VOLUNTEERING To
END ON DECEMBER is
New Changes Are Most Drastic Yet
Announced Regarding the
Second Draft.

Washington Nov. 20-Voluntary
enlistment of all men between 81
and 81 years in the United States
army will cease on December Is.
This is the most drastic change
made in the new selective draft reg
ulations announced by Provost Mar.
.shal General Crowder recently.
Men between these ages may en-
list in the navy or marine corps up
ION presenting satisfactory evidence
that their serial numbers are so high
that they will not be affected by the
second draft.
To Offset the regulations prohib.
iting the voluntary enlistment OF
men, of draft age after December
Is, provisions are made for the spe.
cial induction into service of spe;
cialized workers. Secretary of Wal
Baker is given power to revoke the
classiications order of any regis
trant.
How Rule Will Work.
Therefore, if the Adjutant gener
al sends out call for $4,000 ma
ehinists for military duty, Secretary
Baker will revoke the classification
of machinists and the local board
will be so instructed. The quotai
of such local board will then b,
d1awn from the machinist regis
trants. When the required number
of men is secured, the remainde,
will revert to their former classif1
cation.
