NEW YORK, Nov. 16. Ludwig C. A. K. Martens, self-styled "ambassador of the Russian soviet government to the United States," has offered to provide transportation from the Unit ed States to Russia for all Russian citizens who desire to leave America, or whose presence in the United States is undesirable to the federal government. This offer was made in a letter written by Martens to Secretary of State Lansing and made public to night. In his letter Martens protested against the "unwarranted and cruel treatment" to which many Russian citizens in the United States are sub jected "by the federal and state of ficials. as well as by mobs acting without authority." He proposes that the soviet government be permitted to return the citizens to soviet Rus sia and declares that he has received thousands of applications from such citizens who are anxious to return to their homes. . Court Contempt Charged. Martens was arrested for contempt Saturday and released on $1000 bail sfter he had refused to appear and bring certain documents before the Lusk legislative committee investi gating radical activities in New Tork. He based his refusal on the ground that all communications passing be tween himself and his government were privileged. When brought be fore the committee in the custody of deputy sheriffs Saturday afternoon. Martens promised to appear before the committee Monday and bring his papers with him. Calling attention to press reports that it is proposed to deport certain Russians to parts of Russia under control of the enemies of the soviet government. Martens in his letter protests that such deportation would mean certain death for those deport ed and would constitute "a flagrant breach of all principles of interna tional law." Employes of Division Congratu lated by Mr. O'Brien for 100 Per Cent Clear Record. Highest honors in the national ac cident prevention drive in the north west officially have been awarded to the Southern Pacific lines north of Ashland. News of the award was re ceived yesterday by J. P. O'Brien, fed eral manager, from R. H. Aishton. re gional director of the northwest. The Southern Pacific will be given a banner commemorating its perfect record in accident prevention during the drive. A message of congratu lation sent out by Mr. O'Brien runs as follows: 'Final statistics compiled by the safety section show the Southern Pa cific (lines north of Ashland), em ploying 4676 men and operating ISIS miles .of road, had no reportable cas ualties to employes during the na tional accident prevention drive, Oc tober 11 to 31. inclusive. This Is very enviable record considering the fact that during the same two weeks of 1918 one employe was killed and 13 Injured.

A lucky stone which John Milhok. a laborer, brought with him from Hun gary, when he came to America in 1903, and which had been lying in his house for a quarter of a century, has turned out to be a pigeon-blood ruby, without a flaw, and when cut and polished weighed 23 9-10 karats.

Exhaustion of . the Hawaiian cane sugar crop has made central and northern California, Oregon, Wash ington, northern Idaho and Nevada consumers entirely dependent upon the remaining beet sugar crop, the Pacific coast office of the sugar equalization board stated tonight in an announcement .that a price of 10 cents a pound for beet sugar at the factory would be effective tomorrow. The new beet sugar price is an ad vance of 1 cent over the price at which the refiners sold cane sugar and makes possible a retail figure of 12 cents, as wholesalers are allowed a profit of half a cent a pound, while the retailers may charge 14 cents ad ditional. There has been no known hoarding on the part of refiners, jobbers or re tailers, the equalization board de clared, the abnormal consumption on the part of the public being solely accountable for the exhaustion of sugar stocks. The board announced it was noti fying the "fair price" committees of Washington and Oregon and also the department' of justice, which had authorized the advance, that retailers purchasing beet sugar at the ne price would be permitted to add one cent to the present rate charsed their customers. No retailers or jobbers would be permitted to raise the price of their present stock, it was de clared, while any advance in the price of cane sugar would be prosecuted by the department of justice. Thirty six-million pounds of sugar, or seven pounds for every person in northern California, Nevada, Oregon and Wash ington, was distributed to the people of that territory in a period of 30 days ending yesterday, through a Co operative agreement with the vari ous refineries in California. It was stated, the figure being three times the per capita allotment made to the people of the United States during the war. This allotment excluded all sales to manufacturers. The board asserted that It had saved $360,000 to the housewives the Pacific coast in the last three weeks by permitting only low priced beet sugar and cane sugar to be sold to them.
