Some Folks Go A Long Way
To Avoid A Little Drilling
WASHINGTON IT Kfdrral
Bureau of I iivi--i iiiii mil audits
have begun clurkiny on draft
youths trying to (i(id)2o l iiilr Sain s
call to duty
Prospective iliatices uill tiud
that the FBI already knows virtu
ally all the angles from past expe
dience. The bureau handled more
than 609.000 reported violations of
the World War II draft act
The cases included everything
from posing as a bearded lady" to
deliberately blowing off a hand
with a shotgun. Of the 16,745 per
sons brought to trial, 16.173 were
convicted.
Convictions through June 30.
1947, brought sentence.-, totaling
almost 40.000 years and fines ag
gregating almost $1,500,000 Most
of the cases not brought to trial
were closed when the accused com
plied with terms f the selective
service act.
Many Stranfe Cases
FBI agents handled many
strange cases under the act And
many odd excuses were offered for
failure to answer the call to arms
A side-show bearded lady m De
troit was found to be a man "ho
had not registered for the draft
and a Staten Inland N V man
said he didn t know a war wa; be
ing fought
One of the most amazms at
tempts to dodge strv;ce was made
by a 40-year-o!d KnoxviUt, Tenrs..
insurance man. The night he iva5
classified as 1-A, his left hand wa.
shot off by a bUt from an auto
matic ihotgun. He claimed it was a
horrible accident, adding, "Well. 1
guess Tin 4-F now."
FBI anents checked to find the
had just taken out an insurance
policv which paid $2,500 lor the
loss of a hand. Laboratory' experts
'found the shotgun would not dis
charge without touching the trig
; ficr something the Tennessee man
j said he had not done. He was sent
to prison.
Drowning Faked
Still another draftee was con
icted of trying to induce a physi
cian to puncture his ear-drums to
make him 4-F.
One youth went to great trouble
to fake a drowning. When FBI
agents found him a year later. It
1 turned out he was physically un
qualified for service. He was fined
) $500 and given a five-year sus
pended sentence.
FBI agents were painstaking in
t heir search for evaders. One pur
suit led to Alaska, where agents
followed two men through wild
' country for three days in a small
airplane They finally caught both
men because moose, which fear
man. kept watching them.
The claim of an Alabama family
'.hat three boys were too young for
the draft was shattered by FBI
laboratory experts. The parents
submitted the family Bible as proof
of 'he birth dates of the three boys.
But the experts proved it had been
jrttficially aged and could not have
been published before 1939. The
whole family received four-year
sentence-.
