Henry Havemeyer of the American Sugar Refining Company testified before the Industrial Commission, attacking the tariff as the mother of trusts. He argued sugar protection is excessive and benefits Louisiana cane growers, Hawaiian growers, and beet sugar makers, urging an internal revenue tax on sugar. He claimed the trust refineries could expand, and that capital and labor would adjust if left alone, noting the refinery capacity and market share. He mentioned stockholders numbering about 11,000 and referenced Cuba as a potential target for stock expansion.
