REP DILL COMES UNDER
PROPOSED DRAFT Law
Eastern Washington Congressman Is
Only One in Delegation
Affected.

Representative c. c. Dill of the
Spokane district, bachelor, will be
the only member of the Washington
delegation who will have to register
when the draft age limits are extend
ed to As.
There are 10 members of the
house under As. Dill will have to
state in his QUESTIONABLE whether
he claims deferred classification.
Dill, who voted against the decla-
ration of the war and was against
the passage of the draft law, cannot
be conscripted if he is reelected, be-
cause the law exempts government

He was a member of the first con-
gressional party to visit the battle
front in France after the United
States became involved in the war.
Prior to his election to congress he
was in Olympia as private secretary

SOLDIERS DATES
FROM STEALING

One morning in April the body of a
man, in the uniform of a private Of
the United States regular army, was
found beside the railroad track at
Jeanerette, La. Fate had overtaken
him while beating his way to Brook
lyn, N. Y, where his parents live.
The story of this mans. doWlRafalll
was told, briefly, eloquently, warn
ingly, III diary he had kept and
which Was found on the body.
In this diary was list Of books he
had 1ead-good books, intended 20
promote morality in the man about
to fight for his country. Then after
a time, came this entry: "Sent lone
two Red Cross Sweaters"
Was that the beginning of the end?
It would seem so, for the mana
sergeant was broken and reduced to
the ranks and following close on the
heels of the day he "sent home two
Ped Cross sweaters" he faced
court end was recommended for els
honorable discharge for the good of
the service" A bag of dice had
taken the place of the good books
and deck of cards, thumbed and
greasy, were on the body.
He had failed to measure up to
tie stature of man,, but he had
raid the penalty.
The Red Cross sent the body home
because the Red Cross does not sit
in judgment. It's purpose is to serve
the living and the dead. The tact
that this dishonorably discharged
soldier had "sent home two Red
Cross sweaters" did not count against
him or deny his parents the body of
their boy.
Had ne hot paid the penalty?
