NO NEW ORLEANS REFINERY 



Louisiana sugar planters will not or- 

 ganize a $40,000,0(10 corporation for tlv.- 

 establishment of a planters' refinery in op- 

 position to the sugar trust, despite asser- 

 tions to that effect made since suits to 

 break the trust were filed in the Federal 

 Court. 



The Louisiana planters say they will not 

 be able to compete with the sugar planters 

 of Cuba when the free sugar act becomes 

 effective in l\Iay, 1916. It has been inti- 

 mated that the last crop will be made by 

 the Louisiana planters, the beet sugar 

 growers of the West, and the growers in 

 the Hawaiian Islands and in Porto Rico in 

 1914. After that the sugar crop will be 

 subject to the free sugar act provisions and 

 this, the local planters say, will prevent 

 them from competing with the sugar inter- 

 ests of Cuba. 



The price of the 1915 crop, they hold, 

 will be discounted on the base of free sugar. 

 The Louisiana planters say it will be im- 

 possible for them to dispose of their crop at 

 the same price that the Cuban planters can 

 grow and market their product. It is 

 pointed out that the Cuban crop delivered 

 in January, 1914, can be had for $1.84 a 

 hundred pounds, plus the duty which wi'.l 

 be removed entirely in 1916 under the pro- 

 visions of the free sugar act.
