Show SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1924 AMERICAN FORK CITIZEN 'V- SATURDAY, AUGUST 16. 1 j County and General News FAItM INTERESTS SOLID FOR PRESET JT SU GAR DUTY New York, August 11. Reports to PACTS ABOUT SUGAR show that the agricultural Interests of the coun try are lining up solidly against any reduction In the tariff on sugar such as la reported to nave been re com mended -to the- President!)? three members of the Tariff Commission. The American Farm Bureau Fede ration, state farm bureaus, the International Inter-national Farm Congress, the American Ameri-can Dairy Federation, the Mountain States Beet Growers Association and similar organisations In other section sec-tion hare gone on record with for coal resolutions or by letter and tele-grama tele-grama of protest addressed to the President in opposition to any lower tug -of the import duty on foreign grown sugar. There are several reasons why the farm organizations1 are making an Issue Is-sue of this matter. They recognise the duty on sugar as one of the few tariff schedules that is of any protection protec-tion to the farmer. Tariffs on commodities commo-dities of which the country produce a surplus do not help him because the price is flied in the export market In the case of sugar, however, the United States Imports more than half Hi total supply and consequently the Import doty on the foreign product means that the American producer receives re-ceives o much more for his output, Inasmuch as payment for his crop la based on the market price of sugar. The Tariff Commissions Investigation Investiga-tion shows that the difference la the expense of producing sugar in the Trolled States and Cuba is alost entirely' en-tirely' In the agricultural costs and that the American farmer receives for the raw material required to produoe a pound of sugar a sum that exceeds the price received by the Cuban cane grower by more than the amount of the tariff, so that he gets the full benefit bene-fit of the duty charged against the foreigner. Investigations of the tost of various manufactured articles have resutled in Increases of tariff rates land the agricultural organlsaUona are lnferestei rn BeUrmlrirog Whether the same course or a different one la to be followed .-where he farmer's in terests are at stake. Another reaeon why the farm organizations or-ganizations are keenly following the sugar case is because the precedent et by the Tariff Commission in re gard to sugar may work to the dlsad tage of the farm, interests tn other cases that are now pending or may coma before the Commission. At the present time there are three cases under investigation which directly af fect the farmers of the country those relating to butter, casein and vegetable oil, tn the sugar case It is alleged that the report on which the Get Your LEVI STRAUSS - for Both Men and Boys Waist and Bib at ROYAL CLOTHING STORE IL 0.
