J Persons connected with draft boards are precluded hereafter from receiving rewards for the apprehension and delivery to the military authorities of deserters from the national army, as is indicated In a telegram received yesterday bv Governor Gov-ernor Simon Bamberger from E. H. Croiv-der, Croiv-der, provost marshal general. This telegram tele-gram says: It appears from the records of the war department that many members of local boards and clerks employed by such boards have claimed and received re-ceived the reward offered by the government gov-ernment for apprehension and delivery deliv-ery of deserters from the national army to the military authorities. Under the selective service regulations, regula-tions, a registrant becomes a deserter by failing to comply with certain orders issued pursuant to those regulations. regu-lations. Desertion may be willful or non-willful, and the ouestion of whether it is willful, and committed with intent to evade milllarv service, ser-vice, is for the determination of a local draft board before issuing or refusing re-fusing to Issue the certificate pre-serioed pre-serioed in section 51, which is required re-quired by section 50 to be presented before a reward is paid. In view of the above facts, and to alia;- criticism, which heretofore has been directed against the selective service system because members of local boards or their clerical assistants assist-ants have claimed and received rewards. re-wards. It is thought expedient that such persons be precluded from receiving re-ceiving these rewards in the future. It is of the utmost importance to relieve the public mind of any suspicion that persons engaged in the administration of the selective service law are using their official position to derive personal per-sonal profit from this source, and it is requested, therefore, that von instruct all local boards that members thereof and clerks connected therewith may not participate in or claim the benefit bene-fit of any reward or portion of anv reward paid by the government for tile apprehension and deliverv of deserters de-serters from the national army.
