OFFICIAL DRAFT POINTERS
OF LOCAL INTEREST

The Leader is in receipt of the
following article from the lnforma'
ton Bureau of the Adjutant Gen
erals Office at Portland:
Within few days official lists OF
the draft serial numbers. showing
the order in which they were drawn
in the lottery at Washington. will
reach the various county exemption
boards. Following receipt of the1e
lists, the boards will notify the men
called up on the first draft.
Until then il will not be neces-
sary for those subject to call on the
first draft to report. But ms soon
as they receive notification from
their boards, they must report
promptly on the day designated.
The first step taken by each
board will be TO post in IA conspic-
uous place a list containing the
names Of all the men registered in
its county or district, in the exact
order in which they will be called
on the first and all succeeding
drafts. A copy of this list will al
so be given the press for publica-
tion.
Let it be emphasized again that
this list will have not only the
names of the men to be called out
on the first draft, but Of every man
registered, in the order in which he
must be called. No person whatso-
ever has any authoity TO change this
order.
Having posted this list and given
a copy to the press, the board will
then notify by letter every man
called up on the first draft. Each
man will then be notified to appear
before the board for physical exam
ination on specified date, which
will be within seven days of the
mailing of the notice.
Failure to receive this notice will
not be accepted as an excuse for not
on the day set. The
burden of appearing when he is
called is on the man himself; there
is a heavy penalty for failure to an
5wer this call.
Remember that regardless Of
whether a man intends to apply for
exemption or discharge, he MUST
appear for physical examination on
Lhe day set. He has seven days
from the posting Of the list and
Inc mailing Of the notice TO him
by the board in which 10 file appli-
,ation for exemption, and ten
more days in which to file proof.
And remember again, that no
