DEFENSE RESTS 1 T Schooner Pescawha Case v Comes to Sudden Close in Portland Courts PORTLAND, Ore.. Feb. 23. (By Associated Press) i Council for the -defense In the liquor con spiracy case being heard in the court of Federal Judge Bean caused surprise today when they announced that they would rest their case. But two witnesses had been called to the stand out of a host who had been summoned. The move came after a consulta tion of attorneys for the defend ants. Jacob Woitte and others, in cluding Captain Pamphlet and 8tner members of the crew of th Canadian schooner Pescawha. Attorneys for the dozen or bo defendants at once i began their introduction of motions, including motion for a directed verdict, a motion to suppress and to with draw certain: evidence from the consideration of the Jury, a mo tion to force the government to elect upon which pf certain counts of the indictment it would 'seek conviction and two others affect ing certain specific counts. The closing of the defendants' case came after the testimony of George D. Anstad of Portland, ex member of the Algonquin1 crew. The two most important points of his testimony were that to the best of his knowledge the Pes cawha was about 18 miles off the Washington shore' when she was sighted by the Algonquin and that he had heard Lieutenant Com mander William P. Wlshaar, ex master of the Algonquin, state that he wanted to re-write the log of the cutter in order that the government- might have a better case against the Canadian craft. PROPERTY TAX CUT DISCUSSED AT MEET (Continued from ptf 1.) Study to a proposal to Increase the gasoline sales tax from three to lour, cents per gallon. He said such a levy would raise approxi mately $1,000,000 annually 'and allow f6r the elimination r of the market road tax of one mill. A. A. Smith of Baker said that while he considered the gasoline sales tax a fair and equitable levy, he believed that an : increase j of one cent a gallon would start an agitation to reduce materially the motor vehicle license fees now re ceived by the state. A similar opinion was, expressed by C. C. Chapman,' editoif of the Oregon yoter, who appeared at the meet log in the role of a taxpayer. There also was some discussion la connection with a proposal to increase the fees levied I against certain .corporations operating in the state. Under the existing law these corporations now pay to the state approximately $40,000 an nually.
