BREWER CONVICTED
OF MISUSING MAILS
Jury's Mercy Plea Because Son
Died in War Cuts Sentence
to Eighteen Months.

William s. Brewer. director OF the Ex-
Service Mems Cooperative League. was
found guilty yesterday afternoon OF
using the mails to defraud. He was SEN
fenced by Federal Judge John G. Knox
to serve eighteen months in the Federal
Penitentiary In Atlanta. The condition
included all six counts of the Indictment
but recommended mercy because Brewer
lost a son during the war. Judge Knox
called the findings Of the jury "a
righteous verdict and meted out eigh-
teen months for each count. the SEN
tences to be served concurrently.
The jury deliberated half an hour
Brewer received the verdict and sentence
with few traces of emotion.
The recommendation for clemency was
considered by Judge Knox In imposing
sentence. as he explained that although
lie had intended "a rather severe SEN
tence" the one he was about to give was
"substaptial." Assistant United States
Attorney Maxwell S. Mattuck argued
that in spite Of the recommendation OF
the jury Brewers relations with his son
we're not such as TO entitle him to Glenn
ency. He said Brewer had opposed his
sons service in the war. even going so
far as to have him committed 10 the
Kings County Hospital for observation
to prevent IT.
In reply Brewer explained that his son
served in the Canadian army before
the United States entered the war and
returned gassed and broken in health
lie said he took him 20 Atlantic High
lands to recuperate. and there got the
inspiration for his own work among
wounded soldiers. When the United
states entered the war young Brewer
according to his father, wished to serve
again. The father was reluctant to have
him go, he said. because of his physical
condition. Upon the advice of friends
he had him committed to the hospital
for observation and was very glad when
tho young man was adjudged sane
Soon after this, Brewer said. his son
went to England and served with the
British army until he was killed.
Counsel for Brewer said they would
apply to-day for a writ and bail pending
appeal.

money was responsible, directly or in
