(I. S. TO HANDLE
ALL SUGAR SALES
Every pound of sugar held by re
finers, beet or cane sugar producer,
either In stock or In transit, on a cer
tain date to be announced later, will
be bought by the United States Gov
ernment and then sold back' to its
original holders at the price of the
new crop. The price to the original
holders will be higher, so as to
equalize the sugar market and pre
vent two prices, such as existed last
year.
The consumer, however, will have
to pay an additional cent a pound,
perhaps a little more, but the profits
of the transaction. Instead of coins to
the refiners, will -be absorbed by the
Government. The United states
equalization board will control the
transfer.
The food administration has not
decided the exact date at which the
new price will become effective. The
present margin of J1.30 a hundred
pounds will be Increased to $1.45.
retroactive to August 1. The In
creased margin of profit allowed the
refiners is based on an increased
cost per unit due to a shorter sup
ply of raw sugars.
