Drafted Adventists and Noncombatant Claims
By Editor
We call attention to the letters from drafted S. D. Adventists published in this number. The experience they give seems not to be the exception, but the rule. We have not yet heard of any who, though their claims as non-combatants were endorsed by the provost marshals of their districts and certificates granted them accordingly, have succeeded in obtaining a position in hospitals, or in the care of freedmen. And even the district provost marshals sometimes refuse to endorse the claims of our brethren, notwithstanding all the evidences, as non-combatants. Where is the wrong in this matter, and how can it be remedied? Has Bro. Andrews any light for us here?
