Only S77 Convicted
As Draft Evaders,
FBI Chief Reveals

With more than 100000 men in
the armed forces, only BIT convic-
tions for failure to register for the
draft had been recorded up to June
30-a far more impressive record
than during the last war, the Justice
Department reported today.
During the last war, more than
10000 were prosecuted for failure to
register. Many of these "slackers," :"
as they were then called, were con-
victed, though the record of how
many is not exact. The World War
armed forces, moreover, were about
half the size of those in this war.
when the United States declared
war on Germanysin 1917" j. Edgar
Hoover, director of the Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation, recalled in a
statement, some groups openely ad-
vocated forcible opposition to con-
scription. Open violence was pro-
voked in some sections of the coun-
try by radical influences. In pitched
battles between registrants and
county and State forces, approxi-
mately 20 persons were killed.

with State or Federal crimes.
OF those convicted of draft eva
sion, prison sentences totaling 1884
years-an average of 2112 months
each-were imposed.
While vigorous efforts to have
been made to locate draft dodgers" :"
Mr.. Hoover said. mass raids and in
discriminate challenging of men of
selective service age have not been
used in enforcement of the act

act, ordering all its members, citizens
ana aliens, to register National
Bund Leader Wilhelm Kunze and
% other prominent bund leaders
each received maximum prisoner
sentences of five years, however, for
counselling bund members to refuse
to perform actual military service.
Two other leaders received four-year
sentences each"
When 100000 men between 81
and 36 years of age presented them
selves for registration October IS,
1910, Mr.. Hoover explained. the FBI
was on the alert for any emergency,
since there was a history of riots
and bloodshedS marking enrollments
under other war draft acts. BY con-
trast, he added, our people this
time performed their democratic
obligations in spirit of willingness
and cheerfulness with only isolated
exceptions.
7,190 Cases Investigated.
There were few cases of organ
lied opposition, and these were of
negligible influence, and even in
dividual cases of conspiracy to evade
selective service were rare.
The FBI investigated 7,190 cases
OF failure to register during the last
three years. On these, 5,455 were
found not to be willful violators and
they registered promptly when the
requirements of the act were ex-
planned to them. Another 383 sub
mitted to immediate induction with
out prosecution. There were 435

OCD Releases Series of Transcriptions
Dramatizine Blitzed Britons

With Axis leaders telling their
people that American cities must be
raided, the United States Office Of
Civilian Defense announces the i'm
mediate release of a series of tram
scribed programs, made in England,
and vividly portraying what it
means to be on the receiving end
of enemy bombs
In these programs men and wom-

Britain tell personally Of the expert
ences, problems, pathos and dangers
which develop when your own back
yard becomes the front line.
Entitled I'VE Have Met the Enc
N.Y." the series of dramatic narra-
tives was recorded in England by
the London Transcription Service
of the British Broadcasting Corp.
Getting the records to this country
has been story in itself, since they
came by cargo plane ior transport
vessel. and several were lost en-
route. Enough are now in this coun-
try, according to Marvin Beers,
chief of the radio section of OCD,
to initiate release Of the series to
radio stations from coast to coast.
Each program begins with the
recorded sound of what is probably
the most awesome street scene of
this century-the ominous crump
of bombs in London. actually tran

Warmers Men Studied
UnmentiOnable Facts
HOLLYWOOD.


In the opening sequence of Irving
Berllns This Is the Army" now
before the cameras at Warner
Bros. Studio, there appears a strag-
Cling, be-underweared group of
"selectees," new soldiers in the
throes of induction. The same
group appeared at the opening of
the soldier show when it played
the theaters of the country.
But, just to show this theater-
conscious company that HOLLYWOOD
and the men who make its pictures
will take nothing on hearsay. the
Warner Bros. costume researchers
spent a day at the Fort Macarthur
induction center, studying first hand
the things men really wear under
their clothes on the day they re-
port to the Army.
The men who played the parts
in the show thought their costumes
were pretty revealing and verv
funny. But what the studio cos
tune experts discovered to be the
more authentic under -their-clothes
garments. from their study of the
inductee in the flesh, are not as re-
veallng but much funnier.
The soldier group is re-dressing
its act to be more in tune with the
time-and types.
