yster's A esthetic
Values Are Upheld
ANNAPOLIS, Md., March 21.-
(A)- The Maryland legislature
formally has come to the defense
of the oyster.
The senate Friday approved a
resolution which had passed the
house of delegates condemning
"libelous, untruthful and poison-
ous propaganda" disseminated
by a Battle Creek, Mich., cereal
company.
A copy of the resolution is to
be sent to the Michigan state
board of health. The Battle Creek
concern, the legislature was told,
sent out printed matter describ-
ing the oyster as "dangerous to
one's health and aesthetic sense."

Late Friday, however, he under-
went a change of heart and an-
nounced that since Prosecutor Har-
ry S. Toy "went down while fight-
ing for me, I'll fight for him."
The prosecutor collapsed in the
courtroom shortly after Tara had
been placed under arrest and his
testimony stricken from the record
until he elected to undergo cross-
examination.
Assistant prosecutor, carrying on
while their chief recuperates at his
home, said Tara would be recalled
to the stand. He was not to ao-
pear today, however. the naii uay
session being devoted chiefly to the
reading of Buckley's political ad-
dresses, begun Friday by the pros-
ecution. The addresses are intend-
ed by the state to prove motive.

Mueller always had the confidence
of the large body of his country-
men and with the late Dr. Strese-
mann is given credit generally for
having put over the Young plan
and evacuation of the occupied ter-
ritories. He was leader of the So-
cial Democratic party and a news-
paper man by profession.
Little known outside the confines
of the reich until the revolution of
1918, Hermann Mueller was raised
by that upheaval to a place of
prominence in the new Germany.
