to say that his department had re

Senator C. R. Kberhard and Repre

I The order of removal was served at
noon, without previous notification,

This Is all simply a pretext.
"The statement that we failed to put
into effect the wago schedule is dis-
Coition. We announced an increase on
this and told us to do the best we
could. Burleson's statement on the
wage schedule is a deliberate attempt
to distort the facts.
''Wo did refuse to nssent to a pro
posal made by Burleson's operating
board of the Western Union office to
increase telegraphic, rates, but it nev
er reached the form of a.i order. Bur
leson refrained from mentioning this,
and it may be the reason of the re
moval." The statement declared the action
of the postmaster general to be ''one
of the most despotic acts ih the his
tory of the government," and said
that his purpose evidently is to de
stroy the Rental Telegraph system.
The men appointed to take over the
property, it charged, knew nothing

Here is the substance of a state-'
ment contained In a recent report .
of fifty investlgjtoiB of the Amerl- j
can Red Cross working among the;
200.000 refugees gathered In and
about Paris. The report says:
"Most of tho refugee families man
age to - nourish, themselves on tho
government allowance and- their
small wages, but they are by no
means able to clothe themselves. Ay
the present prices of clothing in
France are prohibitive, the need for
this kind of assistance is obvious.
Accordingly, iwe decided to glvo food
only when special nourishment wan
ordered by a physician, but to con
tinue to look ufter the clothing need
as Imperative." '
