NOT Be PROSECUTED
IF He WIT HDRAWS
EXEMPTION CLAIM

On condition that he withdraw his
exemption claim, William Mack, of
Earnestville, was released by United
States Commissioner Sullivan yester-
day from the charge Of selling
liquor to enlisted men in uniform,
and allowed to 60 on his own recog-
nizance. The commissioner told the
defendant that upon presentation of
a certificate from the commanding
officer of the training camp to which
he is sent, that he was in the military
service, the case would be dismissed
entirely.
From the evidence taken yesterday
1t appears that the man came to
Pensacola in response to a summons
from the local exemption board for
physical examination. While waiting
to be examined, he apparently sup
piled a number of enlisted men with
liquor, in violation of the presidents S
proclamation. He passed the phys
ical examination and filed an exemp-
ton claim, on the grounds of de-
pendency. He withdrew this claim
yesterday after the decision of the
commissioner.

FINE 9OO-FOOT PIER
COMPLETED At YARD

Completed in record time, and two
weeks ahead of contract schedule, a
900-foot pier, with boat house, has
been turned over to the coast guard
station at Pensacola by the c. H.
Turner Construction Company. Con-
tract for the work was let some time
ago, and involved approximately
$1,000.
The piling are creosoted, and the
upper structure built of hard lum-
Der. The top of the pier is ten feet
of mean high tide, and is rallied
about, for the entire length. The pier
is six feet wide, and there is a depth
of fifteen feet of water at the end.
A boat house was built at the end of
the pier, for housing motor boats
connected with the station.
The same company has the contract
for twelve hangers at the aeronautic
station, and it is stated that all
twelve will be completed by the time
when the contract specified that only
four should te finished. This gives
the company a margin of several
weeks, by which it finished before
contract time.
