Registration is distinct from Sc
lective service. Registration is a
necessary preliminary to the later
process of selection.
cit is useless to ask registrars to
excuse anyone from registration. The
registrar has no such powers. No
one can suspend the law requiring
all to register.
ut is important that all shall un-
derstand the significance of regis
tration, and it is hoped that the day
will be approached in the spirit with
which the government has appointed
it. Democracy is it's essence. No one
can absent himself nor can the we'll
to-do man hire another to represent
him on the occasion. The country's
manhood will present itself on this

Not only has the individual cit

Following Announcement
Concerning It.

Washington, May 1.-THE war

ing announcement regarding the
registration of citizens liable to
draft:
"The war department wishes to
impress upon the people that there
is only one day for registration. All
males between the designated ages
must register on the day set.
"The fact that five days were al
lowed for the placing of the neces-
sary blank, forms in the hands of reg
istrars appears to have misled some
headline writer's. One day only
the day fixed in the Presidents
proclamation-will be devoted to
registration.
Zone father, in offering to serve
as registrar, writes:
"I have two sons in the guard
and one in the regular army, but
want to do my little Bit This is
typical of hundreds of such letters.
All such offers properly should be
made to the governors, who are the
heads of the registration machinery
in their respective states.
cit should be clearly understood
that no male resident of the United
States between the designated ages
is excused from registration unless
