Special to the Express.
Oklahoma City, Dec. 14.-Lack OF
public spirit on the part Of members
of the draft boards in the state Of
Oklahoma is under official investiga-
ton.
Since the new order went out from
the office of Governor r. L. williams
authorizing compensation in specific
cases to men who serve on draft
boards, the adjutant generals office
has been flooded with applications
for places on these boards with com
pensation attached Furthermore,
twenty per cent OF the present boards
have made rsquests for pay for one
or more Of their members, usually
for every member.
A banker serving on a draft board
is not expected to ask for compensa-
tion. as has been done A salarled
man drawing one hundred dollars
per month, who is "docked" fifty dol
1ers per month by his employer for
two successive months, is entitled to
remuneration. Merchants are asking
for pay, as are also, in some instan-
ces, county officials and county health
officers who are drawing compensa-
tions from their respective counties.
Citizens of communities which are
headquarters for draft boards are
Urged by the state council Of defense
to see that men who are willing to
serve their country patriotically are
placed upon these draft boards and
to learn, through the county councils,
v neither the demands which mem
hers are making for pay are necessa-
ry and just.
