THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, JULY 13, iyi8.
REGISTRANTS IN
DRAFT SHOULD BE
GIVENLEGAL AID
"It is Duty of Lawyers," Says
Crowder; Unpatriotic and
Unethical to Accept
Fees.
"The practice of attorneys charging
selective service registrants fees is
deemed improper, unethical and un
patriotic. It is a form of profiteering
beneath the dignity of the legal pro
fession, which has almost unanimous
ly strongly condemned it."
This is the opinion of Provost Mar
shal General Crowder, given to the
adjutant general of Montana in the
case of a Montana attorney accepting
fees for assisting a draft registrant in
filling out his necessary papers. It is
being copied by state provost mar
shals and given as a warning to all
lawyers, board members, justices of
the peace and notaries public.
A Lawyer's Duty.
"The selective service act exacts
from certain citizens their entire time
and possibly their lives," declares Gen
eral Crowder in. his statement.
"In that law much was expected
from the lawyers. As the selective
service regulations state 'it should be
the pride of every lawyer that no reg
istrant within his district is without
competent legal advice. All lawyers
should regard it as their duty to
identify themselves with the advisory
boards and without compensation to
give their services to the nation.
"The pleading of the deferred
claims of registrants by attorneys is
considered culpable and inconsistent
with the spirit of the act. I he Amer
lean Bar association has actively as
sisted this office in discouraging this
The Missouri State Bar association
suspended a member for 15 months
for exacting fees in administering
oaths required for registrants.
Salvation Army Workers
Must All Carry Cards
A gray-haired man driving a cov
ered wagon and asserting he is
member of the Salvation Army has
been soliciting for the Red Cross in
Dundee. Thursday afternoon a traf
, fie officer called on Ensign Walter
Grantham of the Salvation Army, say
ing a woman in Dundee had reported
that this man had called on her for
help. The woman says she has fre
quently given to the salvation Army
and they have always sent a truck out
tor supplies, which fact she mentioned
to the old man. Yes, ma am, he re
plied, "we have a truck, but it is brok
cn and so I have to use the wagon."
Ensign Grantham states that the
Salvation Army uses a truck for col
lecting supplies and that this gray
haired man is not a member of the
Army. "Our men carry cards showing
that they are authorized to collect for
u, said the ensign, and if people
will ask them to display their cards
when they call they will be protected
irom giving to imposters.
Capt. Kline Writes of War
Work of Salvation Army
In the July 13 issue of the War
Cry, the official organ of the Salva
tion Army, there is an article by Cap

diers. Captain Kline left Omaha last
beptember to become an army chap
lain, and is now stationed at Camp
Deming. He has the rank of second

most of the soldiers. One Texas cow
boy, when asked whether he would
attend Catholic or Protestant serv
ices, asked, "Which is the closest?"
The captain appreciated the cowboy's
attitude, as he was a Texas cowboy
himself before joining the Salvation
Army.
