Beet Growers Seek Favorable Legislation Expansion of Beets
Salt Lake City December 7 AP Leaders of the National Beet Growers association plan a determined push for legislation to aid the sugar beet industry. VP J R Rawlins said executives will meet with the congressional sugar bloc in Washington to draft proposals. They call for a reestablished quota system with a processing tax, a profitable administered act, no tariff reduction on Cuban sugar, but a cut in Cuba’s quota, and a reasonable wage scale. They oppose broad tariff cuts and urge limiting Cuban imports while allowing normal growth and reduced imports to balance prices and employment.
