Public victory seen as sugar antitrust ends court case
Attorney General Daugherty approved a decree to finally end the long antitrust suit against American Sugar Refining Company. The decree restricts the company from influencing major refiners and asserts that competition will govern future sugar prices. It notes the company now holds about 24 percent control, down from 72, and aims to restore free market conditions for cane and beet sugar across the United States.
