R STATION Arriving at London London, Sept, 12.—The dragnet of the military authorities to catch men | attempting to evade military service has been extended to Marylebone Sta- | tion, one of the great London term- inals. As the passengers poured out from the incoming trains yesterday military and civil police offi 1s sort- | ed the crowds, and, passing men ob. viously over military age, marched the suspects into a corral roped off in a section of the booking hall When batches thirty haa collected in the cor they were marched thro 1 the streets, guard- ed by Constables, to the police tion. Top-hatted for the most part, and many were able | to atiefy the authorities at once to their right to be at large. These were allowed to go to their offices. | Othe: who were not carrving their | papers were allowed to telephone to their offices and homes and relief par- ties with the necessary papers arrived at the polic: ation. At noon there were still about fifty men detained, some in the policemen’s canteen, others in the waliting rooms. | One by one these were released, as | they satisfied the authoritie The | names and addresses of others were taken, and the local police communi- cated with.

The morning trains to Marylebone bring many city men to work, and many protests were raiced against the caused. Several newspapers publish articles declaring against | these methods which The Star and The Daily News liken to German Za- bernism. The Star makes the follow- ing comment: H “We live in an inverted world, and new ecthics and a new legality are hav- | ing their full innings. At another time we should have been astonished at the new duty of wives, as explained by a recruiting officer at the Maryle- bone Police Court Saturday. In many cases, he sald, the escape of men liable to military service had | been promptly defeated by their own | wives or sweethearts who had shown their patriotism by writing to the re- cruiting officer. “ ‘These women the officer, ‘and men.’ “We have heard occasional protests from the feminist side against the | words of the marr crvice to ‘love, honor and obe we never before have seen It sugzested that a wife's duty should include ‘and to betray him to the police if occasion | offe The spectacle of Bathsheba | glving up Uriah to conscription and | proceeding to draw his separatlon | allowance may be approved by the new morality, but it is one which it will take some time to reconcile to the plain man’s conscience.’” The newspaper, which raids on railroad stations, places of entertainment, and other places of public resort contends that the round- ing-up process does not show the ! existence of a sufficient number of | slackers to justify methods whereby go0d citizens are hustled and herded in police stations. Figures collected | by one paper show that in three raids 419 men have been taken to the po- lice station with the result that six finally were brought before a magis- trate, the rest being released.
