THE PURE FOOD. SHOW

All winter the Housekeepers' AL
lance has been conducting an edu-
cational campaign for housewives.
The Parents League, of the public
schools, has established a cooking
class with special reference to prep
aration of food for children. Wom-
ems, clubs, through their federation
officers, have been dealing with such
problems as wrapped bread loaves,
economical buying, and studies of
nutritive values.
In line with all these efforts is
the Westfield Food Exposition, which
opens at the Arcade Auditorium this
afternoon. Officers of these organi-
cations have recognized it's value by
being present to greet the crowds
at its opening. They state that they
welcome such an event because of
its educational opportunities for the
housewife, because it will give her
chance to withess demonstrations of
cooking devices, because it will help
her distinguish what labels denote a
high standard of purity, and because
1t will afford her chances to hear
practical lectures on cooking.
Not only foods, but devices for
preparation of foods, methodS by
which kitchen efficiency may be in
creased, and modern household
equipment will be shown at the ex-
position. 1t affords a genuine op-
portunity for the progressive house.
wife to keep abreast of the times.

WARSH|PS ENFORCING
!. NEUTRALITY OF U. s.
Extraordinary Steps Taken by
Treasury Department to
Prevent Trouble.

Concentration of German reservists in
New York and Boston following tho
failure of Congress to pass the ship
purchase bill, increased activity aboard
the German merchant vessels "interned'
In those ports, and alleged attempts to
secure clearance papers under condi-
tions that were regarded as suspicious.
have caused the Treasury Department
to take unusual steps to check viola
ton of American neutrality.
Extraordinary precautions have been
taken. American warshps are assigned
to patrol off the harbors where there
exists any danger of violation of neu-
trality regulations.
Suspicion of gigantic plot to en-
bark the thousands OF German re-
servists aboard the merchant vessels
belonging to German interests and now
lying IN American harbors Is reported
to the state Department agents by rep
resentatives of the allied powers.
Would Dash to Sea.
Failure of the expectation that the
ship purchase bill would pass and own
crship of the German vessels be as
sumed by the United States was fol-
lowed by definite plans, it Is alleged.
for many of the vessels to dash to sea
without warning and run the gantlet Of
British and French warships lying out
side the harbors.
While there is nothing to prevent the
merchant ships of Germany now in
American ports from obtaining proper
clearance papers, even with munitions
of war in their cargoes. according to
competent authorities. the Treasury De-
partment officials are insisting upon
most careful scrutiny of every manifest
and a tightening of the regulations is
evident at every port
Denials are made in high quarters
that there is any significance to these
added precautions lest by implication or
otherwise bad faith is imputed to the
German government. but, nevertheless.
displomatic representatives of the allies,
alert to detect every menaCing move of
the enemy in this country, have called
the attention of the State Department
to the activities and apparent prepara-
tions aboard and about the German
vessels as we'll as to the concentration
of reservists in New York and other
points.
Saw Suspicious Activity.
Treasury Department officials. who
have been diligent to Illustrate suspect
ed conspiracy involving violation neu-
trality, arc understood to have reported
suspicious activities regarding the in
tended departure Of number OF YES
sells. Many reports have been received
of attempts to get around the neutrality
laws, and all collectors of customs have
been instructed to keep close watch.

BAN ON SALE OF RABBITS
This Section of New Game Code I:
Agreed Upon by Committee

The Game Committee aof the Senate
TINS morning held meeting to consider
certain proposed amendments to the
new game code recently passed by the
House.
David Pritchar9, president of the
United Sportsmen s Association, Scran-
ton, asked that the section prohibiting
the sale of squirrels and rabbits killed
IN this State be stricken out of the
bill Secretary Kalbfus, of the Statt
Game Commission, maintained that it is
unfair to permit rabbits to be killed in
pennsylvania and sold at time when
the State is importing rabbits for
breeding and to stock the preserves. He
said that at present the State is paving
for rabbits at the rae of 25 cents each,
and If they are permitted to be killed
for commercial purposes the farmer
boys and pot-hunting sportsmen slaugh-
ter them in great numbers and sell them
to the hucksters to be sold in the mar
ket for fifteen cents each.
The committee decided to retain the
section, and under it no rabbits killed
IN the State can be sold to anybody.
The law, however, does not forbid the
sale in Pennsylvania of rabbits killed
outside of the State.
Representatives of the Blooming
Grove Park Association, of Pike coun-
ty, which has large game preserves, ap-
peared before the committee and asked
an amendment permitting the killing
of ring-necked pheasants on private
preserves all the year round but
could not give satisfactory reasons to
the committee why this should be per-
mitted, and will be heard again.
