PEACE TREATY
IS ACCEPTED
BY AUSTRIANS
Reports Say Archduke Joseph
of Austria Will Soon Be Elect
ed to the Kingship of Hun
gary... Vienna, Oct. 26. President Karl
Seitz, of the republic of Austria, to
day signed the treaty of peace with
the allied and associated governments.
This completes acceptance by Aus
tria of the treaty of St. Germain. The
treaty becomes effective when formal
notices of ratification by Austria and
three of the principal allied and asso
ciated powers have been deposited in
the French foreign office and this
fact has. been made public in a formal
protocol. .
Stockholm. Oct. 26. The . Svenska
Dagbladet learns from what It con
siders an unusually well-informed
source that Archdjake Joseph, of Aus
tria, will soon be elected king of Hun
gary. His popularity, authority for the
newspaper states, is growing steadily,
and his consort. Princess Augustine,
of. Bavaria, enjoys great popularity as
a result of her self-sacrificing work
for the Red Cross during the war and
since.
If the entente objects to the assump
tion of the throne by the Hapsburg
archduke, it is said it will be offered
to a foreign prince, probably of the
English royal family. Resumption by
former Emperor Charles is out of the
question.
Archduke Joseph formed the gov
ernment of which he is the head last
August. -His retirement was demanded

FOOD PROBLEMS
WITH SUCCESS
Bureau of Markets Has Interest

Employed in Different Sec
tions of Country.
ONE CITY ALSO IS
OPERATING A FARM
Curb Markets and Municipal
Retail Market Houses Are
Operated With Direct Aid and
in Direct Saving to People..
Washington, D. C. Oct 26. The
municipalities, are- tackling their local
food , problems in a variety of ways,
some of them unusual, is evidenced by.
reports received by the city market
ing division of the bureau of markets.
United States department of agricul
ture. From establishing curb markets, re
modeling or building retail market
houses, efforts of cities have expanded
until some are actually selling food
supplies, while one city of about 65,000
population is . operating a farm and
selling produce from it at retail. -How
One City Sells Food.
Houston, Texas, which has a munic
ipally owned retail market house, has
taken over three stalls in the building
and is handling fruits and vegetables
in competition . with its . tenants. In
order to be fair to other retailers it
charges Itself with all overhead ex
penses paid by other dealers, includ
ing rent, 'and also pay - wages-higher
than those paid in other stalls. Re
ports on ten weeks" operation of the
city managed stalls show 'that it is
possible to buy and sell produce In
competition with local merchants at
both a direct and indirect saving. to
consumers. The experiment', is to be
enlarged to include food products
other than fruits and vegetables and is
said to be already serving as a stabil
izing Influence on prices in that -city
market. Competing merchants have
become Interested In" the methods of
doing business of - the city-operated
stalls and appear anxious to try out
pratices that would enable them to
lower their prices.
City Goes Into Farming.
Allentown, Pa., has gone into farm-,
ing on a farm acquired for other pur
poses which, through changes in mun
iciple plans, was lying idle. Under the
direction of one of the city alderman
this farm is producing vegetables and
selling them at retail in competition
with shipped-in produce. The farm
also' feeds 1,000 head of hogs on city
garbage. Local advocates of the. plan
now propose to include the use of an
old brewery as a storage warehouse
for potatoes "and other products grown
by local farmers, so as to lessen the
city's dependence on shippedin pro
ducts. ' ;
Although the bureau of markets,
through the city marketing division, is
keeping in touch with developments
In many cities and is compiling in
formation for use in answering In
quiries, it states that it would be glad
to hear from any cities not as yet
reached by formal inquiries, which are
working . on local food problems
through municipally owned Shops and
by other methods differing from those
that have been followed in. the past.
The bureau plans to make available in
formation In regard to the successes
and failures of cities in their efforts
to solve their food problems in order
that municipalities contem plating
special action may. have the benefit of
the experience of communities faced
with similar conditions.

Department of Justice Has Only
Hundred Thousand With

(By GEORGE H. MANNING.)
Washington, D. C, Oct. 26. The fur
ther the internal revenue bureau goes
along with its preparations for carry
ing out the prohibition enforcement
law the more appalled it becomes with
the realization that it is going to be
utterly impossible to stamp out the
liquor traffic with the very limited
force that can be maintained with the
$2,000,000 appropriated by congress j
for doing the work this fiscal year.
The department of justice is like
wise puzzled over the problem of pros
ecuting all violations of the prohibi
tion law detected by the internal rev
enue bureau with- the paltry appro
priation of $100,000.
With three big measures passed by
congress calculated to make the Uni
ted States drier than the Sahara desert
the members of congress are afraid
they have advanced ' a step too . far.
The treasury and justice departments
are aghast at the enormity of the task
of enforcing "the law and the anti
saloon league inwardly has fears that
a sudden- change from a "wide-open"
United States to a bone dry coyuitry
will result in a disastrous physical
and sentimental reaction. , -.
Prohibition in general and especially
the sale of wine and beer will become
an important issue in the next gen
eral elections, and may be' one of the
principal planks of a presidential can
didate who will take the field on a
labor and wine and beer platform, ac
cording to shrewd politicians In Wash
ington," who have closely watched the
situation. . -".'
The prohibition enforcement law to
provide measures for enforcing the
war-time prohibition act now in force
and the constitutional amendment ef
fective January 16 next, was finally
passed by the senate and house last
week and sent to the president for
signature. The president sent It to
Attorney General Palmer for a ruling
as to ts constitutionality, which has
been attacked. That is where the bill
is now. It will become effective Im
mediately upon fts approval by the
president.
The Internal revenue bureau, con
templating that Attorney General
Palmer will approve Jhe bill and the
president sign it, Is preparingits plans
to carry it out. Confidential instruc
tions are being issued to all its agents
as to methods for carrying out the law.
The agents are being given copies of
the law, the department's interpreta

them as to what they can do and what
they can not do in enforcing it.
Internal Revenue Commissioner
Roper has not yet- selected the man

He is still looking about for a man who
