Note 17 — AMENDMENT 13

Arver v. United States (Selective Draft Law Cases), 245 U.S. 366, 390 (1918); United States v. Brooks, 54 F. Supp. 995 (1944); affirmed 147 F. (2d) 134 (1945); certiorari denied, 324 U.S. 878 (1945). It may be noted in this connection that labor leaders have contended that conscription of labor in time of war, unaccompanied by nationalization of industry, would mean that the conscripts, having thus been forced by the Government to work for private profit, would be reduced to involuntary servitude. This position is not supported by the precedents.—See Corwin, Total War and the Constitution, 89-90 (1947).
