Charged Willi Slabbing Man 5 Times
KULPMONT. Pa.. Sent, o. As James
vlirulo stepped from a trolley car icsteday
Samuel Verano. It is alleged, stabbed him
fle times. Verano was arrested and com
mitted to Jail. Vlsuln was removed In a..i
critical condition to the State Hospital. The I
IBM, iri fwM, had long been on b4 term,
Follow'ng correction of the wording of
the subpoena which summoned him before
the Federal Orand Jury. John P. Dwyer,
managing editor of tho Philadelphia Itecord,
nppenred before that body today and began
the task of attempting to prove chargei of
neglect of duty In the prosecution of slack
ers which he made against United Statei
Attorney 1'rancls Fisher Kane.
Mr. Ilwyer nrrlied at the Federal Build
ing with many bundle of data and numer
ous friends from Oerbrook. whero lie Is
secretary of Draft Board No. 12. Mr.
Dwjer was also accompanied by Attorney
Joseph P. McCullen. He first went to the
United States District Court to complain
about tho subpoena.
Mr. McCullen pointed out that the sub
poena had been worded "United States
ngalnst tho Orand Jury." Mr. Kane saw the
mlstnke readily and corrected It. He then
accompanied Mr. Dwj,er to tho Orand Jury
room and Introduced him to tho twelve men
who will pass upon the merits of the case.
After Impressing upon the Jury the Im
portance of the case and urging them to
make an Investigation as to whether the
District Attorney's odlco had been lai In
Its lnest'gatlon. Mr. Kane left the room
In commenting upon his action, he said,
"A United States attorney cannot afford to
Ignore charges of the nature mado by Mr.
Dwer, nnd I do hope that the Inveitlgatlon
will be thorough."
The first case cited before the juiy was
that of Maurice Brown, who asked exemp
tion for tho reason that he conducted a drug
store and there would be no one left to man
age It.
Mr. Kane said today that this case was
still being Imcstlgated.
Mr. Dwycr remained before the Grand
Jury for two hours. When he had con
cluded bis testimony a recess wns taken
Turther dl-mtl.ifactlon over alleged lax
ity by the Ooiernment hi prosecut'ng draft
law lolators came today, when Chester A.
Sellers, accused bv UN wife, before Local
Draft Board No. 30. of being a Llncker, was
released by Magistrate Collins, at the Nine
teenth and Oxford streets station.
The Federal authorities failed to Investi
gate the case and showed no Interest In
it. according to members of the board and
th nolle? of the Nineteenth and O'cfoid
streets ttntlon. They declared that the
Department of Justice promised to hae n
repiekcntatlve at a hearing before the
board ;,esterday afternoon nnd the police
court hearing this morning, but failed In
both cases to do ro The promises, It was
said, were made oer the telephono to Dr.
L. F. kuburg. the board's medical ex
aminer: Balph Dungan. Scllers's attorney,
and District Detective Derln.
Frank L. Garbarlno, chief special agent
of the Depattment of Justice, denied that
lis had been Informed of tho Sellers case,
nnd Implied that politics actuated some of
the complaints made by draft boards.
POLITICS. HINTS GATIBAUINO
'There Is no recoid of a Selleis case In
my ottlee," he said. "And I made no prom
ises to the board of the Fiftieth district.
It Is not my intention to get Into a con
troorsj with any draft board In the clt,
but ft Ih possible that politics llgures behind
many of tho so-called complaints that aio
being niad by some of the draft boards.
Jt makes no difference to me what political
affiliation an alleged ilolator of the dratt
law may have. Whether he be a follower
of MoNichol, Vure, Penrose or any other
political leader, I will treat him tho same.
"A gieat trouble connected with the
operation of the draft law exists In the fact
that many draft boards lodge complaints
over the telephone," lie contmuru. ".Natural
ly we do not know whether or not a olta
on the other end of tho telephone wire is
that of a responsible man. Any person
can call up on the telephono nnd repre
sent himself a3 a member of a draft board
If the law has been lolated why do not
tho Informants come to the olllce and lay
the evidence before us? We are pleased to
co-operate."
At the United State Marslial'H office It
was pointed out that the proper proceduio
In a cat.e of the nature of the Sellers ar
rest was for tho police to bring the man
to the Federal Building. Men arrested
by ths city authotltles for alleged offenses
against the United Sta,tea rliould bo turned
over to the Federal authorities. It was said
Sellers, who lives at 17.'4 GIraid avenue
nnd lo an employe of the Schujlklll Arsenal,
was anested when his wife, who was the
basis of his rlalm for exemption from
draft, charged that she was being used as
a shield, having been forced to sign an
affidavit that she was his wife. After Sel
lcrs's, airest she withdrew her chatges. Al
though Sellers was exempted on the grounds
of having n wife and child, dissatisfaction
was expressed over tho alleged failure of
tho Governrnent to follow up tho conflicting
htatements. .
Draft District Appeal Board No. 2 con
tinued to receive appeals today.
The board sustained the appeal of Irving
It. Itedland, of 520 Ashdalo street, whose
plea was specially called to the attention
of tho board by the secretary. Doctor Ham
mond. The district board was criticised
for denjlng exemption, since lledland not
onli had a wife and a widowed mother
to support, but was emplojed as an artificer
In the Frankford Arsenal.
Forty-nine nelghbois of Mr. nnd Mrs.
Ii.vic Golden. 2414 North Front fctreet.
asked exemption for their son. Louis
Golden, the solo support of parents who
weie In feeble health.
DRAFT LAWVI2BS TO MEI2T
A meeting of the fifty-one lawjers ap
pointed by Governor Brumbaugh as legal
advisers for the city's draft boards was
held today In the office of Harry Berkowltz,
In tho Lincoln Building, In an effort to ob
tain uniform rulings for all the boards.
Today nnd tomorrow 300 more men will
be called for examination as to their fitness
for military ton Ice by the Forty-fourth
Dlstilct Board, sitting at the Thirty-sixth
district police station, on Geimantown ave

