Fingerprints Fail
in Cooper Mystery

Nashville, Tenn, Cept. 6.-The
blood-stained finger marks on the
automobile in which Robin J. Cooper
prominent local attorney, left his
home on the night he was killed, were
smeared to such an extent that they
will be of little or no benefit, in
identifying the slayer, according to
an announcement tonight by Captain
Robert Dunning, Bertilion expert of
the Cincinnati police department, who
examined the smudges on the car.
Cooper was killed and his BODY
thrown into a creek near Nashville
on the night of August %. So far
as is known the police have been un-
able to secure definite clue as to
the identity of his slayer.
Captain Cunning expressed the
opinion that it was large man who
killed Cooper, explaining that only a
large man could have grasped the
rock with which the attorneys skull
was crushed. Captain Dunning re
turned to Cincinnati tonight.

.DENIESSUCAR MEN
IND. ARE COUCERS
J. n. Wilkins Declares Many
Residents Are Hoardirg
Commodity.

Denial that the Washington dealers
in sugar are profteeing or hording
sugar for higher prices was made be-
fore the Senate Agricultural subcom-
mittee today by John II. wilkins, of
the wilkins Wholesale Grocery Com
pany.
Mr.. wilkins appeared before the
committee that is investigating the
sugar shortage throughout the coun-
try to tell of the conditions in the
District of Columbia. He said that
the sugar supply in Washington was
very low, and urged the committee
to give every consideration to Wash
ington's needs IL it made recommen-
dations to the sugar equalization
board for distribution of supplies in
case the Government continues the
war powers of that board.
There is no boarding among the
dealers of the city, Mr.. wilkins told
the committee, but he did express the
belief that many residents are hoard
ing supplies in fear of being unable
to get additional amounts of sugar.
The increased consumption is due
largely to prohibition, which has
brought about a greater use of sugar
IN the manufacture of soft drinks.
The Washington times., 1919-10-20
PROHIBITION CAUSES
SHORTAGE OF SUGAR

The soft drink wave that rose with
prohibition is partly responsible for
the scarcity of sugar, according to
expert testimony offered to the Sem
ate Committee on Agriculture. The
increased consumption OF soft
drinks and candy has increased
the country's sugar demand Is per
cent since 1914, and the demand can
not be supplied without some new ef-
fort by the Government toward Sc
curing a larger share Of the foreign
crop. "
This was made plain TO the com
mittee by DIR. Alonzo Taylor. who re-
Gently completed a sugar survey for
the Department of Agriculture, and
Judge William A. Glasgow, of counsel
for the Sugar Equalization Board,
which handled the sugar supply dur
ing the war.
But soft liquor doesn't bear all the
blame for present conditions. Eu-
ropes sugar crop is reduced to one
half, while Europe's sugar appetite is
keener than ever After five years OF
war. privations the people of Europe
are rebelling against food restrictions
and ipdulging in an orgy of sugar, it
was stated.
And the Chinese have learned to
like sugar so well that they are TAX
Ing a large part of the Java crop
which used to go to Europe.
According to the present outlook
America and Europe will compete for
the Cuban crop, which is the largest
supply in the world. and prices Will
go skyward unless the United States
Government continues the supervis-
ion which it exercised during the
war, Senator'S learned.
The pending bill to continue the
Sugar Equalization Board is generally
favored, but, there is disagreement as
to it's method of operation. Some
members of the Senate committee
have believed that by merely buying
the available Cuban crop the board
could relieve the situation, regula-
ting prices by publicity.

WH|SKEY BAN
MAY BEENDED
BY PRESIDENT
AFTER PEACE

There Is very slight chance
that President Wilson will raise the
wartime dry ban before constitu-
tional prohibition becomes affective
IN January, It was learned from re-
sponsibie sources today.
upon ratification OF the German
treaty the President may proclaim
peace. eve. though the United States
Stiil Is az ar, technically, with Aus
tris, according to this information.
Declaration OF peace will make pos
sible the lifting of the ban and Amer
lea will have a wet Christmas.
Vets Hopeful
Those fayoring a "wet spot" pro-
fessed to believe the President would
not be bound by a technical state OF
war with Austria. or any other tech
nicslities, in declaring peace after the
German treaty is accepted by the
Senate
However, Il was learned that the
Austrian state OF war has been al
most completely overlooked by Gov
eminent officials in figuring on when
the war could be officially declared
ended. The President is expected to
ask the Department of Justice for an
opinion on the subject before he acts
to declare peace.
Should the ban be lifted, millions OF
gallons of whiskey ano other spirits
new held in bonded warehouses. prob
ably will go on the market at cost
prices. as this will be the last oppor-
tunity to dispose Of them.
