 KANSAS CITY, March 22.-CriticiZ- ism of the war departments answer to his charges that undue leniency was shown to conscientious Objeetors was voiced here tonight by Maj Rich ard B.

BAKER AIDED SLACKERS IN BIBLE GLASS SUBTERFUGE
Major Frank Knox, Editor of Manchester Paper, Sup

Cites Instances of Conscien- tious Objector Receiving Clemency Under Conditions
cBv Review Leased wlre,

MANCHESTER, N. H., March 2. - Maj. Frank Knox, recently returned to his position as editor of the Manches- ter Union, after his release from army service, in a signed statement tonight. said that he was prepared in general terms to support the accusation brought aginst Secretry of WI Bker by Nj. Dick Foster, that orders were issued to commanding officers of mo bilization camps in the United States which practically forbade effective handling of fake conscientious iobjec. tors who were inducted into the ua- tional 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- ton to observe the methods of hand ling these conscientious objectors, since l was a member of the division staff, serving as personnel officer, 9 the statement says:
 Officers Hands Tied
 "A considerable number of consci- U. With the position assumed by the gen eral conscientious ObjectOr to military service because of religious scruples there was perhaps a minimum of sym pathy, but at least there was under standing among the officers who had to deal with him.
 But from the commanding officer of the division down, there was feel ing of outraged helplessness when un- der 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 ac- quired religious scruple which forbade their bearing arms"
 Cites One Case
 The statement cites the case of a drafted man in Major KnOx's battliOn who said he belonged to some Bible society which forbade his bearing arms" and who refused to work in barracks. Major Knox says that he took the matter up with division head quarters through military channels and the man was ordered transferred to a company in the depot brigade, made up exclusively of "ObjectOrs."

CBy Review -.eased Wire)

PARIS, March 22-Announcement was made by the peace conference commission on International labor leg islation late today that the only thing remaining for the commission to do is to draw its final report to the peace conferences The commission today completed consideration of the pro pOsals laid before it by a deputation from women's organizations The meeting today was the thirty fourth and was presided over by Samuel Gompers
 In recognition of the principle of self-determination in labor questions. the labor commission today introduced a clause into its report providing that no recommendation or draft shall in any case be accepted or applied so as to diminish the protection already ac- corded to workers by the existing laws of any of the high contracting parties"
 Safeguard Existing Laws.
 The intention of the clause is to safeguard legislation already in effect in any country which might be re garded by that country as better for the workers than that recommended by the labor bureau. The report was largely a discussion of the seamen's act in the United States and recogni- tion of the possibility that the bureau might have recommendations on that subject which was improving the con- ditiOn of seamen generally, would not measure up to the standard fixed by the United States.
 The labor commission has definite ly decided that the findings of the bureau must be supported by moral suasiOn in countries where special problems exist, rather than by invok- ing any force the League of Nations might offer

official premises in Berlin as a re-
suit of the resolution adopted by the
municipal council.
The debate on the motion. intro
duced by both Socialistic factions,
evoked a sharp protest from bour-
geoisie parties against the proposed
iconoclasm, especially as Chief Mag
istrate Wermuth, contrary to expecta-
lions, announced his Willingness to
accede to radical wishes. declaring
the wallis of public buildings should
only be adorned with symbols of the
prevailing authority of the state in
stead of those bygone rulers.
The democratic deputies attempted
to shame the radicals by telling them
that even the French refused to stoop
so low as to remove the likenesses of
the Bourbons and that Napoleon's
tomb was still a revered shrine.
Just to what extent the resolutions
affects the long rows of marbled Ho-
henzo1lerns which flank both sides of

WEATHER IN KANSAS
AbnOrmnIIy Low Temperatures
Have Prevailed Over Kansas.

Abnormaliy cool, cloudy weather
prevailed over Kansas this week, with
frequent rains in most parts that-made
it unfaVorab BILE for all farm work and
the growth and development of spring
planted grains. No severe frost or
freezing weather was reported, how
ever.
The excellent conditions of the
wheat was maintained and to a Ger
tain extent improved by weather con-
ditions of the week. Complaint is
made here and there in the eastern
part of lodging in rich ground and
signs of rust have appeared in d few
localities, but there is not enough of
either to cause any serious apprehen-
sion at this time. In the southeastern
counties fully half the wheat is in full
head and heads are showing here and
there in the central and northeastern
counties. large per cent of it is in
the boot in the central third and in
most western counties it is jointing,
while in some along the Colorado line
it is still stooling.
Oats and barley are uniformly fine
in the western two-thirds of the state.

THEY STAND (. THE TEST
OF HARD WEAR

4275 miles is the distance walked by
H. M. Foreman on one pair of Neolin
Soles. MIR. Foreman, who is postman
in Allentown, Pa, says The shoes with
Neolin Soles gave me continuous serv-
ice or 9H months, during which time
| averaged Is miles day. Ordinary
soles last me about one month.
If lou are hard on shoes, follow MIR.
Forenan's example and buy them with
Neolin Soles. These soles are created
by Science to be especially tough and
durable. Therefore, Neolin-soled shoes
wear long time, and so cut your shoe
bills down. Good shoe stores carry
them in many styles for men, women,
and children.
And have your old shoes -bottomed
with Ne0lin Soles. Remember-they
are comfortable and waterproof, also.
Neolin Soles are made by The Good

who make Wingfoot Heels-guaranteed
to outwear all other heels.
