&VA8MIK0TOK, May 1. A bill aimed at
preventing ipecuHitlon In eucar. which
baa the Approval of th Department of
.lifrtlce, was Introduced In the Hous to
day by Iteprewntatlve Howard (Okla.).
TKe measure prohibits speculative re
fajes of sutrar oinon; large dealers, ex
cept under rules to be prescribed by the
AOorney-Oenerat
The Department of Justice has come
to the. conclusion that additional leslc
feafaon Is necessary to reduce misar
prices, Mr, Howard aald, adding that It

tip.000 fine, two years' Imprisonment, or
both.
jTbere Is no one subject to-day that
IadlEturblnjr the minds of the citizens
of! this country more than the extreme
price and unequal distribution of sugar,"
said Mr. Howard. '"Every family and
cvj:ry person Is Interested. There Is no
doubt that the element of speculation
wrjlch lias entered Into the dealing In
arjl the distribution of this commodity
ha.-: had a very matorlal'cffert In raising
thlt price of It to the consumer.
iTor some time the Department of
JutUce. through the Food Administra
tion and the Attorney-General, lias been
wrestling with this question and making
every effort toward a more equitable dis
tribution and the elimination of specula
tion and the curbing of the profiteer.
a the result of resales within tho trade
The Department of Juatlco has been un
able to meet this situation because cf In
adequate legislation, tno only means now
provided being the licensing system.
With the declaration of peace or the re
peal of war measures, the licensing sys
tem will automatically become obsolete
and of no value. This would leave the
people of tho country entirely at tho
mercy of the sugar speculators.
Tor this and other reasons I have In
troduced to-day a measure seeking to
curb this speculation and to remedy the
handicap under which the Department of
Justice Is now laboring. Tho measure Is
largely the result of tho special effort
the Department of Justice has been and
Is maHin to reirulate the distribution of
and the price of this commodity."

The only reason why Jan Bells,, for
