said KisseI and the directors and Of
ficers of the American Sugar Rein
ing Company, or any Of them, or said
company, prevented the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining Company from engag-
ing in interstate or foreign trade and
commerce in raw or refined sugar
THE answer AYERS that the only
connection which the American had
with the organization of the National
Sugar Refining Company of New Jer-
sey was that the American authorized
its treasurer, as an investment to
purchase preferred stock in said com
pany upon its organization to the par
value of S1,25O,O0O out of total par
value of $1O,OOOOOO Of preferred stock
and to exchange the stock heretofore
held by the American Sugar Refining
Company in the Mollenhauer Sugar
Refining Company for preferred stock
of the National upon the same terms
as those obtained by other preferred
stockholders of the Mollenhauer. Its
purchase and exchange resulted in the
acquisition Of $5,12S,OuO of the pre-
ferred stock Of the National Sugar Re
fning Company. Containing the an
swer states:
From the time of its organization
! the National Sugar Refining Company
carried on the most active and con
tinuous competition with the Amer
/ can Sugar Refining Company and
many of its subsidiaries"
Concerning the issue of 100000
shares Of common stock which were
delivered to Fl. 0. Havemeyer the
| American company's answer says that
it was not a party to this issue and
that the transaction was in no way
connected with the American com
pany
Regarding the trusts investment in
beet sugar companies the answer says
in part;
These defendants aver that at all
times since defendant, the American
company. became interested in the
various beet sugar companies re
ferred to, it has aided the develop
ment Of the beet sugar industry IN
every possible manner. and that the
beet sugar companies in which the
American company is interested
many of which would never have been
started in business without the tinan
cial and technical assistance of the
American company, produced in 1910
over 273,O0O tons, or about TAB pei
cent of the total consumption of re-
fined sugar in the United States"
The answer states that the Ameri
can company has very largely reduced
its holdings in beet sugar stocks, the
sales including S75OO,OOO Of American
Beet Sugar Company stock and all Of
the stock of the Carver County Sugar
Company.

After fifteen years experience in the

thought which occurs to me concerning 1t

Particularly is this true with respect to
those who have been in the national guard

phere for a considerable period. Seli-sac-

PLAN A PERPETUAL CALENDAR
All Nations to Unite In Working Out
an Idea Long In Minds Of
Many.

A conference of all nations will be
held next summer at Geneva, Switzer-
land. to discuss suggestions for an In
ternational perpetual calendar. At that
time Leroy S. Boyd will present his
calendar which has 19 months Of 2S
days each, making total Of 1854 days
In the year The S65th day Is not in
cluded in any month, but viii precede
the first day Of January and will be
called New Years day. A similar ar
rangement is made for leap years. The
366th day Is not counted in any month,
but follows the last day Of December
and Is called Leap Year day. The adj
ditional month is called Solaris, and
comes between June and July. AS an
illustration, the year 1916 is used, be-
cause, according to the present calen-
dar the first day Of that year viii be-
gin on Saturday, which would become
New Years day under the perpetual
calendar. That would make the fol-
lowing day. Sunday, be known as Jan.
/, 1915 Every month would have the
same number Of days and every month
and every week would begin on Sun
day and end on Saturday That would
make the same date in each month
fall on the same day Of the week.
Such a perpetual calendar would make
1t unnecessary to have q printed cal
endar for every month, because the
days Of each month are identical with
those Of the first month. One Of the
benefits expected to result from a per-
petual calendar is that It will facill-
tate business calculations. Under the
new system month will mean ex-
aetly 2S days and not 80 or 81 days,
as at present
