Detachment to Prepare Tents
Regiment at Ball
Game To-day

Civilian enthusiasm which has sur
rounded the old 6sth Regiment, now
the 165th, ever since it became known
that the men were soon TO so 10
France, has not waned.
Throughout yesterday a crowd of not
less than 500 persons packed itself in
orderly fashion on the east side Of
Lexington Avenue, at Twenty-ifth
Street, and cheered every wagon OF
supplies that came by on its way TO the
regiments camp at Mineola.
Word was passed along that some
23J men were TO leave for camp at 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and when
they finally got under way at 5:4J
o'clock, headed by their band and Lieu
tenant Sherman p. Plat, an assem-
blage of over a thousand wcll-wishcrs
bade them godspeed.
The departing troops were made up
of sixteen picked men from each COM
pary, with, additional experts on camp
arrangement added TO the complement.

main body of the regiment arrives at

newly appointed colonel of the 165th,

will care for the dependents of mem
bers of the regiment. The men will

Wilson's Letter
Revives Talk of
Draft Exemption
Many Contend He APP
proves Relieving Husbands
of Army Service

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-Renewed
discussion of the status OF married men
under the selective service law has been
aroused by the publication OF President
Wilson's letter to Senator Weeks deal
ing with this and other subjects. In
many quarters the Presidents state
ment that he had no doubt Senator
Weeks's point as to the exemption Of
married men was we'll taken was inter-
preted as an indication that he APP
proved exemption of any man Of family
who had not married merely TO escape
military duty. :.
The President has full power TO d.
rect that the regulations governing
selection be amended 10 this effect. a
proposal specifically to exempt all
married men was made when the Dill
was in the Senate, 81 amendment TO
that effect By Senator Smith, OF
Georgia, being lost by a wide margin.
This fact, together with the regula-
tons later promulgated by the Presi-
dent, making exemption possible only
in case of actual depndency, -
taken as an indication that no general
exemption for married men as class
will be given now.
Additional interpretations of the
regulations. issued to-day BY General
Crowder, provide that Great Lakes
mariners may have their places of ex-
animation by local boards transferred
to any one of the following lake posts:
Buffalo, Erie, Conneaut, Ashtabula,
Fairport, Painsville, Lorain, Huron,
Toledo, Sandusky, Detroit, Marquette,
Escanaba, Ashland, Superior, She
boyan, Milwaukee, Duluth, Two Har-
bors, Chicago or Gary. Any local
board in any Of these ports may make
the examination.
In cautioning local boards to-day
against attempting to fill quotas by Sc
Letting an inequitable number of men
who have waived exemption and are,
therefore, practically volunteers, Gem
eral Crowder said that the greatest
care must be exercised in sending for
ward the last 10 per cent of any quota.
"The last 10 per cent" he says, must
be selected with great care, to be sure
that no one in the whole quota is sent
for military duty while selected per-
son with an earlier order of obligation
for military service is allowed to re-
main ar home"

animation Are Deserters
Punishment Is Certain
Crowder Rules Slackers Will
Be Jailed, Then Made
to Serve

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-Renewed
instructions that drafted men who
failed to report for service will be
classed and punished as deserters were
sent to United States District Attor-
neys and agents of the Department of
Justice tonight by Attorney General
Gregory.
Provost Marshal General Crowder
has ruled that persons who neglect to
appear for examination will be accept
ed automatically and that the priv
ilege' of claiming exemption will DE
denied. 1t was 70 help carry this pol
icy into effect that the attorney gen.
eral acted. His instructions follow:
At has been determined by the pro-
vost marshal general that persons who
failed to appear for their physical eX-
animation after having received their
notices to do so from the local boards,
by such failure waive their right TO
physical examination and are accepted
by the board without such examination.
Their names will be certified to the
district boards as chosen by the local
boards for the National Army.
Lose Exemption Rights
ar they do not then appear to claim
exemptions, they will waive thereby the
right to such exemptions as they might
have claimed, and their names will be
certified by the district boards to the
adjutant generals of their respective
states as persons for the National
Army. The adjutant general will then
mail them a notice to report for duty
at a specified time and place, and such
notices will be given publicity accord
ing to the regulations Of the conscrip-
ton act.
"Such persons then become subject
to the military authorities at the time
designated by the adjutant general for
them to report Should they fail to
comply with this notice they become
deserters from the army, and will be
treated as such by the military au-
thorities.
Automatically Drafted
at is, therefore, matter of vital
concern, not so much to the govern
ment as to the persons themselves, 20
see that they give the correct address
for their notices to be mailed 10 them.
Should they fail to comply with these
notices after receiving them, they be-
come automatically drafted without
regard to physical examination or to
exemption or discharge.
where persons are known 10 be
wilfully refusing TO comply with the
requests Of the local boards and are
so conducting themselves as to be a
menace to the proper enforcement of
the CONSUMPTION act, and their where
abouts are known, they should be de-
tanned in Jail on complaints charging
violations of Section 6 of the con-
scription act until the time when they
are ordered by the adjutant general to
report for duty in the National Army.
They should. at that date. be turned
over to. the military authorities. No
prosecution need be had, as it will be
unnecessarily expensive and little is
to be gained thercfrom."
