SALE OF GAME Birds
IN DISTRICT OPPOSED
P. R. Bolton, of New York, Say.
Congress viii Be Asked to Act.

Scathing denunciation OF the practice
in the National Capital OF selling all
kinds Of game birds is voiced by P. r.
Bolton, of New York, who, in a COM
munication. points out that the Dis
trict Is the only city in the United
States which permits indiscriminate
sale Of game birds, and deplores the
fact in view Of the present need for
conservation.
Immediate efforts will be made to
urge Congress to enact corrective
legislation to prevent dealers from
selling those game birds which cannot
be sold in other cities.
"An OF the States and Territories" a"
Mr.. Bolton declares, forbid unre-
stricted sale of native wild game birds
for the reason that they are of great
aesthetic. economic and food value and
have been diminishing in number at an
alarming rate.
THE solution OF the problem is easy
and evident, for with a rigidly en-
forced law prohibiting the sale of
game in the District. expectation OF
game to this market from other States
would cease at once and a correspond
ing decrease in game killing in these
States would occur with a COM
mensurate increase in game

citizen Of Switzerland. not a German
subject. was the statement made at
the Swiss Legation yesterday in re-
sponse to an inquiry.
In other Informed circles 1t was
said that DR.. Muck was born in
wurEburg, Bavaria, where his father
was a magistrate. In 1867, according
TO this informant when DIR. Muck was
S-years-old. his father took out his
naturalization papers in Switzerland,
and the status of the son followed
that, of the father. Later. when
the Son had become a man. he OF his
own motion. It was explained. also
took out his papers, strengthening
his Swiss citizenship.
Only the confirmation of the fact
Of the Swiss citizenship OF DR.. Muck
could be obtained at the Swiss Lega-
tion and beyond that no discussion Of
the matter was to be had. It was
learned. however, that about two
years ago, since the war began. DR..
Muck obtained passports at the Swiss
Legation here for the purpose Of
foreign travel, but no particulars
could be had as to whether he used
the passports or where he went
abroad. 1t is known that he was for
a time director of the National
Orchestra at Zurich, and that he
has lived there at various intervals.

ing letter:

sion made by assertions concerning DR..

any one who cares to make inquiries
OF the proper authorities:
"Dr. Muck Is not a Prussian.
He is not an enemy alien OF the
United States
He is not an Official Of the German
government
He is not a citizen Of Germany.
while he was born in Bavaria. he
Is a citizen of Switzerland. as was his
father.
After careful investigation OF many
fantastic and pernicious rumors about
DIR. Muck that have been brought to
their attention. the Federal authorities
have found nothing to incriminate him
as a German agent or as having PEI
formed any act which is prejudicaI t.
the interests OF our country
For three years of the war he has
directed our cosmopolitan orchestra
with rare tact in almost daily re
hearsals and concerts. He has per-

Negro School Uses
Sweet Potato Bread

Tuskegee, Ala, Dec. s.-The bakery
at the Tuskegee Institute has been
successfully experimenting with sweet
potatoes as a partial substitute in
making bread. This bread is COM
posed Of approximately two parts
white -four and one part boiled, mash
ed sweet potatoes. The result of the
use Of this. combination has been the
saving Of about 200 pounds Of flour
each day, and there is no very ap-
parent difference between this bread
and the bread which Is made wholly
Of wheat -four.
The potato bread will be used ex-
clusively at the institution as a part
Of Tuskegse's program of war econ
