With other big plants here seeking

DEPENDENT Wife
WILL EXEMPT MAN
PRESIDENT ORDERS THAT WIFE
SHOULD NOT BE FORCED TO
SUPPORT SELF.
MANY PROTESTS CAUSE CHANGE
If Wife or Children Are Dependent On
Mans Earnings for Support He
Will Be Discharged.

ashington-President Wilson Sat
urday ruled that wives of men select
ed in the draft should not, because
they had employment before marriage.
be thrown upon their own resources
or upon charity of their own or their
husbands parents for support.
He ordered that all men upon whose
labors their wives or children depend
entirely for support should be exempt.
His action was taken in response To
nationwide protests against the inter
probation placed on the draft law by
Provost Marshal Gen. Crowder's Office
that a woman whose parents or whose
husbands parents were able and will
ing to support her and her children.
or who was qualified to gain her own
support, should be thrown upon those
resources and her husband sent to
war.
Provost marshal Crowder explained
that part of the law pertaining to de-
pendents, as follows:
at means" he said, that If man
has been dependent for the support OF
his family not on his own efforts and
labor, but on the assistance which was
given him by his own or his wife's
parents, he will not be subject to ex
emption. But if his wife and his chill
dren if any, are dependent upon his
own earnings for their support wheth
er either has parents able to support
the wife and children, he will be dis.
charged.
1T must be understood, however,
that this does not apply if part OF his
income on which he supports his wife
and children is derived from continu.
ing source-that is legacy, an es.
tate, land holdings, stocks, bonds OF
similar holdings, the income from
which would continue to flow in to the
wife during his absence and adequate
ly support her. The same is true if
she has such a source of income.
But, if the livelihood of the woman
and children. If any, depends entirely
or principally upon the mans earnings,
he is subject to discharge"

MUST SERVE IN ORDER DRAWN
Volunteer Cannot Serve in Place Of
Friend or Relative.

Lansing-There can be no volun-
teering in the new national army; nor
can a man whose name is at the bot
tom Of the list have his name placed
closer to the top in order that he
may surely be called to the colors.
These two matters have been def
nitely ruled upon by Major Samuel
Pepper. judge advocate of the Mich
igan National Guard. Many inquiries
prompted the rulings.
Several boards had applications for
voluntary enlistments, and quite a
few of them reported cases where
men down on the list wanted to be
taken and diminish the chances for
brothers, relatives or friends who
were afraid that their exemption
claims would not be considered.
In quite a few instances over the
state younger brothers who were
we'll down on the list-in such posi-.
tions that it did not seem at all pos
sible that they would be called-went
to the front to save older ones who
were higher up and who had depend
ents. Case after case of this kind
was reported 20 Lansing but Major
Pepper insisted that while such a
procedure, might in certain circum-
stances, be laudable enough, it was
absolutely barred under the law. 1t
amounted to a substitution and for
that reason was not permissible.

PLAN VOTE ON BEER IN 1918
Retail Liquor Dealers Will Try to
Have Ban Removed.

Lansing-That an effort will be
made for the re-submission of the
liquor question in Michigan in No
vember, 1918, was indicated when the
Retail Liquor Dealers association of
the state met at Saginaw in annual
convention.
The plan seems to be to retain the
ban on spirituous liquor which will
then be in effect, but to remove the
prohibition on beer and light winer.
II is the contention of some of the
dealers that many who voted for pro-
hibition last fall did so with the ex-
pectation of getting supplies else
where, but that since the Webb-Ken-
yon act has made prohibition states
"bone dry" they are dissatisfied.
Dry workers believe the vets have
little chance of putting anything
over" and for proof point to the ex-
perience OF Oregon and Colorado.
Each of those states went dry by
small majorities, effective January 1,
1916. In November of the same year
the beer amendment was submitted
by the vets and in each case the peo-
pie turned it down by more than
twice the majority given the original
prohibition measure.

MOBILIZATION
Time CHANGED
ONLY FIVE PER CENT OF NEW
ARMY TO BE CALLED TO
CAMP SEPTEMBER
ORIGINAL ORDER CALLED 3O%
Forty Per Cent to Be Called Sept. 10,
10 Per Cent Oct. 3, and Last
rs Per Cent Soon Thereafter.

Washington-Provost Marshal Cen
eral Crowder sent to governors OF
states an order changing the proper
ton of the various state quotas OF men,
selected for the national army, that
are required to be furnished on GER
tain dates.
The new order calls for 5 per cent
of each states quota to report at can
tonments September 5; 40 per cent Sep
TENDER 10. 40 per cent October 8, and
the remaining Is per cent as soon
thereafter as practicable.
Reasons for the change were given
by General Crowder as follows: In
announcing the decision to mobilize
only per cent of the national army
on September instead of 80 per cent,
the opportunity is taken to give to To-
cal and district boards the credit due
them for the overwhelming amount OF
work they have accomplished in scru-
tiniZing the thousands of cases that
IL was necessary for them to examine
in order to have 80 per cent of their
quota ready September 5.
Reports received from prdCIlCdlly
every state in the union show that ev-
cry state would have ready much more
than 80 per cent of its quota Septem-
Der and the majority of them would
have been ready with their entire
quotas on that date. This service has
required month of the most exacting
work on the part of boards. This work
was consummated under adverse con-
ditions and is in large part uncompen-
stated.
at stands as one of the most signifi-
cant expressions of substantial patriot
ism and devotion on the part of $4,000
men selected from among the best citi-
Zens of the country
''In order that it may not be nee
essary to make any special railway ar
rangements and to prevent conges-
ton of normal railway traffic, local
boards should be instructed to send
approximately 1 per cent of their
quotas on each of five successive days,
beginning September g."

Member of Board to Follow Troops
to France SO Prompt Care Can

Lansing.-From the moment Mich
igan soldier is wounded in a French
battlefield until he has entirely recov-
cred, whether the period of conval-
escence takes place in base hospital
back of the lines or in an American
hospital, he will be cared for in the
minutest detail by officials of an or
ganization now being planned by he
war preparedness board and which
will be financed by that institution,
according to a statement given out
during visit of Governor Sleeper at
mobilization camp, Grayling.
Plans for organization are not yet
complete but as outlined the war
preparedness board will spare no
effort or expense to care for Michigan
men at the battle front "Some where
in France"
One or more members of the board
will follow Michigan troops to France
and will work probably in conjunction
with the medical department of the
brigade.
When a soldier is wounded so Sc
riously it becomes necessary to re
turn him to the United States for re-
covery, arrangements will be made for
his transportation.
In the Atlantic port at which he
lands he will be met by other agents
Of the state. His parents will be mott
fed and if circumstances warrant
funds will be furnished to transport
one or more of them to his bedside.
When able, he will be moved to his
home town for final recuperation.

Army Officials Estimate
That 90 Per Cent of Men
Passed Are Physically Fit

Misunderstanding officials es-
timated fully 80 per cent of the
men passed for service as physi-
cally mt by the local boards would
be accepted after examination at
the mobilization camps by army
surgeons.
This means that approximately
$500 men will be sent home from
the mobilization camps. Local
boards will be ordered to call new
men Immediately to fill each such
5 vacancy in their Jurisdiction.
At many local boards it is said
that nearly 25 per cent of the men
passed by the examining physi-
clans will be rejected by army
doctors at mobilization camps.