This has been made necessary by the
largo number of exemption claims presented
In the ciac of Harold Schlos-, of the Box
fcrd Knitting Compan-, exemption was
asl-od by the Knit Goods Committee of
the Council of National Defense for the rea.
son that the sen Ice of Schloss was essen
tial to the manufacture and delivery of
Inigo orders of underwear for the men In
Him United States Army.
I'eqticsta for the exemption of a large
number of etnplovcs wero made by tho
Baldwin Locomotive Works, Ilemlngton
Arms Company, William Cramp & Kons
Ship and Knglne Building Comptny, because
the men were engaged on war contracts. It
wat also pointed out that as there was a
great shortage of labor It would be difficult
to fill their places.

MAYOR IS SCORED
BY OWN WARD MEN
Independent Republicans
Charge Smith Favors Fam
ily Rather Than Workers
NEW LEASE OPPOSED
A sensntlonnl attack on Major Smith and
what were described as "members of his
gang," was delivered by Independent Re
publicans of the Twenty-eighth Ward at the
headquarters of tho ward Republican club,
2111 West York street, Hst night. The
Twenty-eighth Is the Mnjor's homo wntd.
Not only was a slgi ed statement Issued
charging that the Major sacrificed tho
workers of tho ward to the interests of his
family, but It was t.nld that members of
tho Mayor's family could get Join while rcg
Ulir ward workers were Ignored.
Following the organl7a;lon of the Inde
pendents, they adopted njl-esolutlon pledg
ing support to A Merrill Taylor, former
Director of Transit, la his light ngalnst
the Mnjor's proposed leaso with tho Itapld
Tianslt Company
The statement expressing the sentiments
of the meeting was signed by Lewis J.
Mejcr, candidate for Select Council; J. A
Itlchman, Thomas Atkinson nnd Aaron
Wllhelm, candidates for Common Council!
Georga Kaufman, candidate for magistrate,
nnd J, It. Weluh, candidate for onstable
All are running against Major Smith's
candidates for the same olllce. In the
course of the meeting, George Sterr, the
chairman, declared that no one need fear
the power of the Major, and that further
more "Uneasy jics tho head that wears
tho crown."
All of the nntl-Smltli candidates made
speeches backing up their signed statement,
which, in substance, wns as follows:
Help us organize against Boss Major
Smith and his trick transit lease Wo
.ire opposed to the re-elertion of William
Qulglev to Councils the human Icicle
and West 12nd urtlstocr.it He Is tho
choice of Bond Smith, lather than of tho
peoplo of the Twenty-eighth Ward Whnt
lias Thomas II Smith done for the Tweti-tv-elghth
Ward' Look how he acted in

Treasunr, a Twent -eighth Wind lesl
dent. Win did he not have the netve to
slHtp his friend Hecdnmjcr fm Magis

has done splendidly for hid own fnmllv.
but wnat Has 11a uono lor ire people of
tho Twenty-eighth Ward How many
active workers has he benefited? Can
you get near him? I2e Is very exclusive.
Why the demoralization alia hounding of
tho polico force? It Is n crime. Why did
Thomas II. Smith betray his personal
friends and benefactors Boles Penrose
nnd James P. McNIchol? Where was Ids
flftj'-flfty stuff, then 7 Resent this treach
ery nnd help us organize ngalnst him In
every division. The great war Mayor
from Glcnslde wants your boy to go In
tho trenches whllo he sacrificed his own
son to 11 safe berth In the navy j-ard, far
from danger, at $2000 nr year, as pay
master, m Oie papers say. You cannot
beat this Smith crowd to It. They land
every time, tied to u fat salarj.
What hjpocrlsy Is the raiding of cigar
stores, candy stores and barber shopa of
little slot machine, while the Thomas 11.
Smith Republican Club permits all kinds
of gambling and fills the nelghboihood
with drunl.s regulnrly every Sundnv?
Why do not the police raid this Joint?
