Travis Asks Court
To Order Increase
OF Archbold Tax
Shares of Stock Assessed
at $275 Declared To Be
Worth $3.50; Reappraisal
of Value Is Demanded

Eugene M Travis, State Comptroller,
through William w. Wingate, mis- at
torney, brought a proceeding IN the
Supreme Court yesterday for collection
Of an additional tax on the estate Of
John D. Archbold, former president Of
the Standard Oil Company. The move
is to vacate q stipulation made be-
tween the estate and the Comptroller 5
office and for the reappraisal as to
certain income and stock of the Mag
nola Petroleum Company.
Mr.. Archbold left an estate of $685.
498,247. Among his assets were 6e.47S
shares Of the Magnolia company, which
had a market value of s9,550,229. 1t
was stipulated that tax should be
collected on the basis of $275 a share.
One item of deduction from the gross
estate of Mr.. Archbold was $10s,185.
In the transfer tax appraisal pro-
ceedings D. J. Davern, secretary to Mr..
Archbold, said he prepared the oil man 9
income tax returns and that the Fed
eral government had compelled the pay
ment in years 1913 to 1915 of $1O8,185
on stock dividends, that is dividends
that were paid in shares Of stock. Sub
sequently the United States Supreme
Court had held that collection of such
tax was not legal and the money thus
paid has been recovered by the Arch
bold estate
1t is now the contention Of Comptrol-
ler Travis that this part of the estate
should be compelled to pay state in
come tax. He said he has learned since
the appraisal was made that the United
States Revenue Department had fixed
value of $3.50 share on the Mag
nola stock, which is an increase Of
$4,885,850 over the amount taxed, and
foi 1Y1ot
in the original tax, which was made
without regard to record Of sales of
the stock The Comptroller said the
stock was quoted at $3.50 share in
October, 1915, and in January, 1917,
was quoted at 1926 share.
Mr.. Travis says the stipulation he
now seeks to annual was made improvi-
IDENTIFY and was due to insufficient
testimony taken to show the value of
the stock.
Justice Davis will hear argument on
the motion to-day.

An early drop in the price of milk
was predicted last night by Health
Commissioner Copeland. in announcing
that he would begin Friday to sell
Grade 3 bottled milk to the general
public at is cents quart at baby
health stations throughout the city.

vide real competition with the present
distributors"
Grade B milk Is now sold at 18 cents
quart to householders and retailers
Zone Of the big distributors has
agreed to provide the milk we intend
to sell at is cents" said Dr. Copeland
"They will supply it at profit. l take
this as a certain indication that the
price will drop soon. Otherwise, would
this distributor be willing to let us
sell his milk at so low a figure ?"
Grade A milk is now sold at the baby
health stations to persons with infant
children at II cents quart The
sales Of Grade B, DR.. Copeland pointed
out, will be to every one.
DR.. Copeland was the principal speak
er at convention of restaurant pro-
prietors which opened last night at the
Hotel Astor. The object of the meet
ing was to discuss means of reducing
the cost of food in restaurants.
The problem can be met by a combi
nation in the restaurant business. ac'
cording to Joseph Berger, president Of
the Broadway Restaurant and Bakery
Association. He proposed a cooper
ative association with a laundry, g
purchasing and labor bureau.
Four societies Of restaurant men
claiming 5000 members, were repre-
sented. The following convention Of
fcers were elected: A. B. Wolpin
president; J. Mandl J. Richman and S
Rosenberg, vice-p presidents, and E. f

Policemen Fell
OF Strict Order
To Watch He:ly's
CaptainLyons, att Patrolmen's
Trial, Says Henry Would
Not Withdraw Men De-
spite Dismissals of Case

James j. Phelan and Peter Duffy,
police sergeants attached to the West
Sixty-eighth Street station, were placed
on trial in Special Sessions yesterday
on charges of oppression. The COM
plainant was Thomas Healy, rcstaura-
teur, who charges that, under pretense
of official authority, the men caused
his restaurant at Columbus Avenue
and Sixty-sixth Street to be invaded
and unlawfully trespassed upon by po-
licemen.
Justices Edwards, Herbert and Sal
mon were on the Special Sessions
bench and heard Healy testify, under
questioning by Assistant District At
torney McGrath, that from November
13, 1918, to the latter part Of juno
last the defendants had command Of
policemen who invaded the Healy es-
tablishment, on the charge that the
restaurateur was violating the excise
law. Healy said the police visits caused
falling off of 100000 a month in his
| receipts.
About sixty summonscs, charging vior
lations of the liquor laws, have been
served on Healy, his patrons and en-
ployees at various times, it was stated.
In every case these complaints were
dismissed by magistrates who heard
them, Mr.. McGrath said.
Inspector Dominick Henry, of the
1st Inspection District, under whose
orders the police supervision of Healy' 8
place went on, took the stand and de-
clared that from information he re-
ceived he was morally certain Healy
was persistent violator" Of the ex-
else law.
"Do you know that of your own
knowledge ?" Mr.. McGrath asked Henry.
who answered "No."
Henry testified that he had been at
Healy's himself and would have made
arrests if there had been any violation
Of the law. He said he had seen liquor
on the tables Of guests after l a. M,
the legal deadline, but admitted that
he had seen none served after that
hour.
Captain Michael H. LYONS, Of the
West Sixty eighth Street station, aG-
mitted that he had a standing order
to assign sergeant and three patrol
men to Healy's to cover the various
floors and watch the service bars. He
said that beginning at 1870 q. m, the
patrolmen would warn guests that
they were violating the law in eating
food at Healy's after l a. m. This wns
in accordance with Inspector Henry'e
orders, he said.
Lyons said that after dismissals had
been made of several persons sum-
moned on this charge, he called this
matter to inspector Henry's atten-
ton. but received orders to continue
serving the summons.
The hearing will be continued
Friday.

Ice Companies Refuse
State Access to Books
Committee to Continue Quest
for Facts in Regard to
Alleged Monopoly

Most of the larger ice companies re-
fused to give an accountant employed
by the Lockwood committee, investi-
eating ice and housing conditions, per-
mission to examine their books, it was
brought out at the committees meet
ing held yesterday in the City Hall.
Philip J. Mayer, certified public
accountant in the employ of Haskin &
Sells, of 80 Broad Street, testified the
Knickerbocker Ice Company, the Ma
tional Coal and Ice Company, the In
dependent Hygiene Ice Company and
the firm of Elder & Wells were among
those that had refused to allow him to
examine their accounts.
The Lockwood committee, which Is
headed by Senator Charles Lockwood
of Brooklyn, is attempting to learn if
the ice traffic in this city is controlled
by monopoly. On Thursday Harold
W. Cole. secretary and treasurer of the
National Ice Association of America,
said the price Of ice was not fixed by
concerted action, but producers gem
orally sold at the same price to re-
tailers.
Mr.. Mayer gave the figures on an ex-
animation of the books Of the Washing
ton Heights Ice Corporation, showing
that it received nearly twice the cost
of production for its ice. In the nine
months ended Sptember 80, 1919, the
company sold 53.616 tons Of ice at
s41557 ton, making gross receipts Of
$222,S28. The total cost of this ice to
the company was SS8.115.43. For seven
months ended December 81, 1918. the
company sold S5,694 tons at s3.7s12 a
ton, making an income of s135,325, for
ice which cost $74,725.40 to manufactur
The committee will continue it's in
