify.
Concerning the operations of the
quota system he said in part:
The quotas of refined sugar from
Cuba and the insular dependencies
come in without any tariff differen-
tial between refined sugar and raw
sugar and naturally displace conti-
mental cane refners, who have no
tariff protection whatever.
The quotas of raw sugar are so
limited as to prevent the domestic
cane refiners from cooperating for
the recovery of this. their former
business.
These quotas for imports Of refined
sugar have been fixed by the Govern
ment at such a high figure that they
supply one out of every 10 consumers.
In other words, for Government,
through quotas has now granted a
virtual monopoly to insular refiners
to supply the needs of about a tenth
of the population, or about 5000, 900
Americans"
