BAKER APPROVES
ARMY SENTENCES
Twelve Privates Refuse to
Fight Because They Have
Relatives in Germany.
NOT IN DIRECTORS CLASS
War Heads Draw Distinc-
ton Between Willful and
Conscientious Stands
MIGHT GO OUT OF COUNTRY
Would Send Undesitables To
Country Of Preference at
Close OF War.
NOT IN DIRECTORS CLASS
MIGHT GO OUT OF COUNTRY

WASHINGTON, June 17,--In ap-
proving today sentences ranging
from IS months to 20 years impris-
onment imposed by courts martial
upon 12 privates who refused mill
tary service at Camps Upton. y. Y,
and Gordon, Ca, Secretary Baker
made it plain the war department
does not consider the men as COM
ing within the class OF conscientious
objectors.
The men refused service solely
because they were asked to fight
against Germany and Austria, in
which countries most of them claim
have the right of a review of their
cases by the special board.
Secretary Baker said the men
could not select the country against
which they would bear arms.
Twelve objectors were sentenced
as fellows; Hyman Polkes, Is years;
William J. Seider, 20 years. Joseph
White, is years; Anton Zoldak, 10
years. Julius Ievinthal, IS months /.
Louis Silvcrman, 10 years; Mayer
Suffkind. 10 years. Louis r. Blu
menthal. s years; Samuel Spire, 5
wears, Paul Bauer. 10 years: William
Charles Schwab, 20 years, and Mich
ael Ciupa, 10 years.
In my Judgment" said Secretary
Raker's approval, "the sentences
should be executed, and IL after this
war is over some process can be de-
Vised by which these entirely unde-
srable citizens can be returned to
the countries of their preference, it
would be highly desirable from the
point of view of the United States. --
II have not the least doubt as to
the propiiety OF the procedure in
these cases. nor am ] uncertain as
TO the correctness OF the results
