What Austrian Socialists
Would Like to Swing

n the recent meeting between the
delegates of the Austrian Socialist5
and the leader of the Dutch Socialis':
Troelstra, the Austrian Socialists sub.
mitted a memorandum in which they out.
lined the attitude of their party toward
the war and the peace terms for which
they stand.
According to the Austrian Socialist
memorandum, the treaty of peace is TO
contain the following provisions:
1.-THE establishment of a league Of ma
tions that would carry out international
disarmament; that would submit all differ
ences between states to court Of arbltra-
ton; that would confront each state of
Tending against international law with the
combined forces of the league of nations.
mo annexation whatever and solution of
all territorial questions the lines of
self determination OF peoples
NO contributions whatever equal lib
erty of economic development for all peo-
plies, avoidance of economic wars.
The memorandum further declares:
ave demand the transformation of Aus
ria-Hungary into a federation of autono-
nous peoples and the creation of league
of free Balkan nations. We reject al an
nexaton By the Central Powers of the bor-
der peoples detached from Russia. We
have fought the treaties Of Brest and
Bucharest both in Parliament and in the
press. and we will vote against any provi-
sion involving annexation or violence.
I'm SO far Alsace-Lorraine, Italy,
Poland and the tropical colonies are con-
cerned, our view is that a complete demo
cratic peace corresponding to Socialist
principles must decide these questions also
in the sense of self determination of peo-
pies. But we have no illusions as to the
fact that this demand cannot be enforced
under present conditions. Every effort
must be made to enforce the principle Of
self-determination, but not at the eiysnss
of prolonging the war;"
New-York tribune., 1918-09-01

Spain one Of the Allies. According to
this correspondent
Representatives of the American and En-
tente governments see a decided trend in
Spain toward the, Allied viewpoint. Some
go so far to predict. in spite OF the no.
torious pro-German sentiment there, that
Spain will be definitely aligned with the
Allies if the war continues another year.

which, in the opinion of the mern oers Of the
Left wing Of parliament "helps no one but
German spies and pro-German propagan-
dsts." The entire affair has eliminated in
the strike of all Reformist, Republican
and Socialist deputies, who refuse to return
to parliament unless the government re-
vokes the law.
The latest Spanish papers to reach this
country show that the strike of the "left"
parliamentary deputies in Spain is still in
full swing and that from all over the
country the parliamentary strikers are re-
ceiving congratulations for their brave
stand. and that meetings are being or
ganized everywhere pledeing support against

game warden Of Montgomery county.
Maryland. wanting to be fair to
Washington gunners, has served
notice that the state law will be en-
forced this fall.
Under the law, he stated, nonresi-

clerks fee, the licenses being good
for one year from June /. Licenses
are issued by the clerk of the circuit
court. Persons found cunning with
out license are subject to q penalty
Of SIS and costs.
"Even residents Of the state are re-
quired to pay the license tax" said
the deputy game warden. The state
tax, which permits shooting In any
part of the state, is $50. while the
county license is 31.10."
Owners and 1essees Of land and
their children do not have to pay q

he stated, but cannot run on any other
property without first taking out q

Columbine Takes Measure of
Corn Tassel-McT Taggart
Hindrance to Favorite
By w. ]. Macbeth

Favorites won their usual share of
yesterday afternoon. but the upset of
Two particularly popular choices some
what squared accounts for the bookies
Tor the drubbing the long suffering and
general public handed them last Satur-
day On that occasion favorites swept
the card.
Johnny McTaggart. who on occasion
has ridden like a Tod Sloan, but of
late has been riding more like the
greenest of green apprentices, shared
the odium of the two particularly pro-
voking upsets. In the fourth race he
was clearly outridden by little Ensor
when Columhine took the measure OF
oorn Iassel in very exciting duel
through the last furlong of a mile
race. He was beaten badly again in
the closing event when he failed to
land the brackets with Hannibal. the
odds-on favorite and supposedly the
best bet Of the meeting.
Robinson an Obstacle
The experienced F. Robinson Up on
II. z. Whitney's Blue Laddie was the
stumbling block on this occasion. In
behalf of McTaggart It must be said
that Hannibal refused to run when
called upon. 1t looked like an off day
TOR the horse rather than the fault of
the Jockey. But in the fourth race
McIaggart had no excuse. He was a
nlndrance rather than help to Corn
tassei, whlch would have been far bet
ter on with a trunk on his back.
McTaggart's ride in the fourth race
was tragedy-almost a crime. He
broke in front, running, in start
which could only be called fair by a
stretch of the imagination. He had an
OUTSIDE position, with plenty of room,
yet ne pulled up almos. immediat tely
and dropped back with the trailers.
Hueland then set a fast pace to the
scratch turn, closely pursued by Co.
lumblne and Orestes. They ali went
very, very wide on the stretch turn
1T was a grand opportunity for McTag-
gart-an opportunity of which he
availed himself.
McTaggart hugged the rail closely
with Corn Tassel, making up much Of
the ground he bad thrown away shortly
alter the start. 1t enabled him to gel
up, quickly with the leaders. Corn Tas-
sell gallant and game fnisher. hooked d
up with Columbine an eighth from
nome. The Wilson gelding held a
sllght advantage over the Widener filly
a sixteenth from home, and the most
ardent supporters of Columbine were
ready to cry quits. Then, for no an.
parent reason, McTaggart lashed his
mount. las
With the first blow Corr Tassel an
peared to hang. Columbine was on
even terms again. They raced as even
~ as you can imagine from there to
the finish, the lead alternating at everv
nod Coiumbine happened to be down
as they crossed the finish. Corn Tassel
should have won easily with any sort
