WAIKIKI BEACH

SAN FRANCISCO. = Does the
stream line or the new Marmon car
suggest the graceful curve Of WAIKIKI
beach? An affirmative answer TO the
question gives an explanation OF the
zach the Honolulu Marmon dealer had
no more landed his first demonstrate
ing car then he began to gather In
orders from appreciative island dwell
ers. The II. B. Rector Compan:S
local distributors of the Marmon, has
received word that three orders were
taken within two hours after the car
was rolled Off the boat. and on the
succeeding days, three more orders
we're taken
Sales Manager Townsley of the
Rector company suggests that maybe
the island folks think the Marmon
win make an excellent sand skim

ness. due to the use Of aluminium IN
construction. Is one Of its notable fea-
lures The lightness has been OBJ
tanned without sacrifice Of service

noteworthy on account Of its perfect
balance and beauty Of body line, ha4-

current to the external circuit in one

Physician and TrUo
Others Guilty of Plot
To Defeat Draft LdlU

DR.. Henry Seligmsn. Lazarus Jacob
son and Nathan Ehrlich were convicted
Of conspiracy TO defeat the purposes
Of the draft law by jury in the
United States District Court in Brook
lyn Yesterday. and were committed 10
the RAYMOND Street Jail without bail.
The men were found guilty of plotting
to obtain the exemption OF Joseph
Levey through Local Board OF, with
which DR.. Seligmsn was serving as
volunteer examining physician.
The men will be sentenced by Judge
Veeder on Monday. The maximum
penalty under the law is a prison
sentence of two years or $4,000 fine,
or both.
The trial lasted seven days. Jacob.
son was arrested after Levey is alleged
to have given him SIS andAa gold watch
10 obtain his exemption. Jacobson is
accused of acting at the time as go
between for Dr. Seligmsn. Levey, il
was shown, was exempted by the board
anyway because Of rupture. Enrich
was charged with being present on an
other occasion when DR.. Seligmsn and
jacobson negotiated for the exemption
of another man for 5000.
George Martin, counsel for the ply
stefan and Jacobson, charged that they
were the victims Of conspiracy
Matched by government witnesses.
Assistant United States District At
orntey Henry Ward Beer concluded his
address by stating that the EYE OF
every exemption board In the country
was on the Jurors.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-Major Gen

denied to-day that the marines IN
France are in desperate need OF SOCKS
He took issue fatty with the comforts
committee OF the Navy League, whose
"emergency call 70 knitters' was sent
out from the New York headquarters
last Monday.
The advertisement of the comforts
committee stating that IAN urgent call
is made for 5000 pairs of heavy winter
service socks for the United States
Marines now in France, which are des-
perately needed" was sent BY Lincol IN
Cromwell, chairman OF the knit goods
committee OF TIE Council Of National
Defence, to General Barnett. who wrote
in reply:
"To say that am astonished at this
advertisement is putting IL mildly, for
this Office has rot sanctioned any such
procedure on the part OF the comforts
committee OF the Navy League, nor had
it any knowledge OF it prior to the re-
ceipt from you OF the copy OF the ad-
vertisement The use Of the name Of

tirely unwsrraRted and unauthorized,

u. S. Destroyer Badly
Damaged in Collision
Strikes British Naval Vessel,
But Is Now in Active
Service Again

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-An Ameri-
can Destroyer in European waters re-
Gently was in collision with a BRUSH
naval vessel which, after taking of the
American crew, towed the disabled de-
strover safely 70 port. In announcing
the collision to-day the Navy Depart
ment said no ona was injured ABOARD the
American destroyer and that the vessei
since had been repaired and restored TO
active duty.
An official inquiry developed that the
collision was unavoidable, the VesseIs
having come together during a heavy
rainstorn.
The following official statement was
issued:
"An American destroyer, operating IN
Furopean waters, was severely damaged
In a night collision with a British naval
vessel. After the accident the BRUSH
ship stood by, took of part OF the de-
stroyer's crew and towed her into port,
No one aboard either ship was injured
and the destroyer has since been re-
haired and returned TO active service;
IAN investigating board OF naval offi-
Gers found that the accident was dye
m the fact that the destroyer suddenly
emerged from a heavy rainstorm when
made her invisible almost up TO tne
moment OF the collision. 1t was there
fore decided that no blame attached 70

Theodore Roosevelt contributes the
following to "The Kansas City starr

"The ordnance bureau Of the War
Department admits that we have not
rifles for our National Army. but at
tempts TO excuse matters by saving
that it is Of no consequence, because
we shall have rifles few months hence.

The admission IS correct. The excuse
is not.
Even for training il is better to arm
infantrymen each with the weapon he
Is TO use rather than TO give each man
a brOomstick or 10 give every four men
an ANTICIPATED rifle, which cannot be
used in service; and most Of our srtil-
lery regiments at present either have
no guns or wooden guns, or, in rather
rare cases. old style guns, which can
not be matched against any present day
artillery. Moreover-and this is the
vital point-we now have the time to
prepare only because the English and
French fleets and armies protect us.
Eight months have passed since
Germany openly went 10 war with us.
As yet we have not rifles for our IN
fantry. AS yet we have not guns for
our artillery. 1t will De at least a
year after we are dragged into the war
before our army will have received the

This is broomstick preparedness,

10 Per Cent Raise
In Navy Yard Pay
Granted by u. S.
Assistant Secretary Roose.
welt and Union Chiefs
Reach Agreement

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-An agree
ment on wage scales virtually was
reached to-day between the Navy De
partment and the presidents Of the Ia
terrationsl Trades Union. representing
navy yard employees. While figures
have not been finally decided, IL was
announced officially that the conference
had reached point where the union
mon expected to sign agreements TO-
morrow for the ensuing year.
The effect CT the scale under consid-
Grafton will be TO increase the cost OF
navy yard labor to the government
more than 10 per cent over the scale
for 1917, which expired September "a
The point remaining to be settled,
according 20 Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt, with whom the presidents
are in conference, is whether the In
crease over the 1917 scale shall be
fixed in percentage of the old rate OF
on a definite number OF cents per hour
for each branch of each trade.
Equalization Of pay within the trades
is proposed, and the effect, it was
said. would be to place all of the men
on the basis Of pay Of the top men Of
that trade. The actual increase for
the high men would be small, in some
cases not more than 2 per cent. For
the men in lower ratings, however. the
advance would be 20 per cent or more.
While the War Department did not
participate in the conferences, IL is ex
pected that, under the Standardization
policy for eivil employees OF the army
and navy and Of the Shipping Board
men at the arsensls and engaged on
government shipbuilding outside the
navy yards in many cases will benefit
from the new nlan
