Registration Distinct From Draft.

The war department makes the
following statements:
From many letters received daily
the war department learns that regis
tration and selective draft are being
confounded. These are separate and
distinct processes. Registration is
simply the enrolling of all male resi-
dents of the United States between
the ages of 21 and 80, inclusive.
Every male resident between the
designated ages must register on the
date set by the presidents proclama-
tion unless he is in the regular army,
the navy, the National Guard, or
naval militia, actually in the federal
service.
The enrolling is done in each vot-
ing precinct by registrar appoint
ed for the purpose. The duties of
the registrar are mandatory and are
performed under the sanction of an
oath. Nothing is left to his discre-
ton. He is liable to heavy penalty,
Imprisonment with no, alternative of
fine. for making a false return or in
any way being party to or conniy-
ing at practices or favoritism or
evasion. A like penalty impends>
over the individual who fails to regis
ter.
The later process of selection will
be made by lot from the names en-
tered on the registration rolls. Full
information as to exemptions and
methods of selection will be publish
ed later. For the present it is all
important that the primary duty OF
registration be impressed upon all
who are subject to it.
Interpreters will be needed, es-
pecially in the foreign sections of our
large cities. to assist in answering
questions on the registration cards.
Here is an opportunity for service by
those who speak other languages
than English. Schools and colleges,
too, will find in this patriotic func-
ton. The war department requests
that volunteers for this work offer
their service at once to the sheriffs
of their respective counties, or, If
they live in cities of 10000 or over,
to the mayors.
