thought that every board in the
county will have available at least
five percent of its quota by Sept. 9Th
and therefore that it will not be nee
essary for the adjutant general of
the state 10 call upon any board for
more or less than FIVE percent.
Since no special traffic ARE uge-
ments are necessary the adju;ant
general of the state may leave to To-
al boards the routing of their men,
requiring such boards 10 send the
small daily groups by the shortest
usually travelled route to the mob
ilization camp shown in the distribu-
ton sheets already furnished local
boards.
The provisions of sections .. s. 4,
>. Z, -. Is. and Il 10 q of the mob
ilization regulations must be com
piled with but the governor is au-
thOrized TO prescribe such modifica-
lions of the other sections of those
regulations as will best accommo-
date them 10 the assembly and move
ment of these small groups of men.
Practically all that will ordinarily be
necessary is for the local boards to
select their men. call them for mill
tary duty. provide for thei: subsist-
ence and lodgings and transportation
and dispatch them by the shortest
practicable route to the mobiliZa-
ton camp. Insofar as section five
requires an initial assembly not less
than j hours before train time, that
section may also be modified in the
discretion Of the governor for the
purpose of the present movement
In case local conditions are likely
10 present traffic problems the rail
road representative mentioned in my
1865 is available to the governor for
consultation and assistance. The
governor should feel that he has full
authority TO make such notifications
as may be necessary to meet special
situations as long as these modifica-
tions insure the required notice TO
the men and the delivery of the pre-
else number of men at the proper
time with the necessary papers and
without cOngesting the ordinary
train service Of the state.
The movement on Sept. 18th will
he governed by mobilization regula
tions and my 1865. The change of
schedule Indicated herein will give
ample time for study Of that plan
and for any exchange of congestion
necessary 10 meet local conditions.

The object of calling five percent
is TO place in the camps enough men
