John w. Hart, C. A. Barton and p,
Fl. Spangenberg have been removed
from district draft board No. 2, for
southern Idaho, as the result OF an in
vestieation which shows alleged irreg-
ularities in the manner of their grant
inc three deferred classifications.
President Wilson, through Provost
Marshal General E. H. Crowder, to
whom evidence collected by Herman H.
TAYLOR of Standpoint, as special investi-
gator. was submitted, notified Governor
Alexander in a letter to place new men
on the board, with instructions that the
cases Of the sons of Hart and Barton be
reconsidered, with all other cases re-
ported by Taylor as being of improper

"The gist of the charges against
