WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The of
ficials in charge Of casualties at the
War department in letter to Con-
gresham II. G. woodward express the
belief that Pvt. John T. McGinnis, re-
ported to have died in France Of
pneumonia Sept. 3, 1918, and John T.
McGuinness, son Of Bernard McGuin-
ness. Of Washington. Wood county,
w. Va, are one and the same. Both
have the same serial number, cred
tied 70 the same division, and their
records are identical in several other
respects. The War department has
mo doubt" that the two names refer
to the same soldier. that John 7. Nc
Guinness is dead, and has so notified
his father. However. 1t has forward
ed cablegram to General Pershing
to Investigate the case further so
that the doubt, II possible, may be
cleared up entirely. It appears to
have been brought about by spelling
1t McGinnis, while the soldiers name
should have been spelled McGuinness.

West Virginia theatre managers
have joined in the nation wide CAM
paign Of their kind to prevail upon
congress not to levy a 20 per cent tax
on admission tickets costing 80 cents
and over. They have bombarded the
members Of the state delegation with
protests bolstered up with the argu-
ments that they have on their side
why such heavy tax should not. be
imposed. The provision affecting
them and their business is the rev.
enue bill passed by both branches
and now in conference. If the provis-
ion stands. there isn't doubt that
the theatrical business will be dealt
a terrific blow, unless the public good
naturally and generously assumes It,
which managers fear will not be the
case. THE traffic carries all 1t will
bear" with the present 10 per cent
tax, they say. The managers have
enlisted the theatregoers in their pro-
test, and voluminous petitions. tele-
grams and letters are pouring in.
