DROPS MEDICAL ADVISER

The Summary Dismissal of Dr.
Haven Emerson, medical adviser Of
the United States Veteran Bureau. who

speech at Columbus. Ohio, Monday
that the bureau was being made the
foot ball of politics." was announced
last night by Acting Director Leon
Fraser.
Col. c. K. Forbes, director of the bu-
reau, who is on an inspection trip to
the Pacific coast, declared, in a state
ment sent to the bureau for publica-
tion, that DIR. Emerson's charge that
100000 was being used for political
patronage "is unqualifiedly false"
Il expected some such silly state
ment from a disgrunt1ed employe,
whose services have proved unsatis-
factory" the statement said.
'"The facts are that I found the
medical division, under his direction,
in a chaotic condition little short of
a public scandal. He had $1,000 cases
awaiting action and was losing ground
every day, while sick and destitute men
clamored for aid. DR.. Emerson. though
of high professional medical capacity.
demonstrated such complete absence
of executive ability or administrative
common sense, that I was forced to
place the medical executive officer,
Lieut.. Col r. U. Patterson, in charge
of the division and to indicate to Dr..
Emerson that his services were no
longer desired"

TRY 1T

Brush your teeth, morning, noon and
night;
Wash your hands with all your
might;
Raise the windows before you sleep;
Take both more than once week.
Do not forget to change your clothes
And handkerchieves were made for
the nose;
Tea is considered an injurious drink
And coffee won't let you sleep a
wink.
Do not eat between your meals,
For If you do your head always reels;
Always have plenty of sleep each
night,
Then you can get your lessons right.
Always keep your finger nails clean;
Do not, your feet from water wean;
If you will try these very good hints,
Your cheeks will have the rosy tints.
And last of all your neck and ears.
Keep htem clean and you'll have no
fears.

Failure to Pay Deemed a Violation Of
the Treay Of Versailles, Which
the Commission Will Report to
the Allied Governments.

Paris.-Germany in her reply on
March % to the recent ultimatum of
the allied reparations commission, re-
fuses to pay the one billion marks

1t Is maintained In the German note
that the 20,OO0,OO0,OOO marks which
the peace treaty provided should be
handed over by May 1 has been more
than paid.
The note asks that a joint commits
sion of experts fix the value of the
German deliveries on Preparations ac-
count, but it declares that, in any
event, it would be impossible for Ger
many to pay 12,OOO,00O,OOO marks b.
the first of May.
The note concludes as follows: 'If,
after the experts have conferred, it is
established that there is deficit in
the payments by Germany, she is ready
to begin negotiations with the repara-
tons commission regarding the float.
ing of loan abroad"
The reparations commission met
Wednesday morning to consider the
German reply, which was transmitted
from Berlin Tuesday night.
The Germans failure to pay is
deemed violation of the treaty OF
Versailles, which the commission will
report to the allied governments. The
allies will then determine what meas
ures shall be taken.
1t is commented here that the Ger
man experts already have been heard
by the commission, which listened to
their arguments before fixing the
valuation of the German deliveries
credited as payments against the 90
OOO,OOOOO marks. This valuation.
therefore, was considered final, since
the treaty gives the commission sole
Jurisdiction In the matter.
The German reply does not answer
directly the commissions demand for
first payment of 1000, 100000 marks.
This point, however, is covered on the
face of Overpayment of the entire
amount, due by May 1.
