Administration Exempts Stacker.
Having helped to re-elect Woodrow
Wilson President on the issue, HE
kept US out of war;" the elder Scripps
demanded that his sons be kept out Of
war. And the Administration kept
them out.
Young Robert Scripps, who had new.

without any pay from the Democratic
committee or thought of obligation for
keeping him out Of war.
The draft-dodging aspects Of the
case, as brought out at Washington,
are not unlike those OF young Bergdoll
of Philadelphia, which resulted in a
Federal prosecution for conspiracy to
evade the draft.
