New Rules on Exemptions for Draft Evasion
Governor Harding warns county council of defense members to prevent mis representations in pursuit of draft exemptions. County attorneys over 30 will prosecute wrongful evasion, while marriage alone does not excuse a man from service. Exemptions require dependents on the state, and farmers claiming industrial grounds must show farming could not be run by others.
