Claudius v. Davie, 175 Cal. 208 (Cal. 1917).

Opinion

THE COURT.

Application for a writ of prohibition based on the claim that the act of Congress approved May 17, 1917, providing for what is known as the selective draft for military service, is in violation of section 1 of article XIII of the federal Constitution and section 18 of article I of the Constitution of this state, prohibiting “slavery” and “involuntary servitude.” The claim is utterly without merit.

The application is denied.
