General of IstsrnaI Revenue withhold
Ing permits TO manufacture preserved
sweet cider from two companies be-
cause they would not certify TO the
permanent alcoholic content" OF their
products.
The actions sustained by Judge
Hand were brought by the Hildick
Apple Juice Company and the Duffy
Mott compsny against william N.
william, Commissionar of Internal
Revenue; John F. Kramer. Fed
erAl prohibition commissioner, and
Charles r. o'Connor. Federal prohibi-
tion director for 'the State OF New

have twenty days In which TO file
replies to the suits. In declining to
dismiss the suits. Judge Hand said.
although the reason for the decis-
ion OF the Commissioner General in
rejecting the application and refusing
the permits does not appear, 1t would
seem to bel due to the fact that
neither applicant WAS willing TO
assure the permanent alcoholic con-
tent of his product"
The Hildick Apple Juice Company
would not state that the Juice of the
apples when nrst pressed contained
less than one-half of l per cent. of
alcohol by volume. The Duffy-M Mott
Company stated that its preserved
sweet cider would contain when
manufactured and prepared for the
maket less than one-half of per
cent. of alcohol" Continuing. Judge
Hand said:
The regulations of the Department
seem to have been complied with by
applicants in all respects except those
in which they say compliance is i'm
possible.
The requirements that an applicant
can use only Juice from apples that
contain a Liquid having less than one
half of ! per cent of alcohol by
volume; that be so preserved and en-
case and seal the juice that IT can
never have a higher percentage OF

406 WOODEN SHIPS
Fleet Costing 1898, 100000 to
Build During War Finds

BY Associated Press to Every Evening

by Associated Press to Every Evening
Washington, Aug. 3.-Disposal OF
more than /, SOC, 900 tons of wooden ship
ping-406 vessels of various types-built
rs part of the governments war time
merchant marine program is one OF the
most difficult problems facing the Ship
ping Board. 1wenty-one of the craft,
aggregating $1,000 deadweight tons, were
offered recently, but no buyers were
found.
Only 194 of these wooden craft are now
In operation. Seventy-three are tied up at
various ports under managing caretakers
and l39 are in storage yards One hundred
and seven of those in storage" are finish
ed hulls while 81 are converted barges.
Offi cials of the board say that when the
serviceability of the wooden fleet has been
demonstrated little difficulty will be
experienced in turning it over to private
ownership at about 500 a ton. These
vessels were built in an emergency, many
of green timber and some of them made
poor showings year and two years ago
but now that they have seasoned Of
ficers of the board consider them practica-
bic cargo carriers.
Because of the bad record of some of
the vessels operators have condemned
them all, officials declare, whereas, the
records of those now IN operation show
very creditable performances. One WOO
den ship out of SIX round trips across the
Atlantic, at sea 500 days and in port an
equal number, was laid up for repairs
only % days.
To date 532 wooden and composite
ships, aggregating 1,94S, $50 deadweight
tons, consisting of 322 cargo ships, one
tanker, lis finished hulls, ten sailing
craft, SO hulls converted into barges and
20 standard barges, have been delivered
to the board. A total of Iii of these YES
sells, aggregating 397 ,2S5 deadweight tons,
has been sold and II totalling A $40 tons
have been lost at sea.
The total cost of the construction of
this fleet, estimated by the board at S170
a deadweight ton, was approximately
1888 ,OO0,0 900, Sale of the 100000 tons
now held by the board at 500 ton would
WELD S135, 100000 Those already sold
brought about 100000 so that if the
f06 remaining in the governments pos
session are disposed of to private owners
the total loss through the wooden ship
venture would be something like Sl70,-

CHARGES CONSPIRACY
AMONG CLOTHING MEN
Assistant to Attorney General Says
Department of Justice will
Prosecute.
BY Associated Press to Every Evening

By Associated Press to Every Evening
Washington, Aug 3.-Howard E. Figg,
special assistant TO the attorney general
in the enforcement Of the Lever Law
against profteering, charged yesterday
that manufacturers and jobbers of wear
ing apparel were attempting through
carefully prepared propaganda ito stam-
pede retailers and the public into a re-
newed fictitious demand" for clothing
and thereby force prices higher
"The Department of Justice" said Mr.
Figg, sis fully advised and it only remains
to fix personal responsibility before apply
ing the criminai provisions Of the Lever
Law"
Mr.. Figg charged that the manufactur-
ers and jobbers were circulating propa-
ganda similar TO that used to mulct the
public during the recent speculative con-
ditions."
Manufacturers and jobbers are even
going to the length of guaranteeing the
retail. trade against a declining market. !"
Mr.. Figg said.
He called attention TO instances where
mills have been closed for the reason
he charged, of justifying market condi-
tions on the pea of under-producton.
The closing of mills is in turn being
used in the price propaganda," MIR. Figg
asserted. The retailer is then being
threatened with further curtailment and
higher prices If he does not accept goods
and order on the present market.
