On those thtee days, more than 50,000 men were exam- ined or rounded up for questioning. When it was all over, 16,505, “draft dodgers” either had been. packed off to camp or were held for trial. All of this happened in a period when only 10640846 men had CLOTHES that are CLEANED OFTEN—Wear Longer!

Aside from the fact that World War I was a shooting war and this, ' so far, isn’t for the United States, | draft evasions follow pretty much | lho same pattern. Most delinquen- | cies arise from ignorance of the law or simple indifference to it. One fellow investigated recently | was in jail and didn’t get his mail; another was snowed in and couldn’t | report for induection; another moved | and failed to leave a forwarding address; a fourth just wrote his| board: “Dear Local Draft Board No. —: I never saw anybody go to murderers of us. Love.” When finally caught up with he | said he was just “having some fun” mnd went along to camp meekly :nough. Another said he didn’t be- lieve in the statute and “there isn’t anything in America worth fight- ng for anyway.” And so it goes. MOST OF IT UNNECESSARY It causes a lot of grief for the FBI and the Department of Jus- tice, but their only complaint is that most of it is unnecessary. Strict compliance of willing youths with the law would cut the delin- quencies to an insignificant num- ber. If the reported delinquents, who really are without blame, would report to their boards or the FBI as soon as they discover they are on the trouble list, it would cut that pumber in half.
