(By Annociated Prensa) | MIAMI, Aug. 20.—About 250 warrants have been drawn up {here for the arrest of Dade coun- ‘ty men who have played a dilly- | dallying game with the selective | Service law. “Until now the policy has been one of extreme leniency, but the jsime fo for stricter enforcement has come,” said Federal Cormis- sioner Roger Edward*Davis. “We will still accept reason- table excuses from _evaders who come in voluntarily.” | The warrants charge evasion of the law which requires selected jmen to undergo a’ year’s mili- | tary training, Davis said some j failed to answer questionnaires, other did not show up for induc- tion and some moved without no- tifying district headquarters of inew addresses. Once criminal action is started | excuses cannot be accepted, he i declared, the maximum penalty is a five year imprisonment or a $10,000 fine. Many of the county’s delin- | quent registrants were winter visitors or workers from other states, and the warrants will be served in various sections of the ; country. Davis ordered a man listed as | Boyden Lee Goode, 27, placed under $500 bond after his arrest at. Homestead, near here, on charges of evasion at Charlotte, | | North Carolina. | The Commissioner said Federal | agents quoted the man as saying he “didn’t believe in shooting} people,” and wouldn't register | even if given the chance. He | was locked up in the county jail. | OIE I SIS IMI | GREENE TURNING OUT MANY BOOKS Earle Greene, federal agent in charge of the Florida keys wildlife refuge. is reaching a point where it most of | his spare time from the duties | of a “seagoing game warden" to keep up with the writings of his prolific brother.
