 AS TO EXEMPTIONS
 There is one other consideration which will affect the total number of men to be drawn. Opinion varies as to the num- Der of exemptions which must be made estimate of at least 50 per cent exemp- tions for physical or other causes has been generally employed in committing the probable size of the task before the exemption boards.
 It is not known whether the govern ment plans to call double the number of men actually needed on the first selection in order to provide against these exemp- tions. Possibly only the smaller number will be taken. to be filled out by later selections until the ranks are full. If the exemption factor Is allowed for in the first drawing, however, it seems likely that a million or million and a half names would be provided for at that time, the men to appear for examination in the order in which they were drawn and the cards of those not reached In any district where the quota was filled before they came up before the board, to be returned to the registration lists.
 Another factor being worked out in the selection regulations is the provision of the law requiring that each state be given credit at the drawings for the number of men it has supplied as volunteers in the regular army or the National Guard
 Eight states have reported completion of the organization of their local and district exemption boards. It appeared to- night that there is but slight possibility of getting the draft machinery in mo- ton by Monday. General Crowder asked that all boards be organized by tomor- row, but present indications are that this will be impossible.

The colo mel, therefore, ordered curtain fire di- rected in front of the Germans.
 INFANTRY ACTIVE
 Meanwhile the French infantry in the front line swept the German front lines with rifle fire and hand grenades, while the French trench mortars worked as never before. The German infantrymen. who could be seen waiting with bayo- nets fixed, found it impossible to leave their trenches and go over the top.

 General Petain responded to the Ger man effort by reducing salients in his lines east of the Teuton attacks. The French not only captured prisoners, but beat off counter attacks. showing that the Germans attached importance to the French gains.
 On the remainder of the French front and especially around the curve in the French line northeast of Soissons, vio- lent artillery engagements are in prog ress. To the north the British and Ger mans have shown little infantry activity outside patrol encounters and raids
 A great artillery battle is in progress on the front where the Russians made their sudden advance early this week. Near Zloroff and between Zlochoff and Erzezany in Galicia, the Russian and Ger man guns are hammering the opposing lines. and near SmUrgon, north of the Pripet marshes, the big guns are active.
 Signs of a overwhelming activity on the front in Rumania are increasing. and near Bialestchi German attempts to fra ternize with the Russians were answered by the artillery.
