and Quickest Of Recruits
At Camp Deveas

Fred Hayo, who was drafted for a
soldier against his trust in the Con-
stitution of the United States, to force
him to fight; for another country" is
reported. as being one of the most
amenable and best drilled recruits at

sHayo, who lived at 259 PARROT ave-
nue. at the time of his examination
filed claim for exemption upon the
grounds that cit is against my trust
in the Constitution of the United

ject under this law for service in de-
Tense of foreign countries"
He further added in his claim to
the third division board: "As the law
violates my rights and liberty guar
anteed me under the thirteenth
amendment of the constitution. I
recognize only one flag and one coun-
| try and that is the U. S. A., first last
and all the time
Upon his exemption being denied
Hayo went to Camp Devens among
the second contingent. Reports from
that mobilization declare that he is
among the. keenest and brightest OF
all to apprehend and carry into execu-
