BURLESON SAYS COL. ROOSEVELT DODGES ISSUE Gets Many Complaints on T. Rs Writings, but Has "No Case."

WASHINGTON, D. C, May 2!. Postmaster General Burleson issued a tatement asserting that Col. Roose.velt evaded the issue and was misleading in his "preliminary" reply to the demand that he prove his charge that the administration was punishing publications which upheld the war but told the truth about administration failures, while it failed to proceed against those who opposed the war or attacked the allies but defended inefficiency. "Mr. Roosevelt's reply of May 11, which lie then termed 'preliminary,'" Mr. Burleson said, "in the main evades the issue presented and Is thoroughly misleading. He names the New York Tribune, Collier's, and the Metropolitan magazine in a way which creates the impression that these publications have been the objects of improper discrimination' by the postoffice departraent. "This department has taken no action against Collier's. This department has taken no action against the Tribune. Censorship Aided Sales. "The department has taken no action against the Metropolitan magazine. "With respect to this magazine, the Incident referred to by Mr. Roosevelt occurred after the magazine had passed through the mails and not a copy offered for mailed failed of transmission. It cannot be said that the magazine lost sales on that account at

lant ume. on the contrary, more copies of the March issue were sold on account of the publicity given the magazine. The injury therefore must have followed as a result of public disapproval of the matter contained in that issue. "I have yet to learn of a patriotic reader, unless It be Mr. Roosevelt, who approved the publication In that issue of the article "Is America Honest?" by William Hard. Appreciated by Germany. "I am reliably informed that Germany highly appreciates the Hard article so highly, in fact, that her propagandists have tianslated it into German, Spanish, Portuguese, and the Scandinavian languages, and are now flooding Mexico, South America, and other countries with it. "So much for Mr. Roosevelt's first charge. Now what of the second? "The press of every complexion always should have the widest latitude for criticism of the acts of all public officials. This principle is constantly kept in mind in the administration of the espionage act and disposing of complaints thereunder. Many Complaints Against T. R. ''The postoffice department has received possibly more complaints from the public alleging that Mr. Roosevelt's articles were In violation of the espionage act than it has against the Hearst newspapers. All but two of the articles in the Hearst papers referred to be Mr. Roosevelt were published before the passage of the espionage act (June 15, 1917.) and some of them before out entry into the war. "Mr. Hearst, through his vast newspaper circulation and writings along lines familiar to the public, and Mr. Roosevelt, with the prestise of an expresident of the United States, writing along entirely different but equally well known lines, have each said things, whatever the motive, that a casual reader might believe were in conflict with the espionage act. But those whose responsibility it is to enforce this law do not believe a case could be made to stand against either of thorn in the courts. Denies Aiding Hearst. "If Mr. Roosevelt means to intimate that I was Instrumental, directly or indirectly, in obtaining for Mr. Hearst, or any company or association with which Iip Is connected, a restoration f news or cable facilities which lr-ii been withdrawn from him by the allied governments, he is in error. I will say further, I know of no one who performed such a service for him."

STOMACH TROUBLES ARE DUE TO ACIDITY Telia Safe, Ortnln. Se-dy Ilelief For Acid Intllareatlon.

So-called stomach troubles, such as Indigestion. pas, sourness, stomachache and inability to retain food are in probably nine cases out of ten, simply evidence that ' excessive secretion of acid is taking place in the stomach, causing' the formation of gas and acid indigestion. Gas distends the stomach and causes that full, oppressive," burning" feeling1 sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid trritatis and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely in the excess development or secretion of acid. To stop or prevent this souring of the food contents of the stomach and to neutralize the acid, and make it bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia, a good and effective corrector of acid stomach, should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water after eating or whenever gas. sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens the stomach and neutralizes the acidity in a few moments and is a

perfectly harmless and inexpensive remedy to use. An antiacid. such as bisurated magnesia which con be obtained from any druggist In either powder or tablet form enables the stomach to do its work properly without the aid of artificial digestions. Magnesia comes in several forms, so be certain to ask for and take only Bisurated Magnesia, which is especially prepared for the above purpose. Adv.
