District Exemption Boards


The exemption boards proper are the
district boards. which have power to say
whether the work man is doing at
home will be more important to the
government than his services as a SOL
der.
Information reaching Washington in
dicates that the selection boards ere
taking the view of their work that
makes that name fitting for them.
They are bent on finding men for the
army in the shortest possible time
When they certify any man to the high
er boards as held for service, the man
becomes a soldier and subject to SOL
der law. 1t will be the duty of the
provost marshal general from that time
on to see that he complies with all army
orders affecting him, and also to turn
him over to the army authorities when
he is called to the colors.
The quotas from the various dis
tricts will be assembled first at their
district headquarters, when the call
comes. Whether they will be turned
over to an army officer there and taken
TO their cantonment or whether one of
their number will be placed in charge to
conduct them to the cantonment has not
been decided.
