EXEMPTION BOARDS SHOULD
BE CHOSEN ON NATIONAL PLAN
W. A. Stuekey, Candidate for Gov.
ernor, Thinks South Carolina
Should Not Be Exception to
General Rule for States.

The Record
William A. Stuckey of Bishopville,
candidate for governor, has issued the
following statement on the compost
ton of boards of exemption in this
state:
''The position of the reform party
of South Carolina was clearly set
forth in a set of resolutions passed
in mass meeting held in Columbia on
May "A, and reiterated in a written
statement handed to General Crow
der by Cole L. Blease, chairman Of
committee, in Washington on Tues
day last, which position is that the
law with reference to registration and
exemption boards should be executed
in South Carolina as in other states
that is, that the normal boards should
be composed of the sheriffs, the
clerks of court and county physicians,
Men who have been elected by their
people and hold their confidence.
Should this, in any event, be found
impractical, that the minority, which
we think really constitutes in this
case majority, should have repre-
sentation on these boards. Only in
rare cases has the minority any
representation whatever on these ex-
emption boards.
"The reform party is made up OF
loyal and patriotic citizens, and any
discrimination against them is unjust
and founded on no grounds of reason
or wisdom. No less a statesman than
John c. Calhoun said that minority
representation should always consti-
tute a fundamental principle of just
and wise government"

Washington, June 22.-F'olloW1ng
receipt of war registration returns
from Wyoming and Kentucky, making
the nations final enrolment 9,649,-
93S, Provost Marshal General Crowd
er announced today that draft reguia-
tions will be ready for publication
July /, two months before the first
call to the colors. Details OF tine
machinery governing exemption
boards were not disclosed
In addition to the regularly tabu-
dated totals, 5000 Indians of eligible
age we're enrolled. Making allow
ances for the 100000 or more men al
ready in military or naval service, not
required to register, the provost mar
shal generals Office figured the CEN
sus bureaus estimate of 10,375,604 eli
gibles as approximately correct.
General Crowder foresees no more
complications with the selection ana
exemption machinery than was ex-
perienced with registration. Secre-
tary Baker repeatedly has given as
surance the selection will be so fair
that there would be no ground for
fears that any man will be favored
by reason OF political or other rela-
tions. In order that neighborhood
knowledge of mans work and his
dependents might aid in the task OF
sending to the front men who can be
spared at home, the country un-
doubtedly will be highly sub-divided
and IT,, exemption districts be small.

OUR OWN WEIGHT.

DR.. Harvey G. Beck OF University
Of Maryland told the Los Angeles
County Medical association simple
way to calculate what one ought to
weigh. First, he said, put down ITO,
then substract 5 feet from ones
height and multiply the number OF
inches that remain by 1-2. Add this
product to the original 10 and tne
sum is ones ideal weight.

Miles Nervine, and began to improve
before I had finished the first bottle
until I was entirely cured"
MRS. JOSEPH SNYDER,
262 Hudson St., THIN" Ohio.
Many remedies are recommended
for diseases of the nervous system
that fail to produce results because
they do not reach the seat of the
trouble. DR.. Miles Nervine has
proven its value in such cases so
many times that it is unnecessary
to make claims for it. You can
prove its merits for yourself by
getting a bottle of your druggist,
whe will return the price if you
receive no benefit.

officially announced at the Treasury
Department tonight.
The official figures were made pus-

in the IL federal reserve banks.
Statistics hurriedly compiled at the
department tonight estimate the $780,
600 persons, or SO per cent subscrib-
ed in amounts ranging from $50 to
$4,000. Twenty-one persons, OF
whom John D. Rockefeller was one,
subscribed in amounts of $5,000,0Oo
and more. The aggregate subscrlp-

vast lots was s1S8,7S9,s 900.

were based on the total of the bank
ing, resources of the federal reserve
district
Minneapolis, Kansas City and At
lanta fell behind the minimum allot-
ment they were expected to buy. San
Francisco went just $4,000 more
than the maximum expected of the
Pacific metropolis.
St. Louis went the minimum quota
of $4,000, ,OOp$6,134,70O better.
New York, as has been known for
several days, was the leader in the

great district which includes not only
the metropolis itself but important
places like Buffalo, Syracuse aud
Rochester, not to mention a dozen otn-
er wealthy manufacturing centers,

Philadelphia comes next in the mat
ter Of exceeding most hopeful expec-

ed New York's performance, compare
lively speaking, with total Of s2S,-

called on to accomplish was s175,-

Chicago rolled up an oversubscrip-
ton of s52,OOO,OOO. The biggest lag
gard in the group was the district
in which Kansas City is the banking
center. Instead of buying to the ap-
portioned limit of $125, 100000, Or ev-
en- to the minimum figure OF $780,
100000, Kansas City folk felt only a
