TRIES TO PUT ONE
 OVER LOCAL BOARD
NEGRO REGiSTRANT IS CAUGHT MAKING FRAUDULENT ANSWERS ARRESTED AND HELD FOR FEDERAL ACTION.

Elias Kelly, living near LaGrange, thought he would put one over on Uncle Sam, even if he had to call on the graveyard to furnish him with an excuse to get a deferred classification. He stated in his questionnaire that he had two depen- dents-his wife and child and tenn porarily he got by with his declara- tion. But like murder, lie will out. Information reached the local board to the effect that the erstwile wife who had consorted with Elias had long since grown tired of his trifleness and had left him, and the child had been dead two years. The board had given the negro deferred classification in Four A. When 1t became known he was not living with his wife and his child was dead orders were issued for his arrest. He was apprehended, brought before the board, placed in Class One A, and held under bond to await the action of the federal authorities, Elias stands a mighty good chance to stop some German bullets, and 1t is probable he will have to serve a term in the federal penitentiary for : making these false statements,
