: eminent experts. every phase or the
work has been mapped out with view
to making registration easy and eva
sion difficult. Secret Service agents
have been busy IN arresting agitators,
but still buster in watching others who
might be expected to make trouble

In this city the mechanical job OF
registry has been intrusted to the
Board OF Elections. Commissioner Id
ward +. BOYLE has obtained the use for
registration Of all the polling places
employed at the last election, with the
exception of about 100, for which sub
Stltutes have been found. And he has
obtained also the voluntary services of
5000 registrars, approximately three
10 an election district. practically all OF
them polling clerks and other election
officials with the proper training Tor
the Office.
Task for Registrars
These registrars will receive the ap-
plicants for registry one at time as
they present themselves at the regis
tration places. ask them the questions
printed on the registration card and
make out their cards for them. They
will be busy in this manner from
O'Clock in the morning until at night,
after which they will tabulate the re-
turns according to detailed instructions
set forth in the registration regula-
tions prescribed by the President.
Every young man subject to regis
tration should present himself on Tues
day at the registration place of the
election district in which he lives be-
tween z a. m. and 9 p. m.
The matter of exemption from mill
tary service for all those classes of
men specified in the selective draft
law will be dealt with by local eXemp-
ton boards to be designated by the
President after the registration is
complete. The medical examinations
will be made then, not on registration
day, and after registration also VIII
come up for settlement all those ques-
tions OF religious belief, of dependent
relatives and other claims of eXemp-
ton. All that is required of man
within the prescribed age limits on
registration day is that he present
himself at the proper registration
place and answer the questions put
to him.
Each Man to Get Certificate
this patriotic duty he will receive a
registration certificate, whose posses
sion will be as essential to his conven-
fence and freedom as that of permit
10 an alien enemy.
In connection with the business OF
registering and in accordance with he
proclamation of the President on the
subject, Tuesday will be day of patri-
otto demonstration all over the coun-
try. In New York the Mayors Com
mittee on National Defence, in coopera-
ton with the National Security League
and other patriotic organizations, has
arranged for patriotic exercises lasting
thirty minutes in all the public schools.
for musical services in the parks, and
special religious services in the
churches. The Deutscher Liederkranz
will conduct the singing exercises IN
City Hall Park, where. between tho
singing Of "The Star-Spangled Ban
ner" and Of America Mayor Mitchell
will make an address.
The Mayor has appointed TO take
charge of the city's registration the
following bodies: A board for the en-
tire city, one for each of the boroughs
and one for each of the sixty-three
Assembly districts. The board for the
entire city, entitled the Central Board
of Control, is composed of Edward F.
Boyle, president of the Board of Elcc
tons; P. Joseph Scully, City Clerk; DR..
Sigismund s. Goldwater, Henry A.
Wise, Timothy Healy, Lewis +. Pier
son and Edward c. Blum. The per-
sonnet of each board, as in the case of
the Central Board, includes physician,
it being the Mayors object so to con-
stitute these boards that the President
may, if he chooses, designate them as
exemption boards without further
change.
