NAMED SECOND LIEUTENANT
Leo F. S. Horan Wins Commission in
U, S. Marine Corps
Leo F. S. Horan, of 6004 Jefferson street,
was today appointed a second lieutenant
In the United States marine corps.
He was clerk of tho court-martial board
at the Philadelphia Navy Yard and was
known among the men there as "Judge."

Mrs. Horan said she was proud of hla
achievements Recently Horan was comnll.
mented by Secretary Daniels for his legal
work on the court-martial board.
Both wholesale and retail dealers today
concurred In the opinion that when the
oyster season openi next fall the succulent
bivalves are likely to be higher In price
than at any other period In the history of
the Industry.
Announcement was made today at the
annual convention of the Oyster Growers'
Association of North America nt the Park
Avenue Hotel, New York, that the prICo of
oysters in hulk will be advanced 25 to 35
per cent the coming season. It was said
the advance In price was Inevitable because
of a 100 per cent Increase In tho cost of
boats, rope and other equipment, and the
Increase In the cost of labor.
A representative of the Keystone Oyster
Company, 326 South Water street, one of
the largest wholesale oyster houses In Phila
delphia, said In reference to the price com
ment at the convention in New York:
"Yes. thero are Indications that prices
are going up, but It Is a llttla early to talk
about It now. Conditions may change be
fore next fall. The matter ot prices for
thi Philadelphia district will be discussed
nt a meeting next September of the Maurice
River, N. J., Oyster OrowerV Association.
This association always meets In September
to get a line on the oyster situation.
'There Is another factor In addition to
the Increased cost of labor and equipment
which may tend to boost prices The State
of New Jersey Is considering taxing oysters
already planted, and It this Is done oysters
are bound to be high the coming season."
