NATIONS REGISTRATION
WILL EXCEED EXPECTATIONS

Washington, June 6.--From re-
turns received at the adjutant gen
erals ONCE, II Is apparent that the
registration In the country Is goins
to exceed the war departments es'
innate. In some districts nearly hall
the population registered.
Save In New York. there was prac'
tically no trouble. From state after
state. kilograms that full registra'
ton had quietly gone to the polls
and listed their names, came to head
quarters.
A typical telegram read. Regis
tration will be 100 per cent. spon'
taneous and without murmur."
A feature OF the registration was
the refusal OF hundreds OF thousands
OF men to make any reply TO the
question, DO you claim exemption
Even men who reported that they
had dependent families; men with
obvious physical disabilities and
those whose occupations are certain
to keep them at home declined to
make such claim. Apparently they
have entered fully into the very spirit
Of the law, They are content to
leave the question to the examina-
tion boards, With the closing OF
each registration precinct. off,cials
went at once to the task OF sorting
and classifying the cards. There is
much work to be done before this
work In completed.
