EXEMPTION CLAIMS OF MEN
MARRIED SINCE JULY 20
WILL BE SCRUTINIZED CLOSELY

The Provost Marshal General has
made the following ruling relating
to claims of exemption on account of
marriage since July 20;
Question Can a 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 mat
ter of fact The rule does not ask i,
rs the husband, as a matter of law,
liable to support the wife?" 1t asks,
rs the wife as a 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 a mar
riage hastily consummated since July
20 by man whose number is high
on the available list, the actual fact
of dependency must be closely scruti-
nized.
Moreover, by section of the act
of May IS, ANY person who 8
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 provi-
sion if, in fact, the marriage was con-
traeted solely with the intent to
evade the performance of military
duty.

vision OF Commissioner Colver. This
investigation is but ore of the phases
of the general food vesf'gaticn
which the president directed last
February In this letter the presi-
dent stated
Pursuant to the authority con-
ferred upon me by the act creating
the Federal Trade Commission, / di-
rect the commission, within the score
of its powers, to investigate and re-
port the facts relating to the produc-
tion, ownership, manufacture, storage
and distribution of foodstuffs and the
by-products arising from or in con-
nection with their preparation and
manufacture; to ascertain the facts
bearing on alleged violations of the
antitrust acts; and particularly up
on the question whether there are
manipulations, controls, trusts, com
binations, conspiracies, or restraints
of trade out of harmony with the law
or the public interest"
Cost of Milling.
The first subject to be taken up in
connection with this investigation is
the cost of flour milling.
DR. Il. o. Merchant. of the commits
sion, will be in Immediate charge of
this work. He will leave Washing
ton probably late this week with
corps of accountants for Minneapolis
He will establish headquarters in
Minneapolis. Another corps of agents
will leave some time next week. The
second corps will, for the time being
at least, make their headquarters In
Chicago.
No particular firm or body or or
ganization shall be Investigated as
such in this particular instance. but
If. in the course of its Investigations
conditions that might possibly be
construed as law violations are un-
covered. 1t will, as the president di-
rects, so report and take the neces-
sary legal steps. The matter of pos
sible illegalities, however, in the
present specific investigation of mill
ing costs is merely incidental to the
general work in hand.
Decision to go at once into the
matter OF milling costs was reached
following a conference with officials
of the food administration. who ex-
pressed themselves as especially de-
sirous that this be done. In this CON
nection it is probable that the com
mission will, in the near future, in
vestigate the baking industry in CO.
operation with the food administra
tion, which has already done some
work along this line.
