PEACE-T|ME ARMY
DRAF TING ILLEGAL
Acting Judge Advocate So
Rules in Regard to Strike
Emergencies.

Existing labor troubles on railroads
and. in mines do not constitute an
emergency authorizing recruiting the
Regular Army to war strength, and
there Is no authority vested in the
executive branch of the government
to draft men for military or other
service in time of peace.
That in substance is the opinion of
Col }. A. Hall, acting judge advocate
general oDthe Army. rendered to the
secretary Of War. in response to an
inquiry on the subject.
Secretary Weeks said he had asked
Tor an opinion on those two points
not because the government contem-
plated any such action, but to clear
up any uncertainty that might exist
in the minds Of the federal officials
and to put the public mind at ease
on the subject
IL mad been published in various
parts or the country that President
Harding had perfected plans TO in
crease the Army to war strength and
10 draft several hundred thousand
men to guard and operate the rail-
ROADS and mines. Secretary Weeks
sald that there was no foundation for
such reports and that such course
OF action could not possibly be en-
pioSed without specific authority from
Congress.
