NINE CENT SUGAR
According to press dispatches published a few days
;io millions of -pounds of sugar have recently been brought
into the United States at Chicago from Canada and is be
ing sold to big canneries and other large consumers at from
nine to nine and one'half cents per pound. This sugar, ac
cording to the published reports was produced in Cuba,
shipped from there to Kngland and after occupying space
in some Knglish warehouse for several months was shipped
to Canada and from there to Chicago.
.Sugar experts say that with this sugar selling at whole.
sale at 9 to cents per pound the ultimate consumer i. e.
the common, ordinary person in these good, old U. S. A.
should be getting his sweetening at from 11 to 12 cents a
pound from the retail stores, and it doesn't look as though
it should require much of an expert to figure that out.
just why sugar shipped direct to the United States
....should cost the consummer 18 cents more per pound than
u ooVh wncn Mtrpped via - -:uludu - as noi bccn
.v'-'l "lU ' inu "l't'rts" or it has not been made public.
noi4 .'.ave the common dubs been wised up to the why and
wherefore of sugar heing sold to big consumers at 9 cents
and to small Consumers at 27 cents. There is evidently
JitiHlcllinig rotten about this sugar situation and it isn't
necessarily in Denmark either.
During the war if some poor devil was found with an
extra pound or so of sugar stowed away in a dark corner
of his kitchen cupboard lijr was belittled as a pro-( icrman, a
Bolshevik and was sometimes sent to jail. What then
should be done to the big fellows who are now manipulat
ing the sugar market for their own gain?

It is the smug who are continually in the turmoil of
their error, who order sandwiches and cigars from the
guest of the evening, who are lul'ty or patronizing in the

criterion of social position. To be smug, according to
Noah Webster and other lexicographers, is to quality as "a
self complacent and ostentatiously proper person." It is a
great pity that social reforms summons so many of these.
The current idiom tor the sort is "Uiiichcad." So and bv
