TWO FORMER COLUMBIA
STUDENTS FOUND GUILTY
Were Charged with Conspiring to OBJ
struct Military Draft.

New York, June H.-The jury in the
Phillips. former Columbia University
students. charged with conspiring to
obstruct the operation of the selective
draft law. returned a verdict Of guilty
in federal district court tonight.
The jury deliberated I'VE hours and
recommended mercy in announcing the
verdict. A motion to have the verdict
set aside on the ground that the finding
was not in accordance with the testi-
mony. was made by Morris Hillquit. attor-
ney for the young men. Judge Mayer an
nounced he would hear arguments on the
motion next Friday.
In summing up Hilliquit tried to i'm
press the jury with the importance of
the fact that the leaflet opposing regis
tration had been written by the defen-
dants before President Wilson had sign
ed the selective draft law. May 49, The
lawyer commended II had been seized be-
fore the youths had had opportunity to
revise it. He urged 1t was not intended
to be published.
Harold A. Content. assistant United
States attorney. told the jury that an &C
quittal would be "tantamount to an in
vitation to repeat the offense" He said
that as a graduate of Columbia Univer-
sity himself. 1t was hard for him to prose-
cute the defendants. but that "these era
ven towards" were taught such prin-
ciples at Columbia.
Judge Mayer instructed the jury that
II they believed it was the intention of the
defendants to make changes in the leaf
let SO as to bring it within the law. then
1t must acquit the prisoners.
