BERNIE, July 31. = Correspond ence of the Associated Press)-The words Long Live Wilson," and Long Live the Entente" were written on the walls of the meeting place of the Congress of Oppressed Nations which recently met at Prague. Al though the police hastened to remove them, they reappeared as if by mag ic
 The extent to which the revolu- tionafy ferment has increased in Austria-Hungary is shown by the text of the resolutions adopted by the Congress, copies of which have been received here. It is in the form of a proclamation and is said to be the first joint revolutionary procla- nation ever issued in the dual mon- archy. It says in part:
 "The assembled representatives unanimously declare that better future for this Nation is to be found basis of world democracy. real and sovereign government by the people, and a universal alliance of nations vested with the authority of arbitra- tion.
 "They reject most emphaically all treaties not sanctioned by the soy ereign will of nations. They are convinced that all peace for which they and all democracies are longing Can be righteous and durable only if the world puts an end to the exist ing unbearable domination of one nation over the other, and if the world makes it possible for nations to organize their relations to each other on the basis of equal rights and free conventions, in order that they may defend themselves against the

 The gathering was one of the most notable in the history of Prague comprising large delegations from all the oppressed clements within Austria Hungary. The Slovaks of Hungary sent party of 22 with the great Slovak poet Eviezdeslav. The Polish delegation numbered sixty, three from Silesia, one from Prus- sian Poland, and the rest from Gal ski and five deputies. The Croats and Serbs numbered a hundred with nine deputies. Among the 300 Jugo- Slavs were 60 Slovenes, seven Car inthians, 60 Styrians, and 100 Car niolans with four deputies.

 Practically nothing concerning the gathering was allowed to appear in the press, and the papers appeared with great white columns disclosing how the censors had suppressed all reference to the meeting. They an nOunced, however, that 8 arrests had been made; also that the crowds had succeeded in breaking the police cordons thrown around the gathering, and the measures finally adopted to disperse the meeting. A continuous struggle was carried on between the population and the police. Unknown hands decorated the linden trees with emblems of Slav fraternity.

MAIL ORDERS ALSO ARE UNDER
 SUGAR SAVING
Purposed to Regulate ln- terstate Business to Prevent Any Violation
 of the Rules.

(By Federal Food Administrator:)
 Mail order houses which do an in- terstate business have been request ed by the Food Administration to send into other States only such amounts of sugar as residents of those States are permitted by To- cal Food Administrators to pur- chase
 Until now mail order houses have been taking orders for 25 pound quantities of sugar for home can ming, regardless of the State from which they come or whether there is real need for sugar for canning in that State. In some States, out of regard for fruit crop conditions or for other reasons, sales of canning sugar are restricted to 10 or 15 pounds at single purchase. When resident of one of these States can obtain 25 pounds by merely mailing his order to city in another State he is defeatinig the purpose of the present regulations, which have been established because of the su- gar shortage.
 Federal Food Administrators have been instructed to furnish mail or der houses with copies of sugar reg ulations in their States, and the houses will conform to them in all orders sent to those States. All reg ulations, will be applied equally to mail order houses and retailers, in order to be fair to everybody con cerned. Federal Food Administra- tors who have a certificate system for sugar for canning may require the mail order houses to send su- gar into their States only on such certificates.
 Mail order houses are expected al so to conform to the rule permitting city dwellers to buy only two l pounds of sugar at one time for or l dinary household use, and countr, | people five pounds, save in district remote from the stores, when lOca 1 administrators may permit larger quantities to be sold.
