as the first test before the courts of the provisions of the new national de- fense act.
 Emerson, who is an architect, en- ited Nov. ?, 1915, in Troop B, First squadron, cavalry, of the state militia.
 When the militia call was sent out by President Wilson OF June IS, and the guardsmen were asked to take the federal oath of service for six years, Emerson refused, saying he could not dO so without seriously injuring his business.
 Declined 10 Give His Name.
 He was at first allowed to return home by the state authorities, but later was notified by the war depart ment that his refusal to take the oath did not discharge him from his obliga- tion to obey the orders of the presi- dent. On going to the Birmingham camp Thursday to inquire regarding hi9 status, Emerson was asked to give his name and company. He declined and was placed in the guard tent. His counsel at once asked for a writ of Eabeas corpus and Emerson was brought before the court, under guard, today.
 Refusal Regarded as InsoIence.
 Colonel Sweetser of the state forces told the court that Emerson's conduct in refusing to answer questions was regarded as insOlence to a superior officer and that inasmuch as he had not been discharged, and his term of enlistment had not expired, he was subject to military authority under the Dick bill.
 Claims He is Not Amenable.
 Emerson's counsel, on the other hand, contended that the new national defense act passed June 9 abolished the state militia. He pointed out that the act specifically set fort hthat no militia would be recognized except such as was organized in accordance with the terms of the act. The act provided a ne woath, he said, which the defendant declined to take, making him, there fore, counsel argued, no longer subject to militia authority.
 Judge Dodge remarked that the case presented certain difficulties, but that on the evidence as presented he would order a writ to issue in behalf of Elm erson. Because of certain technical faults in the papers, however, he would continue the case until tomorrow morning, he said.
