New York. March GA special TO the

there has been some friction between
Rear Admiral Watson and officers Of his

summarily detached from the command OF
the Bennington and ordered home for al

though 1t is said Commander Taussig MAS

Rear Admiral Watson several months
ago desired Commander c. c. Cornwall TO
act as his chief of stan and assigned him
TO the duty hut the department disap
proved his action. Only recently the de-
partinent ordered Captain Charles Thorn

miral Watson transferred Captain James
NJ. Forsythe from the Baltimore to the
Brooklyn. and, 1t is said gave us an ex-
pianation of his action that II was in COM

He was temporarily relieved from the

we'll as some physicians. consider the

posed to be the first essential.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is fool
ish and unscient!hc to recommend diet
ing to man already suffering from star
walton because indigestion itself starves
every organ, nerve and fibre in the
body.
What people with poor digestion most
need is abundant nutrition. plenty of
good, wholescme, properly cooked food
and something to assist the weak
