Draft DrdDing Held Today
Washington, July I9

room Of the senate Oftlce
 building has been. fixed as
 the time and place for the
 war office drawing.
 Secretary Baker and other
 cabinet officers and members
 of the senate and house
 military committees will wit ness the drawing. Provost
 Marshal General Crowder counts upon finishing in lit tie more than an hour the entire process, which will fix the order of liability for appearance before the local exemption boards of each man of ten million regis tered.
 Ten million men are re- gistered in the United States for war service, 687, 1000 are needed in the first call for the national army. Who shall go first?
 This question is asked and the method by which it is to be answered outlined by Provost Marshal General Crowder in an explanation issued today of the great drawing about to be held in Washington. The scheme evolved is so simple that the drafting of one set of a thousand numerals and an- other of ten will fix with absolute equality of chance the order in which every one of the ten million registrants shall report to his local board for examination and subse- quent exemption, disharge or acceptance for military service.
 Since the average exemp- tion district registration is 5000 and there are 4,557 districts, the average num- Der men listed with each operation of the drawing machinery will be about 10,- 900.
 General Crowder amour ces also that all local boards will be instructed to call 200 per cent of their quota at the first call to provide for probable exemptions. That means that 1874, 900 men will be notified to appear for examination within the next few days. If more are ne- cessary, they will be called as needed by the local boards in the order provided for in the drawing.
 In some districts the 100 per cent allowance for ex- emption may be too large and in others too small, but the local boards will be in- structed in every case to con- tlnue calling for men until the district quota is filled. Each state governor is now allotting to his districts their respective portions of the states quota.
 In each of the 4,557 ex- emption districts al amon.g which the ten million regis tration cards have been di- vided, the cards have been given serial numbers. The number of registrants in each district varies from about 1855 in the smallest to more than 5000 in the lar gest, so the serial numbers to be dealt with in the draw ing range from one to be- tween nine and ten thou sand.
