ruling given to-day
to Dairy and Food Commissioner
•Tames Foust by Deputy Attorney Gen
eral W. M. Hargest. The question was
raised by some western manufacturers
having license to sell the product in
Pennsylvania and who desired to send
agents into this state to secure orders
from housekeepers and others and to
forward the orders to retailers for de
livery. The manufacturers plan to
pay all of the expenses.
Mr. Hargest holds that the plan
can not be carried out in Pennsylva
nia. saying: "It is within the letter of
thlß statute to require every agent of a
retail dealer to obtain a license before
offering oleomargarine for sale. This
construction, however, may not be
within its spirit, but it is certainly
I within both the letter and the spirit
to require an agent of the manufac
turer who holds a wholesale license to
take out a license before he shall be
permitted to offer oleomargarine for
sale at retail. Nothing said in this
opinion is intended to apply to agents

PLAN TO OFFSET
PACIFIST IDEAS
Loyal Americans Organize to
Combat Antiprepared
ness Moves
By Associated Press
New York, March 30. Leaders of
the Emergency Peace Federation said
to-day that cancellation of permission
to parade in Washington next Monday
would not stop their campaign to in
fluence Congress against a declaration
of war. Although a large body of {iaoi
flsts will assemble in Washington next
week, plans for a demonstration there
will be modified. The federation will
keep lip its effort to raise a $200,000
fund. Most of the money will be used
for newspaper advertising.
The Naval Training Association of
the United States is conducting an ac
tive campaign to offset the work of the
organized pacifists. An appeal sent to
the 2,000 members of the association,
urges them to ioin "in endeavoring to
show the real patriotic spirit of Ameri
can citizens by telegraphing to the
President or to your Congressman to
stand firm for American rights and
American honor at whatever cost."
A society to be known as the Vigil
antes to encourage patriotism was or
ganized last night at a dinner at the
Harvard Club, attended by writers and
artists. Trvin S. Cobb, one of the speak
ers. likened the United States to 'a
nice, large, juicy oyster without a shell,
just waiting for some one with an
oyster fork to come along."
AUSTRIA WANTS
PEACE WITH U.S.
Almost Feverishly Anxious to
Maintain American
Relations
By Associated Press
Berne, March 29, via Paris, MarcVi
30.—A neutral diplomat who arrived
here from Vienna to-day asserts that
Austria is almost feverishly anxious
to retain good relations with the
United States, but is even more de
sirous and determined to support Ger
many. The continuance of friendly
relations between Washington and
Vienna depends almost entirely, he
believes, upon the outcome of the
crisis between Germany and the
United States.
' According to the diplomat, if Am
erica and Germany go to war, Aus
tria will follow the lead of her ally,
but if peace is preserved Vienna hopes
to avoid a break with the United
States.
The econmic situation in Austria is
described by the traveler as very bad
and getting steadily worse, although
perhaps not worse than that in Ger
many.

SWISS TO TAKE
NO PEACE STEP
Parliament Declares Time For.
Move Is Not Yet
Ripe
By Associated Press
Berne, March 29, via Paris, March
30.—The Swiss parliament decided to
duy by a vote of 88 to 22 that Switzer
land should make no move in behalf
of peace at the present time. This
action was taken after hearing the
majority and minority reports of a
commission appointed to consider the
possibility of a peace move by Switzer
land.
The majority of the commission ad
vised against any action at this time.
The minority suggested: First, that
the Bundesrat declare itself ready to
take part in a general conference of
states immediately after the war for
I the purpose of creating an interna-
Itional organization for the peaceful
[ settlement of all political and econo
mical international disputes; second
! ly, that the Bundesrat declare itself
ready, either alone or in connection
I with other neutraJ states, to offer its
; good services for peace negotiations
whenever the circumstances seem
[ timely or whenever its services are re
i quired.
! The two reports were discussed yes
; terday and parliament at iirst declar
: cd itself in l'avor of the majority re
port with the amendment that the
Bundesrat, the federal executive com
mittee, should have a free hand to act
if future developments render it de
sirable. The minority group was dis
satisfied with this action and forced
; the question to a vote with the result
that they were decisively defeated.
M. Hoffman, director of the political
department, in supporting the major
ity report said that the petitions for
a peace move by Switzerland were
well meant, but that the psychological
moment for peace had not arrived.
"However," said M. Hoffman, "we
are optimistic enoun to declare that
It is an absolute necessity to recon
struct international law so as to create
new guarantees in order that such
things as we are experiencing now
will be impossible again. The first
threads, however, will be spun in
some other way, perhaps, according to
the Bryan scheme of agreements to
defeat war, which America has con
cluded."
