Municipal Morals. By the Associated Press. KNOXVILLE, Tenn., August 20.—In reply to attacks upon moral condi- tions in_Johnson City, Mayor W. B. Ellison has written a warm letter to Col. C. M. Pearsall, inspector general, { National Home for Disabled Volun- iteer Soldiers, Johnson City, Tenn., in which the mayor bitterly excoriates the colonel. A copy of the letter has been furnished the Associated Press. “Personally,” says the mayor, “I would never expose the smoke screen 'which you have erected to conceal your attack on the bureau of war risk Insurance when you go_before the Senate committee that has al- ready heard Director Forbes’ version of the situation, but when you and others, in order to save your own ‘hides,! attempt to slander this city (Johnson City) I feel it my official ‘duly to expose the deception.” Klotz’ statements, which, he says, Pearsall claims to have verified, that liquor and drugs are freely vended in Johnson City, and that prostitutes are not restrained, but admits that isome drugs and liquor have been | clandestinely sold, a condition that | exists, perhaps, he says, in all cities. The mayor charges that the colonel has the same conditions to contend with on the sanitarium grounds. There are only.a few bad women in Johnson City, and the hand of the law has been laid heavily upon them. “What would you do with them, colo- nel, cremate them?” askes & mayor. Lawbreakers, the mayor: charge: have been driven to setk mew fiel and, according to the investigation of the bureau of war risk Mmsurance, they found a market, bootleggers es- pecially, on the sanitarium grounds. The. mayor alleges he has received a letter from sanitarium inmates con- veying the information that nine bootleggers were captured on sani- tarium grounds in one night. Another wrot “Col. Pearsall suggests you resign, but if he.wishes the patients here to be properly fed and cared for, I would suggest he resign.” 5 POST FOR DR. G. E. Dr. Geot E.
