HENRY ST, GOAR
SEES NO SIGNS
OF PRICE SLUMP
Says if Peace Were Made To-
morrow Sugar Would Stay
at Good Profitable Level

Henry st. Goar, discussing recently
the advances and declines in the price
Of raw sugar and its average high lev
ell, told a representative of the San
Francisco Chronicle that the market
must be guided by the shortage In the
European crop, estimated, on the basis
of latest statistics, as 100000 tons
below the 1914-15 crop. Continuing,
he said:
This clearly explains the reason
for the high prices ruling in the raw
sugar market at the presnt time, and
also indicates that the crops of the
Hawaiian islands, as well as the beet
sugar crop of the United States, will
undoubtedly obtain the same average
price as they have during the season
just finished. Furthermore, should
peace be declared within the next six
months, the raw sugar market would
not suffer to any great extent de-
probation in prices"

Reports were current in the finan-

McCarn Sends
Out S. O. S. For
One Lost Ticket

"The Missing Ticket, or How JEFF
McCarn Nearly Became Stowaway''
would be good title for movie YER
sion Of the thrilling experiences be-
falling the former u S. district attor-
ney who sailed last night on the Great
Northern.
Mr. McCarn forgot his ticket in the
hurry of departure. He didn't remem-
ber about 1t until this morning, when
Purser John s. Ford asked him for it.
AS he couldn't produce the highly
necessary scrap of paper, Mr.. McCarn
was in quite an embarrassing situa-
tion.
He sent radio message to friends
here, asking them to go up to GER
tain place and look for the ticket. so
the purser could be notified that he
had really bought one. Mr.. McCarn's
friends had, however, already managed
to rush the ticket on. board the ship.
They hurried down to Pier 6 just
as the liner was backing out into the
stream at IL O'Clock last night Hir-
ing a launch, they got the ticket along
side and handed II to ships officer,
before the liner had started down the
channel. Mr.. McCarn, however, didn't
find this out until after he had sent
out his s. o, s. this morning.

ARMY OFFICERS
NEED AUTOS in
OFFICIAL DUTY
Col. Kennon and Capt. Davis
Testify to This Effect in In
teresting Taxation Case

That automobiles are extensively
used by army officers In the perform
ance Of their military and other off,
cial duties, and that the machines are
highly essential in this respect, is q
summary of the testimony given In
Circuit Judge Stuart's court today by
Col. l.. w. ". Kennon, formerly Of
the 25th Infantry. and Capt w. R..
Davis, medical corps, U. 8. A, as a
part of the plaintiffs case Is the inter-
esting automobile taxation case
brought by Capt. A. F. Cassels against
the tax assessor of the first division.
Taxation by the territory of an au-
tomobile belonging to Captain Cassels
brought about the suit. 1t was taken
TO the supreme court on reserved
questions from Judge Stuart's court.
The higher tribunal held that the
territory has jurisdiction on a mill
tary reservation, and can tax all prop
erty belonging to army officers on
such reservations.
It Is the contention of the plaintiff
in the case that automobiles should
be exempt from taxation the same as
other property owned by army OFF,
GERS and essential in the military serv-
ice. The idea of the testimony this
morning was to show how, and to
what extent, officers are using their
automobiles on the reservations.
Not Trying to Dodge Taxation.
Some people have the impression
that army officers are trying to avoid
taxation simply because they are in
the service" says 1st Lieut.. M. A.
Palen, one of the counsel for the plain
tiff, "but that is not the idea. The
officers feel that they should pay
their taxes the same as other people
on property not used in the military
service"
The plaintiff, according to counsel,
intends to amend his bill of COM
plant to show that, although the ter
ritory may have Jurisdiction on mill
tary reservations, automobiles owned
by army officers, and used in the per-
formance of their military duties, are
exempt from taxation.
In his testimony this morning, Col
onel Kennon said that he was in the
habit of using his automobile for yari.
