HALF OF DRAFT
READY TOTAKE
UP ITS WORK
National Army Greatest Force
Nation Has Ever Moved
at One Time

Washington, Sept. 1s.-Three hum
bred thousand men of the national
brmy to-day are on their way to six
Ieen environments to undergo an in
ensive training period preparatory
for service over seas. To-day's in
krement represents approximately As
per cent. of the total quota under the
frst call from nearly 5000 exemp-
lion boards.
The transition from civilian to
military life was effected with a
minimum of delay. In every section
bf the country the men, called by the
Individual boards, were assem- bled,
placed under military discipline
Welded by one of their number Sc
|ected as leader and assigned to
|pecial troop trains now en- route to
|he mobilization camps. The new
Increment will join the first quota of
5000 men called to the colors Sep
Iember 5.
Because of obstacles encountered
by the War Department in procur-
|ng supplies it is probable that some
|f the men will be only partially
|quipped on arrival. No attempt to
outfit the units for war
|ervice will be made until just prior
10 the departure for France.
Well Under Way
Never in the history of the nation
las such force been moved in SINH
hr time. Every transportation
preparation has been made against
lne of the heaviest labors the rail-
loads have been called on to face.
With the arrival of these men at
|he camps the mobilization of the
(rafted forces will be we'll under
Eay. Five per cent. of the total
|orce is already in the camps, with
|he exception of Camp Meade, twenty
hiles from Baltimore, where mo-
(ilization will begin tomorrow De-
hys in building forced a postpone
hent.
The men will find the camps ready
|or them. Work on all of the great
wooden cantonments is almost COM
llete except at Meade and Upton, the
Few York camp. Both these are
|eady to accommodate the men who
Eill turn out in the movements begin
ling to-day.
The men about to go to camp will

Rospital accommodations. Especial
Ittention has been devoted to equip

Sosed to illness and disease

ages which develop as the canton
ments are opened will be temporary
Because of conditions it is pos
sille that some of the men in the
training camps may be but partially
equipped for time. 1t will be nee
essary.to utilize in part civilian cloth
ing while supplies are being deliv-
cred.
THE food situation at each can
tonment and abroad is reported as
gratifying and the quartermaster de-
partment has experienced fewer diff
ficulties in the supply of food than in
equipment"
General Crowder to-day delivered
a final ruling on exemption appeals.
Interpreting the Presidents regula-
tions for the draft. he said:
l. No appeals for exemption be-
cause of dependents or any other
than industrial or agricultural claims
may be appealed to the White House.
2. To prevent injustice to men with
dependents whose claims have been
rejected by local and district boards
an appeal for the reopening of the
case may be made to the Governor
of the state
8. No evidence or afIidavits sup
porting appeals for exemption on the
grounds of employment in vital in
dustry or agriculture that have not
been presented to the district boards
may be presented to the President.
Men Ready for Mobilization
Reports received by General Crow
der say all local boards are ready
with their 90 per cent. quotas or
dered out to-day and that there, will
be no hitch. The next quota of 40
per cent. will mobilize October 5.
Only white troops will be mo-
II ~, zfn x..I,
tonments are located. These negroes
also will be mustered in. In the
other states the negroes will not be
called out at this time, as the War
Department has not yet disposed of
the problem of their training.
Two exceptions to the 40 per cent
rules will be observed. At Camp
Upton, Yaphank,. Long Island, only
S5 per cent. will mobilize. while at
Camp Meade, Admiral. Md, As per
cent, divided between Eastern Penn
sylvania. the District of Columbia
and Maryland, will mobilize. This
includes the per cent. whose mo-
bilization on September was de-
layed.
With the mobilization of one-half
of the 6S7,000 men of the first call
under the selective service law in
progress, the question arises as to
whether that number of men will
be sufficient to fill all units of the
national guard and national army.
There are indications that a de-
ficiency in men will be disclosed when
official reports from all the train
ing camps are available.
Seventeen divisions of the national
guard have been organized, but with
the exception of the New York, Penn
sylvania ard a few others and the
Forty-second Division, which soon
will embark for France. they are not
at maximum war strength. The
fighting strength of the seventeen
divisions under the new tables of
organization would be $4,000 men
supplemented by many thousands of
auxiliary troops. Whatever de-
ficiencies there are will be supplied
promptly from the national army. as
the guard will 90 first to the front.

CHILD FORETELLS OWN
DEATH AND WARS END
Wisconsin Paper Tells Story of Dumb
Girl Who Speaks Only
to PrOphesy.

GRESHAM, Or, Sept. ia copy
Of the Fennimore, Wis, Times, re-
ceiyed by a resident of Gresham few
days ago, carries the story Of little
girl believed to be dumb from birth
who, few days ago at the age OF
three years, suddenly developed the
ability to speak plainly. Her mother
dropped a cup and broke it, and the
little girl solemnly announced cone
cup broken" The mother, startled at
hearing the child speak, dropped an
other cup, and a similar announce
ment was made by the little girl. A
physician, sent for in haste, repeated
the mothers performance when the
little girl is credited with the follow,
ing statement:
"Three cups broken, and am three
years old, and am going to die il
three days, and the war will end il
three months"
The child died three days later, &C.
cording to the story, and the people
of the neighborhood are eagerly
awaiting the passing of the next three
months to see if the rest of the
childs prophecy will come true.
