 Not a single claim of 40 de- cided today by the Third dis trict board, appointed to hear appeals from local boards and to pass on industrial claims, was allowed. Of this number the board unqualifiedly denied 3l and in the. other nine cases allowed two conditional ex- emptions for three months and seven more for nine months
 Of the claims denied 31 were filed by Bridgeporters;, eight by Norwalkers and the last one was from Greenwich. Bridge 'porters procured seven of the nine temporary exemptions, that were allowed, and all but one of these were from the. First division.
 1S FzStAOA4 VI NA1O OS90A 0 -44 T 0SAA9 the industrial exemption claims fol- lows out the announcements of the provost marshal general, that muni- tions workers as a class would not be exempt. In some special cases, ex- perts have been spared until others can be trained to take the placed va cated with a reasonable degree of sue- .cess. This Is true of those who have been given temporary exemptions and the time allowed, has been figured in each instance according to the work the individual was doing and its neces- sity to the military establishment of the United States.
