Sugar price in Cuba to rise for 1919-20 crop

Havana Aug. 5. Cuba may see higher sugar prices for the 1919-20 crop than the U S equalization board figure. A House resolution would permit presidential intervention in sugar and tobacco buying selling and export to secure a remunerative price for mill owners and planters. It would also allow a duty up to 50 per cent ad valorem or a 100 per cent rise in customs on Cuban raw materials or finished goods. The law would run until Dec 1 1920. No action tonight. Planters favor forming a controlling committee and oppose government control. Rumors say Americans may bid to take over the crop at higher prices. A planter reports a bid of 10 000 tons for January delivery at seven cents a pound with cash on the spot.
