FIRM SAYS DRAFT
WILL HAMPER US.
Makes Plea for Man Who
Replaced One Germans
Influenced
WORKING ON GUN SIGHTS

| German influence robbed Stokes & Smith
machine tool manufacturers, OF a valuable
man employed on Government work OF great
Importance and only with great difficulty
| did the firm obtain man who could take
his place Now that man has been called
! for service in the new National Army
| and denied exemption by his district board.
| The firms work for the Government will
| be seriously hampered IL he Ia not exempted.
That is the substance Of an affidavit
| filed by J. Stogdell Stokes, of the firm, on
behalf OF the employe, with District Appeal
Board No. 2. sitting in the Postofiice Build
ing. today.
The man for whom exemption Is asked
Is Charles II. Nltsch, who, Mr.. Stokes
says, is an expert craftsman who has few
equals in this country He Is working
on gunsghts for the F'rankford Arsenal,
and also is designing a machine for wrap
ping f1rst-aid kits for soldiers. His serv-
ices In the workshop are worth those of
fifty men on the battle line. said Mr..
Stokes.
GERMANS GOT ONE MAN AWAY
A man named James D. Relfsnyder, for
merly held this position, said Mr.. Stokes.
and was an extremely valuable man. but
German influences inveigled him into leav-
ing. After great difficulty Nitsch was found
10 Ill tne place.
Mr.. Stokes said his Arm employed 283
men, and Nitsch was the only one for whom
exemption was asked.
How the cty's draft appeal boards are
solving the perpexing exemption problems
will become known today when Appeal
Board No. / hands down a batch Of de-
cisons.
DR.. C. II. Willis, secretary Of the board,
estimates that the fate of nearly 100 army
IN. 1t,
and for the purpose of relieving their anx-
iety made the announcement that II would
be late today before the draft rulings are
made public.
The decisions involve industrial claims
and will be the first to be handed down by
any of the appeal boards In Pennsylvania
That the appeal boards have been slow to
make decisions was admitted today by draft
officials although blame for the delay was
shifted to the local draft boards. Doctor
Willis made no secret of the fact that more
than half of the fifty-one local draft boards
have failed to comply with the draft rules
and regulations.
LOCAL BOARDS TARDY
Each local board" said Doctor Willis,
was instructed to keep its slate clean in re-
gard to appeal cases According to the
draft rules each local board is compelled
to send all such data to the appeal boards
at the close Of each day, but that rule has
not been followed. Appeals which must
come to us through the local boards in our
territory have been coming in very slowly.
and as result the work of deciding these
cases has been held up. At the present
time I don't believe that half of the fifty
one local boards have started to file appeal
cases with the appellate boards"

LONOKE TO BE SITE OF
 GREAT AVIATION CAMPS

Little Rock, Oct. 27.-NeXt to the location of the cantonment in Little Rock, the biggest thing that has come to Arkansas as a result of our en- trance into the war is the selection of Lonoke as the site for one of the great aviation camps. Relatively, it means much more to Lonoke than does the cantonment to Little Rock. It will cost about two million dollars to es- tablish the camp, and there will be stationed in it about 2000 men in training, none of them receiving less than S100 a month. The homes of Lonoke, aside from the hotels and rooming houses, are already greatly over-taxed to take care of the strang- CTS that are coming to town on ac- count of it, although it has been less than a week that Lonoke had been selected Arrangements are to be made to run trains between Little Rock and Lonoke to enable the work men and others who cannot secure ac- commodations there to live in Little Rock. Army officials who visited the site declare that is is one of the most ideal that has been offered anywhere in the country.
