BERGER CANDIDATE 3a MIN.
 AFTER SECOND UNSEATING

Milwaukee, Jan. 11.-Less than 30 minutes after the United Press had announced the second unseating by Congress of Victor l.. Berger, as Re- presentative from the Fifth Wiscon- sin District, he was candidate for re- election.
 The executive board of the Socialist party of Milmaukee was in session awaiting the report and resolution placing Berger in nomination was has tily drafted and sanctioned by the committee.
 Prospects today were, however, that the Wisconsin seat will remain empty for the remainder of the term to which Berger was first elected year ago.

War Grafter Gets Away With
 Huge Sum of Money.
Funds Collected to Aid Soldiers Used by specuIator With Mayors
 Aid

Vienna.-Mayor Reumann has just disclosed to the. Vienna city council a loss to the city of 100000 crowns through a business venture undertaken by former council headed by Mayor Weisskirchner.
 On the beginning of the war, Mayor Weisskirchner organized a committee to collect public subscriptions for the relief of soldiers and their dependents. It is charged that Weisskirchner ad- vanced huge amounts from this fund as we'll as city moneys to Hans Hafner, who undertook to exploit several schemes for the benefit of Vienna.
 Among Hafners ventures was the operation of a large plant for the pro- duction of artificial milk and factory to manufacture footwear from patent ed artificial leather. A building was erected for the milk process scheme, but it was never put in operation. while the shoe factory proved a dead loss.
 To cover its losses, 1t is charged, Mayor Weisskirchner drew upon funds raised by needlework guilds and upon other charities all over the country, and also from the profits of municipal war kitchens without acquainting tbe opposition members of the council of his action.
 No accounting of the charity funds was ever made, so the use of those funds was not discovered until the present government took office.
 Weisskirchner and his associates have been called upon to explain these transactions. Meantime the city is be- ing sued by manufacturers in Slovakia for vast quantities of artificial leather fabrics, which they furnished to pro- vide Hafner with material for manu- featuring shoes.

SCOPE OF FOOD LAW VIENNA IS FLEECED
Misunderstanding as to Applica-
 ton of Act.
Does Not Affect Foods or Drugs Con- sumed in State Where Manu-
 factured.

Washington.-The federal food and drugs act does not apply, as many peo- pie suppose, to foods and drugs which are manufactured and produced in one state and not thereafter shipped out of that state that is, that are consumed within the state where produced. Such foods and drugs are subject to state laws.
 The provisions of the federal food and drugs act do apply to the foods and drugs which G) are shipped or delivered for shipment from any state or territory or the District of Columbia into any other state or ter ritory or the District of Columbia, (2) are shipped or delivered for shipment from any state or territory or the Dis trict of Columbia to any foreign coun- try; (3) are being imported into the United States; or (4) are manufac- tured, sold, or offered for sale in the District of Columbia or any territory of the United States.
 The words 'food'' and "drug" as de- fined in the federal food and drugs act have a somewhat different meaning from the popular understanding of those terms. For instance, water un- der the food and drugs act is classed as food. The term flood" includes all articles used for food, drink, cOnfec- tionery, or continent by man or oth- CT animals, whether simple, mixed or compound. The term "drug" includes all medicines and preparations recog- nized in the United States pharma- copoeia or national formulary for in- ternal or external use, and any sub- stance or mixture of substances in- tended to be used for the cure, mitiga- ton or prevention of disease of either man or the animals.

THINKS WOMEN WILL |. CLEAN UP POLITICS

c. M. Stoddard, one of the Repub- lican candidates for the state senate, believes that the woman element will do more for the purification of politics and extemination of graft and corrup- ton than all the laws against those evils and the prosecution of violators of the laws.
 He has found also that the women are of more inquiring mind than the men voters. for he says: They ask more legitimate, deep, we'll thought out and serious questions than assail the candidates from the men. They seem to take deeper interest in poli- tics or in the essentials of politics"
 He finds also that there are fewer hereditary" voters among the pom- en; that is, voters who will vote A party ticket only because their fathers voted it. They are preparing to vote for candidates only because they be- lieve them to. be better qualified.
