RECRUITING FOR THE
REGULAR ARMY GOES
RATHER SLOW HERE
Knox County's Quota For U.
S. Regulars Is so And "a
More Are Needed

In a statement given out Monday
Recruiting Onicer Emich, who has
been stationed in this city for several
weeks recruiting men for the u. 5.
regular army said that Knox county
is not responding nearly as readily
as had been expected. The full quo
Ia of men assessed against Knox
county by the regular army is GO men
and according to the recruiting olfic
er only 81 have enlisted so far, leav-
ing 26 yet to be secured. The infan-
try of the regular army, he says, needs
$4,000 men to bring it to war strength
and cooks and bakers are in demand
in the Quartermastcr's department. In
addition TO this balloon corps has
recently been organized and needs p
900 men. This new organization will
be connected with the signal corps.
Special emphasis is being placed
upon the approaching draft by the re
cruiting officer located here, who
points ont that it is much more pleas
ant for men to pick their branch df
the service rather than be forced into
some branch regardless of their wish
es. The recruiting officer is located
at the Wisncr hotel.
