PREPARING TO TAKE
MILITARY CENSUS
Sheriff, Clerk and County
Physician Compose Reg
ishy Board

Detailed instructions from Secretary
of War Baker relative to the method
of taking the military census have
been received hy Governor Withyeombe
who, in turn, has notified the sheriffs
| of the counties in Oregon TO be prepar-
ed To facilitate the taking Of the cen
sus as much as possible. Although the
final details have not yet been made,
liz is planned 10 work with the county
Officials as a board. This board Is COM
posed of the sheriff, the county clerk,
and the county physician.
BY proclamation. shortly after the
leonscription bin is signed, President
Wilson plans 10 call all men between
the prescribed ages to appear before
the registration board for examination
and listing. On that day, the men will
repair to their regular precinct voting
places and register
The letters of Secretary Baker and
IGOvernor Withycombe follow;
Bakers Letter
"'It is proposed to execute SO much
of the law as | have here discussed
Ialong the following lines. BY proelama-
Ition, the president win call upon per
isons of the designated classes to pre-
sent themselves on certain day at the
customary polling places in their dom
liciliary voting precincts. The precincts
lare now delineated with contained pop
Iulations of convenient size for enum-
Grafton in one day In nearly all of
them there is provision of method
and material to that end. The voting
precinct, shall. therefore, be the pri-
mary registration area. For each the
service of registrars must be secured;
but, so well are their populations pro
portioned to enumerate, that in most
of them one registrar will be sufficient.
1t is felt that much voluntary service
will be offered. 1t would be gratifying
to think that in each precinct the po.
sition of registrar could be filled by
competent and responsible citizens who
would claim no compensation, but while
II desire to encourage such offers, ]
shall not rely ON them.

to the sheriffs of the several counties

the drafting of citizens for the army,
