10000 SLACKERS BEHIND
PRISON BARS IN AMERICA
Sentences Range Anywhere, From
Thirty Days TO One Yenr
In Jail.
IBy United Press.l

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S.-Evidence
obtained by agents of the Department
of Justice has landed 10000 draft
dodgers behind prison bars within
the past year. This represents ap-
proXimately one-half OF The actual
draft evaders brought to trial. An
other 10000 having been found not
guilty of willful evasion, the SEN
tcnces imposed ranged from thirty
days to one year.
at the conclusion OF the world war
there were 337,Gi9 names on the War
Departments list Of deserters. Care
full investigation brought out the fact
that many of these men had not
evadcd the draft Some had actually
enlisted and sa.! service in Franco.
All told. 1000 men have been appre-
Eended and detained for disposition
since the armistice. Most of these
trials were conducted under military
law
Revised figures show that there
ere now less than $4,000 men in
America who are subject to civil pun
ishmcnt for failure to answer the
summons TO war. The Department of
Justice believes that the end Of the
year 1921 will see the last case OF this
kind tried and decided.

iBy Associated Press. !

LONDON. Dec. aS.-Calls for the
United States. Great Britain and
Japan to curtaii naval expenditures
by mutual agreement were featured
by number of London newspapers
this morning.
In following this course, the Jour
mails give expression TO the anxiety
which has prevailed here since the
receipt of reports OF the new Amcri-
can naval program an anxiety
which may he traced to the assump-
ton that if the United states builds
a big navy. Great Britain must do
likewise.
The Morning Post lamcnts that
American politicians have chosen n
moment when the wartime fellowship
OF the American and British navies
and the 'chivalrous courtesy of
American scamcn" have united the
naval services OF The two nations TO
declare. In effect. that the British
Navy is a potential menace to Amer
ica."
