7, is not believed that there will
be any great change in the present
rulings.
Reports concerning few local
boards" General Crowde- sad today,
ARE to the effect that these boards
are proceeding to call out the whole
list OF persons registered. then TO GER
tify up only those who claim no eX-
enpGon. regardless OF whether their
order OF obligation places them within
their quota. {eaving the claims Of eX-
emption undecided or merely formally
allowing them all without discrimina-
ton.
Tn effect this course permits vol
unteer.ng among registrants.
This method IS Illegal and an
authorized. All regtstrants stand In
an equality before the law except ~
the law DEGREES an inequality. Fur
thermore the method results IN calling
men for military service out Of their
order"
District and local boards, General
Crowder says must determine exemp-
ton claims as rapidly posi- BILE
especially those of persons who come
early on the list The Arst thirty
per cent called September /. may in
c!ude men who would not ordinarily
be called until the second thirty per
cent is sent UP on the 10 of Septem-
Der. General Crowder says, while
claims for exemption OF the first men
called are still pending
Great care must be taken Cen
ereal Crowder warns, by the local
board to send no one to military duty
whose order of obligation is Sc late
as to make II i'm Improbable that he Will
be within the total quota.
Ia sent for military duty while Sc
lected with the greatest care to be
sure that no one IN the whole quota
lected person of an earlier order OF
obligation for military service is al
lowed to remain at home
The war department today con-
tinues to maintain the strictest silence
about the order in which national
guard units will be sent 10 France.
Speculation as to the order is dis
tinctly discouraged
The press liz asked TO refrain from
statements as TO the movement of
troops to France. or in any way to in
dictate the order of the time Of their
going
