State Officials to
Round Up Slackers

Albany. June l1.-District attorneys
and sherifs of New York State were
called upon tonight by Governor Whit
man 70 exercise their full duties in an
aggressive campaign to detect and ar
rest persons subject to the Federal reg
istration OF June 5, but who did not
register. The Governor directed the
officers to bring each case promptly TO
the attention of the nearest represent
ative of the Federal Department Of JUS
tice. :.
"The period of leniency for those who
neglected to register on June D has now
passed." the Governor stated There
is no longer any argument upon which
the conduct Of non-registrants can be
condoned."
In order 10 detect registrants as
swiftly and as Systematically as pos
sible Governor Whitman made the fol-
lowing suggestions:
Prompt posting Of the lists OF per-
sons who have registered and wide pub
licity throughout the county for those
lists. as provided for in Section 80 Of
the registration regulations.
"A comparison of the summarization

Gompers Wants
Labor on Draft
Exemption Boards
No Discrimination Only
Way to Prevent Ill
Will


Washington, June il.-Labor repre-
sentation on the draft exemption
boards will be the chief subject matter
Of a conference TO be held Friday be-
tween Secretary Of Labor Wilson, Sec
retary of War Baker and Samuel
Gompers, president Of the American
Federation of Labor The possibility
Of discrimination against laborng
classes, it is known, has been upper
most in the minds Of labor leaders for
several weeks. Strong representations
urging the appointment Of labor men 70
the exemption boards have come TO the
federation headquarters from all parts
of the country. according 70 state
ment made by Mr.. Gompers to-day.
ut Is fundamental that we should
guard against opportunities for dis
elimination in making exemptions
said Mr. Gompers. THE government
must avoid cause for III will resulting
from sense of injustice. The good
will OF all citizens is necessary for
that cooperation which will enable our
republic 20 conduct a successful and
effective war for freedom and democ-
racy.
mo one in touch with the present
situation imagines that the spirit Of
greed has been eliminated completely
from the industrial and commercial
world Though We regret II, we cannot
blind ourselves 10 the fact that the
spirit of profiteering makes some en-
ployers willing TO exploit workers and
the nations need. even IN this worlds
critical emergency Firms in several
localities have asked for soldiers 70
prevent workers trying through legiti-
mate methods 20 obtain higher wages
in order that their standards may not
be lowered through the constantly IN
creasing costs of living.
I'VE know then that these unprin-
cipled, heartless employers will not
hesitate 10 make use of cOnscrlptlon
machinery 20 rid themselves of "unde-
sirable' workmen and thus give such
employers "A free hand 20 force unen-
durable conditions of work and pay.
at is the desire of all good citizens
that in our efforts 10 ght war for
justice abroad we shall not at the same
time impose injustice upon men and
women at home. In order 20 prevent
discrimination or favoritism and TO
create in the minds of the masses OF
citizens condence that the government
desires 10 do justice 20 all, the organ
lied labor movement urges that repre-
stntatives of labor be upon all exemp- |
tion boards This matter has been /
taken up with officers charged with the /
