NUMBERS WILL Be
USED IN THE DRAFT
Federal Government Itself
Will Do All Drafting For
Military Service.

Regulations for drafting the new
national army, now awaiting the
approval of President Wilson, con
tain provision for every step in the
great undertaking, except the actua
method of the draft itself,
No official announcement has
been made, and official confirmation
is being withheld, but it has been
stated, and generally accepted in
Washington as true, that the feder-
al government itself will DO the
drafting, probably in Washington,
so there will be no opportunity for
local fdyoritism, political or other
wise.
AS the regulations stand now,
every registered man bears a num-
Der. The numbers will be forward
ed to Washington and the drawing
will be entirely by number. The
identity of the numbered men will
be entirely unknown to those in
charge of the draft machinery, and
can be established only by compar-
ing number with printed list in
the mans home district.
AS the numbers are drawn they
will be telegraphed to the home
districts, where the registered men
will learn if they have been drafted
Then the question of exemptions
will come up, and this will 90 be-
fore the local boards. If a man is
exempted the man bearing the
number which was drawn next in
order will take his place.
In this way all those available
for service out of the 100000
who registered will be made ready
for the country's call, and from
them the first increment of 625,000
will be assembled. The others will
be called as the need develops.
Plenty of time will be given for
drafted men to arrange their per-
sonal affairs and report to the can
tonment camps, 1t is hoped to
have them all in training by Sep
tember /, or very soon thereafter.
