Declaring that it is impossible for the Utah canners to survive if they pay more for tomatoes than the other districts with which they must compete, a statement respecting, the difference between the contract prices of tomatoes offered by the canning companies and the prices sought by the canning crop growers for the 1935 season, was issued Wednesday by the Utah Canners association. The canning companies are offering $12 a ton for first grade and $6 for second, the canning crops growers contending the prices should be $13 a ton for first and $8 for seconds, the statement sets forth. It is maintained by the canners that the average quality of Utah tomatoes delivered by growers under normal growing conditions is 60 per cent for U. S. No. 1 and 35 per cent for U. S. No. 2. This pays the grower $9.79 per ton at the receiving stations. It costs an average of approximately 60 cents per ton for all tonnage purchased to transport tomatoes from the factories. This makes an average price of tomatoes delivered to the factories of $10.39. The canners point out that the greater part of the tomatoes packed in Utah must be sold in competition with tomatoes packed in Indiana, Iowa, Colorado, Missouri, Aransas and Nebraska, where packers are buying their tomatoes at $10 and less per ton, delivered to the factories. The states enumerated are nearer the consuming markets than Utah and have lower freight rates to buyers, and Utah packers, therefore, contend they must sell their product at lower prices to meet such competition, the statement concludes.
