K. C.'s Raising Generous Fund


The Knights of Columbus has been
recognized by the War Department as
the official agency for relief work
for Catholic soldiers, and the organ
ization accordingly undertook the
raising of a million dollar fund to
carry on the work among the SOL
diers, but this amount was so quick
ly oversubscribed that the organiza-
tion has now set it's mark at five
millions.
A committee consisting of c. A.
Dushek, D. H. Lawler and DR.. E. t..
Fitzgerald; together with Rev. Ed
wardN Jones, pastor, are now raising
fund among the members of st. Ed
wards Council, No. 1927, and expect
to raise between $500 and $1,000 for
this noble work.
The money will be not only for
the erection and maintenance of re-
creation centers at the sixteen can
tonments where the new army will
train, but also in providing for the
spiritual welfare of the men. The
knights of Columbus did splendid
work among the troops that we're on
the Mexican border, and is we'll or

far greater work for the new army.

NEW ORDINANCE WILL
REACH DISTURBERS
Those Who Teach the Necessity of
Crime or Violence Classed as
Migrants

The city of Norris will not be
powerless to prevent any person or
persons from teaching the necessity
of crime or violence as a means of
accomplishing industrial or politi-
cal ends, and it will also have auth
ority to stop those who teach dis
regard of duty to the United States.
The City Commission passed an or
dinance this week which classes these
and similar crimes as vagrancy, pun
ishable by a fine of $40 to 500, or
imprisonment for ten to ninety days.
The ordinance provides:-
ANY person found within the City
of Morris, Minnesota, who by word
of mouth or in writing advocates
or teaches in said City or is about
to advocate or teach therein, or hab-
itually advocates or teaches, or is
engaged in whole or intpart in the
occupation, whether for gain or
gratuitously, of advocating, advis-
ing or teaching the duty, necessity
or propriety of crime or of violence
as means of accomplishing indus
trial or political ends, shall be gull
ty of vagrancy."
A like provision prohibits the lad
vocating, advising or teaching the
violation or disregard of any duty
or obligation imposed by any statute
of this State, or of the United States,
upon any person or class of persons -
and another section forbids a person
by any written or printed matter
or oral speech to advocate that citi-
zens of this State shall not or ought
not aid or assist the United States
in prosecuting or carrying on wa1
with the public enemies of the I'm
tied States"

Farming Does Not Exempt

Not even temporary discharge from
military service on the grounds of in
dustrial necessity will be given draft
ed farmers, Provost Marshal General
Crowder announced Monday in Wash
ingtOn.
"Such necessity may be impera-
tive" he said in respect to men gath
ering the fall crop, "but is only temp
orary.
Its termination will vary in the
various regions and for the different
crops, but hardly can continue be-
yond the third or fourth week of
September, even in the most north
ern latitude"
Farmers of the Northwest will be
able to retain their help until late in
September or early in October
through system of ordering the new
national army into training by con-
tingents.
General Crowder has ruled that To-
cal boards may call farm labor to the
coIors at one of the later dates.
Thus the temporary need of leav-
ing those men on the farms,' he said,
will be satisfied without complicat-
ing or diminishing the quota &C
counts by carrying those men as dis
charged temporarily"

Heavy Exemption Claims Exhaust
the First 12O Without Filling
County's Quota
EXAMINED NEXT TUESDAY
County Must Supply an Extra Ten
Per Cent, or Sixty-Six Men in

Of the first forty men who re
sponded to the call for the seIective
draft on Tuesday, only one was found
not physically qualified for army
service, but only three did not claim
exemption. On Wednesday and
Thursday the number was increased,
but still fell short of the necessary
quota, and on Wednesday the board
decided to call up the next 80 men
for examination.
Besides raising the full quota of
so men from this county, it is neces-
sary for the board to examine and
certify an additional ten per cent
to allow for those who may later
fail on the physical examination or
be exempted by the district board
This makes it necessary for the coun-
ty board to find 66 possible soldiers
in this county.
On the first day about one-third
of the men claimed occupatiOnal ex-
emptions and about the same pro-
portion was maintained the other
days. These claims must go to the
district board, and it now becomes
apparent that practically all of them
will be denied. There has been a
Widespread belief that farmers and
farm boys would be exempted, but
it is now apparent that the govern
ment never intended to exempt farm
boys in any such wholesale manner
as is now bein claimed. The papers
have repeatedly urged the exempting
Of farm boys on account of the
necessity of maintaining farm pro-
ductiOn at its highest level, and
the draft law gives the War Depart
ment authority to exempt persons
engaged in agriculture, but the War
Department has evidently not con-
templated any such exemption.
Thousands of occupational exemp-
tiOn claims will come before the dis
trict boards, but in as much as the
local board certifies an excess of only
ten per cent, it is apparent that the
government expects very few exemp-
tion claims to be allowed by the dis
trict board
Reduced to simplest terms, the
draft law evidently means that for
practical purposes the only ones ex-
empt are those physically unfit, OF
those having dependent relatives
and these later will be scrutinized
closely.
The local board has now been in
session for three days and have found
forty who will be certified to the
district board as physically fit anG
without dependents. Many of these
are true blue and will not claim
any exemption of any kind. Those
who will be certified are:

EXEMPTION BOARDS
BUSY WITH CLAIMS
Provost Marshal Rules Public Is En-
titled to Know Those Claiming
Exemptions

In an effort to check in part the
large ratio of exemption claims en-
tered by young drafted men passing
the physical examination, Adjustant
General Fred B. Wood has ordered
every local board to make public
through the press the name of every
man asking exemption and the rea-
son given for the claim. Lists from
every board of all such men are to be
furnished the newspapers daily, Gen
eral Wood said. He expressed be-
lief that if publicity were given the
claims those "of the f1imsier sort, "
which he said already have mounted
to thousands, would be held back.
Men exempted on grounds of ply
sical disability come in wholly diff
erent class, General Wood said. Their
names will not be given out for pub
licatiOn.
AS the situation has shaped itself
the drafted man who claims eXemp-
tion has the gauntlet of four govern
ment agencies to run after he has
beaten down his own conscience and
pride. These will be:
The local board, with which the
original claim for exemption is en-
tered and by which the first decision
is rendered.
