CHANCE ABOUT ONE
IN THREE OF BEING
SELECTED IN DRAFT

With registration over, nearly
10000, 900 young men of the country
are a%nxiously awaiting the next step
the draft. Regulations are now be.
ing worked out by Provost Marshal
General Crowder, and the answers to
the questions perplexing men eligible
for service will be delayed for several
days.
In round numbers a million and q
half names will be taken by lot from
the ten million registered. Chances
are about one in seven and a half OF
being selected in this lottery. Then
will follow exemptions on ground Of
occupation, dependent relatives anc
physical defects. This will cut the
number down to about 100000, SC
that the chance is about one in
three of being selected from the list
chosen by lot.
Broadly speaking, it may be sale
that those having dependent relatives
will be excused. Not all, however. II
the occupations of these men are
important to industry, they are more
likely to be excused. If the mar
with a dependent relative has nc
regular profession, or one from
which the income is uncertain, he
might still be selected, on the theory
that the $50 a month, soldiers paw
would go farther toward supporting
his relatives than would his uncertain
earnings.
1t is expected that about one maj
in three will measure up to physi-
cal requirements. These REQUIRE

In official circles it is privately
admitted that chief purpose of the
selective army is for defense of this
country. Men are now going to
France, and General Pershing will
soon have a couple of divisions there,
but it will probably be a long time
before the men now about to begin
active training will see. active serv-
ice of any kind. 1t is stated that Sc
lective service men who wish to par
ticipate in active fighting at once
should enlist in the navy, marine corps
or the regulars, as all these will go
before the selective army. This army
may all go, but this is left for the
future to determine.
Men in the selective service army
will be eligible to officers commands
and it is announced that the third
series of officers camps will be made
up of men chosen from the selective
soldiers.
