HERE'S THE RULES
FOR NEWLY-WEDS
MARRIED SINCE JULY 20 TO
BE ScRUTlNIZED.

The provost marshal general has
made the following ruling relating to
claims of exemption on account OF
marriage since July 20:
Question: Can person married
since July 20 base a claim for dis
charge on that ground?
Answer. Marriage is not of itself
a valid ground for making claim of
discharge.
A man whose wife is mainly de
pendent on his daily labor for sup
port may claim exemption on that
ground. But dependency is matter
of fact The rule does not ask, 'Is
the husband, as a matter of law, liza
BILE to support the wife?' 1t asks
as the wife as matter of fact main
ly dependent on the daily labor of
her husband for support? Only the
exemption boards can determine this
fact. Where dependency is claimed
and the circumstances show mar
20 by a man whose number is high
on the available list, the actual fact
of dependency must be closely scru-
tiniZed.
Moreover, by section 6 of the act
of May 1Ss 'any person who =
evades or aids another to evade the
requirements of this act' is guilty
of misdemeanor; and local boards
are authorized TO warn persons who
claim discharge on the ground of
marriage contracted since the date
of the act that both parties are liza
BILE to prosecution under this provis-
ion if, in fact, the marriage was con-
tracted solely with the intent to
evade the performance of military
duty.
