Had No Money, Passed.

Abraham Luger's affidavit stated he
is f1atfooted and nearsighted, but was
passed by the board, and when he
pointed out his physical defects he was
told to come back the next day for an
other examination. Luger said a man
approached him as he left the boards
quarters and told him ito scrape to-
gether as much money as he could and
return for denomination in forty
eight hours. Luger swore he was
passed the second time when he brought
no money.
A similar experience is recorded in
the affidavit of Louis Deutch, who
stated life insurance companies have
refused to take him "as more than a
ten-year risk" because he suffers from
heart palpitation. When he informed
the examiners about his condition he
alleged he was told to return for an
other examination. and was met on the
sidewalk by the stranger who advised
him to return with money. He swore
he was passed physically fit the sec
ond time after he had failed to get any
money.

witness because of his knowledge of
the board records.

fidavits in District Attorney Swann's
office today alleging improper conduct

aminations by the board. One affidavit.
filed by Jacob Swirsky and sworn to
in the presence of Assistant District
Attorney Markewich. charged that

This statement. the affidavit alleged
was made after the drafted man had
passed a perfect physical examina-
ton"
Swirsky alleged Cherry told him ito
get the money quick and return with
it the next day" Swirsky alleged further
that 5000 was all the money he could
get together, and he gave this sum to
Cherry with a promise to obtain the
remaining 800 later.
