Sugar policy and Rockefeller death dominate Washington talk
Washington column discusses the permanent sugar bill and federal policy shaping U S commerce. It notes Roosevelt's proposal, AAA maps, import quotas, Cuba and Hawaii roles, and the need to protect refiners while aiding consumers, with a biographical note on John D Rockefeller Sr and Russian Arctic flight plans.
Sugar imports vs US refining industry under price rise
The piece argues RTI and its effects on American workers as imports of refined sugar from Cuba rose from 1925 to 1933, shrinking domestic refining. It urges Congress to set import quotas to protect cane and beet growers and preserve a two-hundred-year-old industry, while noting policy clashes among the executive departments. It links rising prices to New Deal measures and labor demands, warning of a 1929-like tailspin if unchecked.
