Baker has informed the senate that
It would be necessary to examine
more than 22,000 records and re"
quire about tlt-ee weeks to make a
report on the court martaii cases
tried in the army during the war
The information was called for in

This resolution is interpreted by
the department to refer to the maj
or offenses tried by the general
court martial.. Under the interpre
tation thus placed upon the re
solution it will be necessary to ex
amine about 22,000 records and ap
proximately three weeks will bp re
quired to prepare the report. If the(

ail minor offences tried by special

essary to examine about 350,000
additional records, in thip country
and iu France, and the preparation
of the report will require several

Figure it up in dollars and cents and see what you lost by
not having a botton of Ballard's Horrhound Cough Syrup at
