Knox Substantiates Foster Accusation Says War Chief Shielded Com mon Slackers- Says "Se- cret Orders" Developed Feeling Of Outraged Helplessness.'

MANCHESTER. N. H.. March 22- Major Frank Knox, recently returned to his position as editor of the Man chester Union, after his release from army service, in a signed statement tonight said that. he was prepared in general terms to support the accusa- ton brought against Secretary of War Baker by Major Dick B. Foster. that orders were issued to practically for bade effective handling of fake con scientious objectors who were in- ducted into the national army under the draft law"
 ''During the first three months of my service in a mobilization camp in this country-that situated at Camp Dix-I was in an unusually good posi- tion to observe the methods of hand ling these conscientious objectors, since I was a member of the division staff, serving as personnel officer the statement says. "A considerable number of objectors were encountered. With the position assumed by the genuine objector to military service be- cause of religious scruples. there was perhaps a mininum of sympathy. but at leasts there was understanding among the officers who had to deal with him.
 Slackers Were Sheltered
 'But from the commanding officer of the division down, there was a feeling of outraged helplessness when under. explicit, secret orders from the secretary of war, we were compelled to permit men who were nothing but contemptible slackers, to find shelter behind the screen of a suddenly &C., quired religious scrupie which forbads their bearing arms"
 The statement cites the case Of q drafted man in Major Knox's battal- . ion, who said he belonged to -some bible society which forbade his bear ing arms" and who refused to work in barracks Major Knox says that he took the matter up with division headquarters through military chan . nels and the man was ordered trans . ferred to company in the depot bri gade, made up exclusively of "eb- jectors."

The ,unani- nous sentiment of officers who had to deal with such cases was, that each case should have been the subject of a courtmartial, in which the genuine objector would readily be separated from the cowardly stacker

Postal Secretary Says Real Cause of Dismissal Refusal To Obey Postmaster's Or
 ders-Do Not Abandon
 Fight.
IRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, March 22.-Differ- ences between the management of the Postal Telegraph and Cable company and Postmaster General Burleson, acute ever since the government as- sumed control of the telegraph and telephone systems, eliminated today in an order by the postmaster general summariiy relieving the chief officers, directors and owners of the Postal company from all duties in connec- tion with government operation of their system.
 In the place of Clarence H, Mackay, president of the company, the post master general appointed A F. Adams president of the Kansas Home Tele- graph company, and president of the government general telephone and telegraph board, to take over man. agement of the entire postal system. Postoffice department officials said MT. Adams presented the order at the company's headquarters in New York today and took over control.
 Officials said informally they as- stunned the Postal company would seek to interfere with execution of the order by some court action. The of- ficers relieved of their duties under the government retain their connec- ton with the company itself, the post master generals authority extending only to the actual control and opera tion of the company's properties. Last January, Mir. Burleson removed Ed ward Reynolds, vice president and general manager of the Postal, on the ground that he was obstructing oper- ations under the government.
 NEW YORK, March 22.-Refusal by the Postal Telegraph company to sane tion an increase of telegraph rates it deemed unjust, and award of ten per cent wage increase to employees, in stead of the five per cent advance ordered by Postmaster General Burle- son. was said tonight by William $. Deegan, secretary of the company, to be "the reasons for the removal to- day by MT Burieson of Clarence Mac kay, president, and others officials of the company.
 Mir. Deegan declared in a statement 'sthat we shall not surrender or aban- don our fight against Burleson's usur- pations"
 The order removing the officials was served at noon today without previous notice, said the statement, which con- tinued.
 Burleson gives a a reason for the order that we have failed to carry out | his orders and instructions. We dc not know what BurlesonS refers to in 1 the way Of orders and instructions This is all a pretense.
 1 Deliberate Distortion
 sThe statement by Burleson that we failed promptly to put into effect the wage schedule is distortion. We an nounced an increase in wages of all our employees March 5, effective from ! January 1, which was more generous than that ordered by Burleson. The Burleson schedule was based entirely on the Western Union plan of organi- zation, which is different from ours and it was Impossible to apply to oul

uses.
The West indies trade is also re-
ceiying considerable attention, the re-

DAILY HEALTH TALKS
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY FRANAL-N 7 -.l-1-1, II. D.

Tt can be said broadly that most human
ills begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means good
health, and poor digestion means bad
health. The minute your stomach fails to
properly dispose of the food you eat,
troubles begin to crop out in various forms.
Indigestion and dyspepsia are the COM
monest forms, but thin, impure blood,
headaches, backaches, pimplcs, blotches,
dizziness, belching, coated tongue, weak
ness, poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs,
celds and bronchitis are almost as common.
TLero il but one way to have good health,
and that is to put and keep your stomach
in good order. This is easy to do if you
take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery 1t is wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and is so safe to take, for it is
made Of roots and herbs. DR.. Pierce, of
Buffalo, N Y, stands behind this standard
medicine, and it is good to know that so
distinguished physician is proud to have
his name identified with it. When you
take Golden Medical Discovery, you are
getting the benefit Of ths experience ef 3
doctor whose reputation goes all around
the earth. Still more, you get a temper
anee medicine that contains not drop of
alcohol or narcotic of any kind. Long ago
DIR. Pierce combined certain valuable
vegetable gredients-without the use of
alcohol-so that these remedies always
have been strictly temperance medicines.
If piles are torturing you, get and use
Pierce's Anodyne Pile Ointment. The
quick relief it gives is hard to believe until
you try it. If constipated, DR.. Piercea
Pleasant Pellets should be taken while
using Anodyne Pile Ointment. Few in
deed are the cases which these splendid
remedies will not relieve and usually over
come. They are so good that nearly
every drug store has them for sale.
