Governor Philip which is self ex-
planatory:
"Executice Chamber
Madison, Wis.,, Aug. 10, 1917.
W. B. Heinemann, Wausau, Wis,
Dear Sir: I am informed that some
lawyers are seeking the business of
preparing affidavits for individuals
who wish to file claims for exemption
on industrial or agricultural grounds.
1t has been further called to my atten-
ton that fees of twenty-five dollars
are being asked from these persons.
L wish to call the attention of all
persons who desire to file such claims
that it is absolutely unnecessary to
engage an attorney for this work. Lo-
cal boards will be glad to give you the
information and the chairmen and sec
retarleS are authorized to administer
oaths. A public-spirited notary pub
lie in each local board jurisdiction has
agreed to certify to these affidayits
without charge. All persons who file
claims with district boards ought to
understand that what the district
boards want is plain statement of
the facts. An ingeniously worded af-
fidavit in the legal phraseology of
lawyer does not help a mans case.
1t hlnders it rather. Please advise all
statements in plain English of the facts
IN the case will be given more con-
slderation by the district board than
any highfaluting affidavit prepared by
an attorney
IT is contrary to the spirit of the
selectlVe service law for claimants to
nave to go to this extraordinary and
unnecessary expense. The most they
ought TO pay in the preparation of
THESE affidavits is nominal fee. Mem
Ders OF local and. district boards and
doctors and lawyers who are taking
appeals for the government are CIV
ing unreservedly of their time with
pracucally no remuneration to see
that the law is faithfully and Impair
TALLY administered.
Inc conduct of the few LAWYERS who
are exploiting individuals has been
severely condemned by LAWYERS to
Whom l have talked. They regard it
ana L regard it, too, as not only I'M
patriouc and unethical from the pro-
Iesslonal point of view.
Please give this letter TO your local
newspapers Z. L. Philip"
Mr.. Helnemann assures the Pilot
tnat no lawyer in Wausau or Mara
tnon county has followed this prac-
..ce, ana that they are charging little,
II any, fees in connection with this
work.
