Mother Gives Up Store
to Exempt Drafted Son

Baltimore.-New phases Of attempt
ed draft evasion are constantly CROP
ping up in unexpected places. and
Justice NJ. Maurice Meyer did his bit
in foiling such attempts in the peoples
court in the case OF Mrs. Fannie Miller
against Isaac Rudusky and Samuel
Siegael.
From the evidence Mrs. Miller
bought property from Rudusky
through Siegael on April for the pur-
pose of establishing a grocery. On
April war was declared. and Mrs.
Miller was told that IL she established
a grocery and thereby became inde-
pendent Of her son. who was Of draft
age. he would have no exemption claim
and might be called to the colors. So
she decided not to enter the grocery
business and wanted to get back her
800 forfeit money. which had been
paid when the contract of sale was
signed. When the vendors declined to
refund she brought suit.
Justice Meyer told her in Diminishing
the suit that he would not become a
party to any draft evasion scheme.

Indeed, it is not unfair to say that the

morally responsible, in part, for those offences,
because of the secret information conveyed to

were trying to avoid our ships, as much as
possible.
For example, she sinks hundreds Of British

But you and I are not to be influenced bv
mllltarlst considerations, and we can see how
innocently the Allies may have misunderstood
the real attitude of our Government
40 tell them one thing in public and an
other in private, was calculated to mislead
Is 1t not SO?
Previous to the reelection of President
Wilson, Germany and Austria and Turkey
had sunk several of our vessels on the high
seas, and had caused the death of nearly 200
of our citizens on belligerent ships.
For months, there was first one excuse and
then another put forward by Ambassador
Bernstorff, for these sinkings and these
slaughters.
These excuses became so stale, and were so
manifestly 'nsincere, that they became the
subject of jokes in the daily papers.
Nevertheless, the suave Bernstorff continued
to be honored and feted; being received as
the distinguished guest, both by the Vice
President and the President.
During all those months prior to the No
vember election, the German dynamiters CON
tlnued their warfare against our munition
plants, destroying millions of property and
hundreds of lives.
We are now told that the Government pos
sesses the evidence showing Bernstorn's COM
plicity.
Nobody ever doubted his guilt, after the
crimes were traced home to his embassy and
to his lieutenants, Boy-ed and Won Pappen,
but aohen did the Government become CON
WINGED?
When did the Government come into pos
session of the evidence?

ing papers being seized, since the November
election
The only papers we were told about, were
those that England seized and those that our
Secret service men captured, IN the Summer Of
1915
Is not all this very strange?
Is something being kept from the people?
Since the election, Germany again pro-
claimed her purpose to destroy every neutral
ship entering the headlines.
Not as many of our vessels and our citizens
have been sunk since, as before; yet we now
go to war, on stupendous scale, because Ger
many continues to do what she said in Feb
1914 that she would do.
Are not those the simple facts?
After Bryan told the Allies, in effect not
to pay any attention to the Presidents warn
ing, the Lustania was torpedoed without
warming, and 119 Americans slaughtered.
BernstorA had advertised that it would be
done, and it was done, accordingly.
IF we meant business, what better cause
of war could we have asked?
But Bryan had told Dumba that we di0nt
mean business, and events proved the truth of
B1yQn'8 secret information TO THE ENEMY.
What has happened since, different from
what happened before the election?
Where is the imperative reason for sending
an army to Europe?
What can we gain by fighting on land,
