produce good sugar at cheap rates,
they should be allowed to do so.
Quota $4,000 Tons.
In Florida, under the Sugar Re-
striction Act, the farmers have been
allowed to produce and sell approXi-
mately $4,000 tons year. This is
not even enough sugar to feed the
people of Florida, not to mention
the rest of the country Yet it has
been estimated that Florida could
produce 100000 tons of cane sugar
if given the chance-and produce it
well and cheaply.
Senator Andrews and Representa-
tive Peterson have introduced iden-
tical bills in their respective houses
which would amend the sugar act
by giving the growers of sugar any,
where in continental United States
the right to decide for themselves
whether they wish to continue under
the restricted and benefited program,
or whether they wish to go it on
their own. This legislation would
not take away from the sugar pro-
ducers who wish to keep on with
the Government benefit payments,
and to agree to restrict their acre
age, it IS explained. For them the
act would operate without change.
Under the law the Government
pays, as benefits. to sugar growers
so cents per hundred pounds. with
the scale graduated down to 35
cents for the larger producers, pro-
vided they live within the allotments
and restrictions set by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. The penalties
are so heavy that they have no
other course. If the producers 20
beyond their quotas. the sugar is
subject to confiscation and the
growers open to a fine three times
the value of the sugar There are
similar market allotment penalties.
The Government collects a process
ing tax on sugar in this country.
amounting to so cents a hundred
pounds.
Sees Many Families ImperiIed.
The ploWing under of 5000 acres
Of sugar cane in Florida. now or
dered by the Secretary of Agricul-
ture, will result, Senator Andrews
says, in the discharge of about 500
heads of families now employed in
the Florida sugar industry. He in
siStS that these workers are among
the highest paid on any agricultural
project in the United States. They
will no longer be needed for sugar
cultivation and harvesting if the
acreage curtailment stands. Out
they will go, and no one seems to
know what they will do.
The sugar producers of Florida
are not alone in the matter of crop
curtailment under the orders of the
department this year. Further re-
striction of crops in Louisiana and
for the beet sugar producers in other
parts Of the country have gone or
are going into effect.
Supporters of the Andrews-P Peter
son bills insist that it will not inter-
fere with the administration of the
sugar act Of 1887, and they point out
that the proposed legislation does
not become effective until 1910. The
Secretary of Agriculture. they say,
has not yet made his estimates for
1910, and before he begins his cal
culations he will know the producers
in this country who will not apply
for benefits and how much sugar
they will produce. The administra-
ton of the act, they argue, would be
Simplified.
