BURLESON REMOVES ELEVEN CLERKS FOR POLITICAL ACTIVITY

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2. Albert S. Burleson, postmaster-general, Wednesday ordered the removal of 11 clerks In the Chicago postoffice for having solicited or caused to be solicited sums of money from the public and for having published or caused to be published "false and slanderous statements relative to the postal service." The clerks whose removal was ordered by the postmaster-general are

Pierce E. Butler. Fred Anderson, Solomon A. Cohen, John J. Stewart. Harold Hoffman, Jay J. Adams, Frederick C. Albrecbt, John J. Byrne. Thomas J. Drury, Leo E. George and Frank R. Halas. Evidence obtained by postoffice Inspectors, Mr. Eurleson sald, showed that the Chicago Postoffice Clerks' union had attempted to solicit contributions of $100 from a number of business men "who were patrons of the Chicago Postoffice. Policies in Violation. "The postmaster-general said that such practices were in violation of a warning given by the department In 1918 and consequently the removal was ordered "in conformity with the notice promulgated at that time." The postmaster-General made public the report of inspectors, which says: "The advertising campaign carried on by the Chicago Postoffice Clerks' union has been misleading to the public, uncalled for and reprehensible, nd was continued or renewed both in their meetings and in the public press after we had interviewed them and expressed our opinion fully to them in regard to the matter. We believe their conduct in this rerpect fully Justifies removal, but In the matter of the soliciting of contributions from the public there is undeniable evidence of distinct and flagrant violations of Section 171 of the postal laws and regulations, which have not been responded to satisfactorily and cannot be condoned."
