Shortage of Sugar Raises Retail Prices (Continued from Page 1) each month to get an average market, as it is impossible to out guess the future market price. Amalgamated’s President A. E Benning was quoted in the May 23 issue of the Wall Street Jour nal as saying, “I think prices will strengthen beyond what they are now and will continue to hold through at least September 1964." Should this prediction be cor rect, local growers can expect to get a big increase in their pay ments on the 1962 and 1963 crops Past Price* Stable Retail prices for granulated su gar have shown very slow in creases since the establishment of the local factory in 1938 They remained in the 5-6 cent class until September 1946 when they reached 7*£ cents and went to 9 cents in October. They stayed near this level until 1951 when a 10-cent price was reached. This went to 11 cents in 1957 and has remained near that figure until the big jump this spring. Present Crop Looks Good Zobell said the beet thinning is done, the crop looks good and acreage is about the same as last year. He said the factory was able to handle 10 to 15 percent more than contracted this year and with the price situation being so favorable and the possibility of less wheat being planted he looks for acreage to move upward.
