Enlistment In Some.
Departments OF Navy
Postponed For Time

The local navy recruiting station
has received telegraphic advices from
the navy department to the effect that
enlistment of various classes will be
stopped for the time being. The rat
ingst affected are cooks, bakers. yeo-
men, machinists, a%viators, radio OPP
orators, and musicians, and no more
men will be accepted for these grades
until the order has been rescinded.
The reason for issuing this restric-
ton on the enlistment is not known,
but it is thought that it may be the
intention Of tho department to afford
better opportunities for speedy promo
ton for the apprentices who are lal-
ready in training at the various camps
and stations. Of the navy throughout
the country.
Enlistment can still be made in the
apprentice s%earnen's, the firemen,s and
water tenders ratings, and, in fact, in
all ratings except those specified in the
order received today.

assigned for sedentary work. or
women, had evoked angry protest

sharp criticism on the unwisdom of
such course when the national in

utmost possible amount of foodstuffs
should be home produced, and when
the public is being exhorted to devote
