AUTOMOBILE CASE
is DISMISSED

Walter Reason, of Railway,
through his attorney, Jacob S. Kar-
kus, yesterday in the local district
court sued Clarence Sexton, an au-
tomobile dealer of this city, for
unpaid commissions on sales he
claimed he had made.
In court yesterday Reason claim
ed that in March of 1919 Sexton
engaged him as his agent for the
sale of cars in Middlesex county,
agreeing to pay him five per cent.
on all cars sold by him. He further
claimed that in December of 1919
he made a sale of a car to the Oil
j.. and received $93.75 from Sexton
as his commission on the deal,
which was only half of the amount
he should have been credited with.
Sexton, represented by Adrian
Lyon, denied the claim Of Reason
and put in a counterclaim of $40,
stating that Reason had overdrawn
his account. Sexton testified that
the sale of the car had been made
to Robert Smally, who resided in
another county, and produced a bill
that showed he had paid a commits
sion to the agent for this car in
Somerset county.
The court decided that circum-
stances seemed to indicate that
v-her Sexton had paid the commits
sion to the agency of Somerset couu-
ty, it released Sexton from the claim
Of Reason. Sexton's counterclaims
we're dismissed on the ground that
they were not well founded.

St. Peters Cadets AmaIga-
mate With Westminster
Organization Last Niqht.

At a meeting last night in st. Pc
ter's Parish house in Rector street,
attended by over fifty cadets of the
Westminster and st. Peters Cadets,
the two military companies were
amalgamated into one organization
to be known as the st. Peters West
minister cadets. 1t was decided to
hold drills regularly every Thursday
night, starting October IA. Next
week the meeting will be held Tues
day evening instead of the regular
drill night.
The new officers elected by the
members are as follows: Anthony
Hansen, major; Albert c. Krogh, ad-
jutant; Joseph Hansen, aid to the
adjutant; H. Earl Barnes, quarter
master: George Dover, assistant
quartermaster; Alfred Baker, sup
ply officer; Harry Comings, Thomas
Peterson, Anthony Hansen. Albert
Krogh, Ronold Kleckner. Holger
Holm and Rossi Peterson were
named as the trustees.
1t was decided to purchase prop
erty for a permanent company site
for the organization and the follow
ing were selected as a committee to
look up a suitable place for this pur-
pose: Anthony Hansen, ii. Earl
Barnes, Albert Krogh, Alfred Baker,
Fritz Ritter and Howard Baker.

pany and the battery. The battery
will use the famous old Garfield Bat
terry cannon, which the Westminster
cadets have been custodians of for
SINE time past.
Following the reorganization of
the junior company units, senior
military unit will be started. As
twenty eight members of the West
minister company and large num-
ber of the ST. Peters cadets saw
service in the recent war, it is ex-
pectcd that Perth Amboy will again
have a crack military organization.
The Junior units will comprise of
boys from twelve years up to seven
teen years, while the senior compa-
MES will range from eighteen years
and up.
This afternoon at 3:45 o'clock in

SUGAR PRICES WILL NOT
INCREASE AGAIN, REPORT
BY GEORGE B. WATERS

On. E. A. STAN correspondent
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2:-The
trials and tribulations of sugar con-
sumers, brought on by the war. and
added to by profiteers and specula-
tors, are ended forever!
In other words, sugar prices will
not go up again this year or next
year. There is plenty of sweetening
to go around and the United States
will have more sugar next year than
the people can use. In fact, the
whole world will have an abundant
supply.
Profiteers. Spectators and hoard
ers are doing the worrying. They
still have much of the sugar and
are going to sell it for less than they
paid. OF course, millions have been
made in sugar, but now those same
fellows are going to drop some of
their ill-gotten coin. The wholesale
prioe has dropped from 261A cents
to441a cents the last few weeks and
it is sure to stay down and even so
lower.
U. S. Got More
Statistics of production and sup
plies give good indication of what
may be expected in the way of
prices for the remainder of this
year and for next year. The 1919
Cuban crop just closing is estimated
at 3,750,000 tons with $4,000 tons
yet to be shipped. Last years pro-
duction was estimated at 1912. 900
tons. The total worlds production
OF cane sugar available during the
calendar year for 1920 is estimated
to be 11.S09,0 tons. as compared
with 11.986,000 tons the year be-
fore. and beet sugar S,346.00O tons
as compared with 100000 last
year.
The worlds production for this
year is thus only about one and one
quarter million tons less than last
year. But the United States has re-
ceived more than her share of the
crop, as is shown by total receipts
to Sept. 16 at all ports of S,5S7,S01
tons as compared to 3.329,S59 tons
last year, and exports since Jan.
have been about the same as last
year. And it is stated that the
European deliveries are aready
made, so that the United States has
the $4,000 tons yet unshipped in
Cuba to draw upon. Altogether
somewha. more than 100000 tons
have been received or are available
in America this year. The country's
total consumption in 1919 was about
4,O6S, 900 tons and in 1918. 3,496. 900
tons. The years supply for the
United States is thus approximately
equal to last years.
But, besides all this sugar, there Is
an invisible supply. Large surplus
stocks are still in the hands of
manufacturers and wholesalers and
others. And large supplies are stored
by spectators and used to secure
loans. Authorities say there is more
sugar i'm this country now than ever
before.

congratulation while from Joseph

come a telephone message pledging
the united support of Ocean county

Following is the letter from Her.
bert to App1eby:
IT wish to congratulate you upon
your nomination to congress on the
Republican ticket and wish you sue
cess at the election November 2

The telephone communication
from the Ocean county candidate
has promised the Asbury Park man
cooperation in that part of the third
congressional district in his race
against DIR. William f. Ramsay, the
Democratic choice, at the general
election.
Despite the letter from Herbert to
Appleby wishing him success in his
campaign, the hackers of Herbert,
especially in and around New
Brunswick, seem to be far from
contented with the result and the
remarks passed by some this morn
Ing would indicate that the Repub-
tcan candidate would get little
support from them unless they
change their mind between now and
election.
