sian outlook from Allied Intervention.
Ruble notes were quoted at 14.10M
14.2O for the 500s, and l4.20G 1870 for

BRUMBAUGH FAVORS
RECRUITING CONVlCTS
Takes Sides, With View That
Their Services Would
Benefit L. S.

Governor Brumbaugh has gone on rec
ord as favoring recruiting of convicts.
Lieutenant Governor Frank 3. McClain
and Secretary of the Commonwealth
Cyrus Il. Woods, members of the par
don hoard, have repeatedly declared
their belief that penitentiary inmates
should not be permitted to join the
army, and in numerous cases have
turned down" pardon applications fled
by offenders who want to enlist.
In a letter to the Rev. Joseph Welch.
moral instructor at the Eastern Peni-
tentiary, under date of March &c, Gov
ernor Brumbaugh said:
II shall again urge the attorney gen.
eral of the commonwealth to do the
thing you have in mind. ! believe with
you that some good could be accom-
plished and the cause of good govern
ment made more secure II heed were
given to your thought, which is in har-
mony with my own
The paragraph quoted was in answer
to a letter from Father Welch sugges ST.
ing the pardoning of prisoners for army
service. Father Welch had previously
written the War Department at WASH
ington. and in reply Adjutant General
j. $. Jones said:
Section l11S, United States revised
statutes, prohibited the enlistment in the
military service of certain persons, in
cluding deserters and those who had
been convicted of a felony. That por-
ton relating to deserters was modified
August 22, 1913. However, the portion
which precludes the enlistment of per-
sons who have been convicted of fell
ony is still in force and necessarily
precludes favorable action on your sug-
gestion."
Consults Brown
In the meantime Governor Brum-
baugh had taken up the matter with
Attorney General Francis Skunk Brown
and learned that Brown had been in
touch with Lieutenant Governor Nc
Claim. chairman of the pardon board
Mr. McClain in his answer" writes
the Governor to the prison chaplain
called his attention to the great pro
test that went up year ago when the
United States Government made slmi
lar proposition, and doubts whether III,
military service would profit by the re
( lease of criminals for military service
He is however, of the opinion that tn,
prisoners could be used for public work,
conducted by the Commonwealth. anc
l am taking up that matter with the
attorney general again. as / have in III,
past, to ascertain whether II Is possibl,
under the laws of this Commonwealth
To do this"
Replying to the Governor, Father
WEIGH pointed to the fact that as rules
by the courts pardon reinstates tn,
possessor in his position and privileges
as though no fault had ever been CON
mitted.
