Sugar Prices Peak Seen by Industry Veteran

Financial Editor's Notes quotes Edward F. Atkins of American Sugar Co predicting a peak in sugar prices and a gradual decline due to increased production. He argues refiners can profit in a falling market with skill, while manufacturers suffer margins through inventory carry and high fixed costs. The note also highlights rising federal taxes in Boston, showing tax income soaring from 9.17 million in 1914 to 350.93 million in 1920, squeezing the business sector.
