TO DEPORT SLACKERS.
American Legion Urges Action
Against Foreign Born Who
Dodged Draft
special Dispa tch TO Every Evening

special Dispatch to Every Evening
Washington, d. c.. April 7.--Whole-
sale deportation of foreign slackers was
urged by former Congressman Thomas w.
Miller of Delaware, today, in hearing
before the House Emigration Comm ttce.
Mr.. Miller said he represented the views
and wishes of the American Legion.
He told the committee that there were
thousands of aliens in this country during
the war who gave up their chance to be
naturaized in order to escape the draft
and that the members OF the American
Legion felt very strongly about the mat
ter.
Congressman Albert Johnson Of Wash
ington, chairman of the committee, an
nounced after hearing MIR. Mlllers p iea
that he was in hearty accord with the
statements made and the action urged.
He said he believed that there should be
wholesale deportations of this class OF
citizen and that he would SO incorporate
such q plan in new measures that are TO
be submitted to Congress. He also said
that there would be a stringent restriction
of emigration TO this country embodied IN
the bill and that none who might be
impregnatcd with Red ideas would he
pernitted to enter this country.
Draft boards of this city had scores and
scores of young healthy men, emp loyed
at rohtable trades here, who had received
their first papers who refused to continue
the legal machinery making them citizens
and who lodged the draft because they
were not citizens of this country. Some
of these Young men were making wages
ranging from $40 to $50 weekly and the
fact that they were allowed to remain at
home at these wages while American boys
were taken from their jobs and drafted
into the army at S35 per month caused
considerable criticism.
