THE SUGAR HOLDUP
We have strenuous laws against
highway and train robberies, against
store, dwelling and bank robberint.

In fact you mud have a
little more respect for the highway
man than for the merchant. The

The sugar refiner arbitrarily adds
10 to 15 rents per pound without
aiding one cent to the intrinsic value
of the sugar.
Congress is to blame for not en
acting preventive measures.
