ASK Death PENALTY
FOR DRAFT RIOTERS
District Attorney Gathering Evi,

Tulsa, Okla, August 6.-The death
penalty will be asked for those who
took part in the recent uprising
against the draft, according to an
nouncement made today by District
Attorney McGinnis, at Muskogee.
Evidence is being gathered against
them.
A half carload of dynamite. be-
lieved to have been intended for use
by the working class union in their
scheme of terroriZation, was captured
at Spalding by deputy sheriffs today
At bay in the brush near Holden
vile, a band of 26 alleged members
of the working class union are sur
rounded by officers, and a posse in
automobiles are rushing to aid in the
capture.
Quiet reigns tonight IN Seminole
County where Sasakawa has been
headquarters of posse men engaged
in putting down the draft resisters.
Twenty prisoners were brought from
Sasakawa to Holdenville today.
In Hughes County two men were
killed and two others wounded in
rising of draft resisters last night.
Bands of draft resisters are said to
be terroriZing tonight the section

The policy will be applied regardless
OF the strain it will put upon neutrals.
The conscription of laboring men is
provided for in the selective service
act. 1t is not expected by any Of the
officials in close touch with the labor
situation, however. that it will ever
have to be resorted to. But should
the time ever come when the program
of the government should be held up
by the impossibility of inducing
laboring men to resume work, this

TEST DRAFT LAW,
SENATOR ADVISES
Hardwick Tells Georgians to Resist
Conscription In Courts

Il am in sympathy with the ef-
forts Of Georgians to test the seIectlve
draft law in the courts, although /
do not believe in actual resistance. -
Senator Thomas W. Hardwick said
yesterday.
Senator Hardwick voted against the
aelective draft law. and has been one
Of its most consistent opponents. He
has lately introduced a hill providing
that the consent OF A conscript must
be obtained before he is sent to
foreign service.
II told the people Of Georgia at
mass meetings and through the news
papers that no matter how bad the
law. they should obey it implicitly.
Some Of them think they can secule @
recourse through the courts. / do not
think so. While believe the law op-
posed to American institutions and
principles, 1 DO believe it constitu-
uonal. 1 do not think it will be
overthrown in the courts. StiU, every
man who objects 10 a law has a right
to test it.
MY idea of recourse, and I told the
people this. is TO elect men from Presi-
dent down who will not pass such
laws"

The United States is not going to
prepare for peace in time of war.
Whatever peace offers, serious or not.

find the United States ready to pros

tive vigor.
No intimation came from the Presi-
dent yesterday as to the possibility
of his going before Congress with a
restatement of our war aims or an
outline of the peace terms we would
consider. Instead he pitched into the
preparations of war. He spent an
hour in conference with the new War
Industries Board.
