APPARENT UNCERTAINTIES

| That there may be no misunder-
standing as to the operation of the
| draft TODAY, and the makesu1 of the ex-
emption boards may be kept clear p
/ lin mind, he following is stated as the
accepted procedure for HawaiiS-
J.. There is district board of the
Territory of Hawaii-the general
boards - j. = =
2. There are six local division
boards, one for each of the territorial
representative districts. For instance,
on Oahu, where there are two such
districts, the fourth and fifth election
districts, there are two local division
boards. Es -.
1t should be kept clearly in mind
that the designations of these boards
do not correspond to the designations,
of the political Representative dis
tricts. For instance, the work of the
fourth representative district, Oahu, is
handled by Local Board Division No.
I the fifth represe ntatiye district by
Local Board Division No. 2.
3. The drawing today is not the

Such a call can come in one of two
ways:

Tense was the feeling that greet
ed the first of the drawing, for not a
person in the crowd but realized the
solemnity of the occasion and the
part it meant for Hawaii in the ser.
vice of the nation. Seemingly the
crowd held its breath to catch the
first numbers.
The reading came clear and dis.
.tinet, two readers being employed at
a time and working alternately. As
they called the numbers were taken
down by lady clerks in the auditor
ium and by press reporters. In all
five different persons were keeping
this list.
1t was found after the first half
hour that the reading was going
slightly too fast, after which little
slower speed was taken and kept con-
slant throughout the day.
At 10:45 o'clock the 1000th number
was read. The rate at which the
drawing was conducted proved to be
on an average of 675 an hour. 1t is
not, probable that it will be completed
at this speed until 10 o'clock tonight.
The lady clerks who checked the
numbers were Miss Melika Peterson
of Mutual Telephone company. Miss
Bonita Maxwell of the Hawaiian
Electric, Miss Ruth Parr of the draft
office, Miss A. NJ, Gross and Miss
Margaret Tenancy of the local ex-
emption board. and Miss Kathleen
Ruckman of the Honolulu Gas conf
pany.
The readers were K. w. Gray o.
Honolulu Gas company, F. A. Taylor
of Hawaiian Electric, J. T. Dyer of
Oahu Railway company, Clement
Moriyama of the Mutual Telephone
and Thornton Hardy of the public
works department
Mills Boys Help
Four boys of tie eighth grade from
Mills school acted as runners and
clerks for the Star Bulletin today in
the big work of announcing Hawaii's
drafted men. They are:
T. Ishimura.
Hong Ming.
N. Misaka.
Chez Yam.
The drawing proceeded regularly
throughout the morning hours. Stops
Of two minutes were made every hour
TO give the workers and readers Al
spell, and at 10, IL and IL
noon respites five minutes were
allowed. The forces worked in relays,
and at noon those who had the hour
off l1nched while their partners kept
On at work.
Major Green was etatsd at the ease,
harmony and smooth even pace Of the
work. Not hitch developed. The
,nly disappointment was that by read.
ng the names slower the time which
t was first estimated the drawing
would be concluded fell far short OF
he actual operation. Major Green fig.
1red that perhaps it would not be con.
.luded by midnight as there are 5000
numbers to be drawn, and at p. m,
,nfy $500 numbers had been disposed
if. This leaves 500 to be handled
he balan,s of the day and at the rate
If 500 an hour it will be well on to
ward midnight before the drawing is

An interested crowd of officials and
,riyafe citizens ropped in at inter.
rals during the day to watch the work
