Besides Or. llemlg, the men tlne.it

A vcrltnb'e bombardmont of thieal

".Mr. Muiphy Jiinf I went to Assistant
District Attorney Walnut and com
plained. He furnlslud us with a IMlcr
to Captain Mills and the latter appeared
greatly surprised when we told of the
action of the police I
"Caption Mills th' n nnd there wanted
lo have the offending patrolmen brought ,
before the police board for trial. How
ever, this nould have. 'been of no aiall,
as these men were only serving the
higher-ups."
"Then theie tinvn been many other
ways, In which the police have shown
that they were unwilling to co-opcrato
with us. We arc offered Inadequate
protection nt all times. There Is never
. ny effort of the police to maintain order
when we lire examining Rroups of regis
trants. In fact, matteis have del eloped
to a point where vie are In actual fear" ,
According to the membeis of Local
Board No, 3, their trouble started when
they remoied Ilaffael C'anillll, u draft I
eligible, living nt 800 South .Seventh i
street, from Class 4-A nnd Inducted him I
Into .the service. Camllll was recently
lndlcfed by the special Fedcial lirand
Jury problnR draft conditions here'
with A, II. Oordon Davis, n lavijer, Ca
mllll being accused ofN conspliacy to
hamper the draft.
t'ninllll Wiin Itunner "

ii "Wa have affidavits to show tli.it the'
S that mulcted a soiuier or 400, telling I
i mm no couiu tiun me iiiinv anil ' niai-
ters would be fHed."
The change In classification made by
thi board, according to Doctor Hemic,
followed the presentation of facts show
ing that Camllll never supported his
wife nnd three children. An agent of
the Pennsylvania S'ocletyt to Protect
Children from Cruelty placed a series of
reports In the hands of the board, show.,
lng these facts and that ho beat his'
wife.
The case was appealed to District
Board No. 1, which sustained the action
of the local board after reviewing the
facts. Camllll was ordered to camp
September 3, but the draft officials
Charge that he did not leave then.
However, thevfotlowlng day they took
measures for mVentralninent to Camp
(Ireenleaf.
Some time afterward the board re
ceived some papers from Ilarrlsburg
pertaining to Camllll. Among them, It
Is alleged, were two telegrams, one
from Herbert W, Salus, demanding a
reclassification of Camllll, and another
from Mrs. Camllll, saying that she wan
willing to testify that her husband did
supVbrt her.
Jlecently a letter fiom Congressman
Vare reached draft olllclals, asking for
a' reconsideration In the cases of Camllll
and two other registrants under the
.Jurisdiction of Local Hoard No, 3,
