STACKER CASE
OF SCAVENIUS
Still in AIR

Wilfred James Singleton, better

Cuted as a Stacker" and. on the
other hand, his case may be dropped,
now that he has registered and is
subject to draft unless he can claim
exemption on the ground that he is
not citizen of the United States.
Just what shall be done with Sim
gleton. or Scavenius. lies with Dis
trfct Attorney S. c. Huber, and the
federal official today declared he has
not yet made up his mind as regards
the disposition Of the case. Single
tons case was originally in the hands
Of the central registration board,
which turned it over to Attorney HUI
Der with the recommendation that he
prosecute.
Whether the case is of sufficient
strength to warrant the federal Of
ficials using it to launch its cam
paiRn of prosecution of slackers, is
question which has presented a
rather unique problem, says the dis
trict attorney, and is one, he adds,
which is to be given thorough con-
sideration before the case is finally
disposed of one way or another.

PUBLICITY Wins

Star-Bulletin publicity has again
scored 100 per cent and Charles P.
Morse, general freight agent Of the
American-Hawaiian Steamship Co, is
hot on the trail of the owner OF the
barrel of cut glass and bric-a-brac
that has been in his possession for the
last year.
Ever since the barrel arrived here
from New York in 1915 Mr. Morse has
been looking for its owner. He got in
touch with the Eastern city and with
Pacific coast ports, but without avail.
He even wrote to the Philippines.
A few days ago Mr.. Morse told the
story of the lost barrel to the Star
after an army officer stationed at
one of the local posts, where the Star
Bulletin is widely read, telephoned to
Mr.. Morse and told him he believed
he could locate the owner of the bar
rel. In the opinion of the officer, the
barrel is the property Of a woman who
formerly lived in Honolulu, but who
removed to the mainland some months
ago. The officer told Mr.. Morse that
she had been expecting a shipment Of
cut glass and bric-a-brac, and on sew
eral occasions had expressed surprise
that it had not arrived.
Mr.. Morse has fixed up a descrip-
ton Of the contents OF the barrel
which will be forwarded to the woman,
and she will be requested to cable the
freight agent if it is hers.
Il sure am believer in publicity"
says Mr.. Morse, land in this instance
it didn't cost me a cent"
