URGES BUYING I OF BEET SUGAR I Residents Os Indiana, Ohio And Michigan Urged To Buy — 1 " i Saginaw, Mich., Oct. 7. (Spec- , ial) "Tile purchasing powef of i thousands of tanner* in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana will be Increased by hundreds of thousands of dollar* this year if the people of the three states will demand and use beet sugar grown and made in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana,'' de- i dared Arthur A. Schupp, executive secretary of the Farmers and ; Manufacturers beet sugar asso- \ elation, in an interview today. “The harvesting of the 1936 i sugar beet crop is now well underway." continued Mr. Schupp, “and every beet sugar factory, scheduled to operate this year in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, will be operat- ( ing on a 24-hour a day schedule be- 1 fore the end of this week.” When asked If beet sugar is now , available. Mr. Schupp replied, "beet ( sugar is obtainable throughout the | year, the processors having adopted the practice of marketing their j .annual sugar production over a 12- | month period. Sugar from the 1936 i sugar beet crop is now on sale in , many cities and within the next few days every grocer in Michigan, | Ohio, and Indiana will he able to j supply his trade with beet sugar , produced from this year’s beet | . crop. I, Commenting on how the people | in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana . ,| could increase the purchasing pow- , ■, er of the farmers. Mr. Schupp said, ( : “The contract, under which sugar beets are grown, provides that the farmers are to receive one-half of, the net cash return from the sale of the sugar extracted from their |i beets. It follows, therefore, that 1 if large quantities of sugar have; to find a market at distant points, the net cash return is necessarily decreased. If. on the other hand,' I i the people of Michigan, Ohio and ; Indiana rally to the support of the farmers by buying and using beet ■ • sugar, grown and made in the ! ! three states, the farmers' net cash . return per ton of sugar beets will . . be materially increased. In short, ' by supporting their home sugar industry, the people can increase the . purchasing power of the farmers . by hundreds of thousands of dolII lars, without increasing the cost . of sugar to themselves, the in-
