Ne. 18 THE ADVANCE Iff THE PRICE OF SUGAR The local sensation of the last ten days, and perhaps the most talked of event of the year, was the wholesale advance in the price of Bugar. Indeed there was so much talk about it that the federal offices at Salt Lake City woke up and wired Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer concerning the matter, and that official ordered an investigation, which is now being made In the meantime Merrill Nibley, assistant manager of the Utah-Idah- o Sugar company was placed under arrest on a charge of violating the Le- ver act, the law paused by congress to prevent profiteering. .Mr. Nibley has been released on a bond of $5000 pending the action of the courts. A is usually the case, the public is loud in the condemnation of the sugar company, and were it not for some extenuating facts the condemnation would be justified. The sugar company claims, and it is a fact with which most people are familiar, that the product of their factories, much of which has been sold for less'jhan $10. per hundred pounds, has been selling all over the country at from twenty to thirty cents per pound, with little or no protest from the government, Louisiana, Cuban and Island Bugar were also selling at a greatly advanced price over the beet product. The government officials do not deny these js facts, but claim the Lever Act pro- - E hibits other than a reasonable profit j and does not seek to establish stan dard prices. In other words, it sems, under the ruling of the Attorney General's office, the price of any food comodity shall be fixed by the cost of production, plus the handling coBt. The ruling seems to work out some- thing like this; The sugar company is allowed a reasonable profit, say a E dollar a bag; the jobber is allowed reasonable profit, say a dollar a bag; the retailer is allowed a reasonable profit, say about two dollars a bag. Now this would see all very well were it not for the question of first cost- - the cost of manu- . facture which is not just the same in all sugar factories. Some factories EE make sugar for less than nine cents while others claim their cost, for a term of years, is about nineteen cents EE per pound. Under the same ruling the retail price of imported sugar EE could be almost any price, all depend- - EE ing on the cost of production and the EE number of hands it may have passed I EE through, but no matter how high the price of imported or southern sugar, EE it seems that our beet sugar manu-- 1 EE facturers must keep down their sell- - E ing prices or be prosecuted. This pro- - EE position is juBt as hard to meet as EE taking Rocky Mountain wheat at three EE cents per pound, or there about, and EE forcing the western wheat producer to EE pay five cents per pound for eastern com. Then the war was on, the people of the west were loyal and to the discrimination. To day it is different The war is over and the people of the west, along with the EE sugar manufacturers want and feel EE they are entitled to just as good a price for his produce as is received by I EE the foreigner and the producer in other EE parts of the country. In the meantime, no action has be-EE taken against the parties making about 400 per cent on potatoes stored I EE in Salt Lake City and other cities, last EE fall. It seems that another peculiarity of the Lever Act is that it not EE I apply to speculators or middle men. ZZ Why cant we have a law, or a EE ruling on a law, which will prohibit J profiteering and 'at the same time I EE treat all the people alike, at least all I those people engaged in the same line EE of business! EE It would be well to wait a while be- - EEE fore condensing the sugar company I EE unconditionally. Up to this time the beet sugar men have been easy money for the middle man and speculator; eautifuf New Silks eginning Monday Mornin 1 i jS' Price Reductions in Effect Throughout This Sale. s i Mark it as the Foremost Silk Event of the Season .
