IMMUNITY
CLAIMS q
BOARD REJECTS APPLICATIONS
OFFICERS AFTER AL
LEGGED STACKER

AS a result of yesterdays session
the local exemption board refused
to allow the claim of Emil PerolaZ.
Perolaz claimed to be the sole sup
port of his mother, who is the wife
of Fred Erben. 1t is said that Erb-
en- disappeared from Goldfield re-
Gently, leaving his wife no means of
support but her son. Mrs. Erben
being a married woman, with her
husband living and up to the time
he left here able to support her, the
board did not allow the claim of
her son.
The claim of Edward Scratching
was not allowed. Scratching filed
no claim in his own behalf, but his
mother filed one, stating h a he is
her sole support. The board has
decided that he is not the sole sup
port of his mother and has not been
and that he will be more able to
support her if he is in the army.
The case of Earl C. Person is I'M
der consideration, but has not yet
been acted upon.
The board is considering disallow-
ing the claim of Glenn p. Jepperson.
who claims to be the sole support Of
his father and mother; n OF
George Carroll, who claims to be
the sole support of his mother.
Additional proof has been asked
in the case of Frank Treolar, who
claims to be supporting a mother
and father in England.
DR.. Mccarthy will leave Goldfield
tomorrow for a short time and the
board has appointed DR.. Liggett to
re-examine men who have been re-
jected by DR.. Mccarthy for physical
disabilities. This is in accordance
with the practice of boards else
where.
Grin Bulge. was CANNED yester-
day and passed and filed nc claim
for exemption. Byron F. Record
appeared and filed a claim because
of being married. Alva Garrett has
been examined in Ophir, Colo, and
passed, filing no exemption claim.
DCit SOllCy IiiCu, Claiming oCpChd
ents. Draga Vlajkow passed. He
says he has taken out his first citi-
zenship papers. but that he applieA
; for them over seven years ago. DisS
trict Attorney Foley says this will not
bar him from becoming a soldier.
The interesting work of raising
men for the draft has now passed
to the district attorney, who is
compelled to appeal to the district
board all claims filed on the ground
of dependents and all claims for
other reasons when it is believed
the claim is not we'll founded.
/ District Attorney Foley has re-
quested that publicity be given a
statement made by him this morn
ing. He stated that he considers it
the duty of every citizen who has
the welfare of the country at heart
to report to him all doubtful eases.
He says the information will be re-
garded as confidential and that all
cases reported will be carefully con-
sidered by him.
r The district attorney made his
first move this morning, when he
ordered the sheriff to take into Gus
tody Odysseus or Ulysses Palmos,
who registered under the former
name. The arrest is expected to be
made this afternoon.
; PalmOs is a local miner. born in
Greece. and he states that he has
never applied for first citizenship
papers. He has filed an exemption
claim on this ground.
In Investigating his case the dis
trict attorney found that Ulysses
Palmos had applied for first papers
in Goldfield in 1911 and further
that there was great similarity be-
tween the statements of Ulysses
Palmos at that time and Odysseus
Palmos in filing his claim for ex-
emption. Many people saw the two
signatures this morning and agreed
they were written by the same
hand.
Ulysses and Odysseus PaImos
came to the port of San Francisco
on the same day of the same year
on the same steamer, according to
papers filed. and they came from
the same place in Greece and were
the same age.
The coincidence was too remark
able to escape the district attornav
