Refiners Lift Sugar Price In Boston Market
An increase in sugar prices was reported as American Sugar Refinery set wholesale price at 201-2 cents per pound. Revere Refinery quotes were unavailable as they were out of the market. Wholesalers cited shortages and oversold stocks with retailers facing varying prices from 22 cents upward. Authorities may soon enforce federal anti profiteering laws as DoJ agents and the Commission on the Necessaries of Life pursue violators.
