Th. fire had apparently started

GREAT INDUSTRY FORESEEN
On Other Hand, Sa Llxecutive of
A.Mx latlon, All Attempts to Build
Ip Important Industry Will
Halt If Measure Pnse.
WASHINGTON, March 5. The beet
sugar producers of the country entered
a protest Monday with the ways and
means committee of the House against
the free sugar bill, asserting that its
adoption would destroy their business
and at the same t i rr b&. a complete
victory for the big Katern reflnorH,
who would have a practical monopoly
under It. The protest, addressed tc
Chairman Underwood and signed by C.
A. Hamlin, chairman of the executive
committee of the United States Beet
Sugar industry, representing 10 per
cent of the producers, said in part:
"The passagn of such a bill would
mean the confiscation not alone of the
hundred million dollars Invested In
beet sugar factories, but probably of
as much more directly or indirectly
dependent upon the beet sugar busi
ness. "It would take away from the Ameri
can farmers the .30.000.000 which they
receive annually from the beet crop
and destroy an Industry which prom
ised more as an adjunct to Intensive
f irming and scientific agriculture than
any other ever established In this
country.
"The statement that free sugar will
save the American consumer 1 1 cents
per pound will not prove out. as the
effective duty today Is less than that
amount.
"Your statement that free sugar
would not destroy the domestic Indus
try Is erroneous and seems to be predi
cated on the evidence adduced before
the Hurdwlrk committee. Are you
aware that the Independent producers
of beet sugar were denied a hearing
before that committee?
'if this industry is to be destroyed.
and Jt will be under the proposed bill.
It should only be done after a full
hearing and with complete knowledge
of tha facts.
"Anything short of this is connsca-
tlon pure and simple."
In a statement mane toaay at Mil
waukee before a conference of beet
sugar manufacturers by Air. Hamlin,
he declared that the defeat of this bill
will mean the Investment during the
next five years of at least IJ3.0OO.0uO
In new factories in all parts .of the
country, with an added expenditure uf
o, 000.000 a year In payments to farm-
era who raise sugar oeeis ior mesa
factories.
'If the tariff is cut the beet sugar
men will be obliged to abandon all at
tempts to extend the Industry and the
farmer, who now sell sugar beeta as
one of their most Jreurttable crops will
be forced to accept cut prices or stop
beet raising.
"Heel sugar is now produced In 16
states," said Mr. Hamlin, "and were
it not for tariff uncertainties, the in
dustry would be extended rapidly. I
know at least of half a dozen facto
ries that would be built at once were
stable conditions established for the
next few years.
"The people generally are wholly Ig
norant of the sources of these attacks.
The agitation Is wholly inspired by the
New York refiners and Importers of
foreign raw sugar, who see their busi
ness menaced by the competition of
beet sugar the Interests usually
known as the 'sugar trust.'"
