Determination of Fit
ness Not Left to
One Man
By WEBR c. MILLER.

tSt0H Correspondent: United Press.
WASHINGTON. June 1.-THE
first actual step toward formation OF
boards which will consider exemp-
tions from service In the new ma
tional armies raised by conscription,
was taken today when plan for ex-
empton of those physically unfit
was submitted TO President Wilson
by a special board of lawyers, jur-
lists and military authorities
The plan provides that each local
exemption board will have as one
member a physician who will give
the first test When he rejects a
man, the other board members must
summon another physician who will
make an examination. not knowing
the first doctors decision. II the
decisions are the same the man Is
declared unfit
The regular physician member Of
the exemption board will probably
be the county or city surgeon. ac-
cording 10 the plan In cases Of
doubt the board may summon sew
eral doctors one after another to
submit a diagnosis. The man that Is
rejected or refused rejection may
appeal 20 the appellate court Of the
district for another test.
President Wilson is today consid-
ering the vital exemption regulations
as submitted by the special board
This body has been working on the
regulations for weeks.
Within a few days announcement
OF the rules for the guidance OF ex.
emption boards is expected
Altho II is definitely decided that
there will be no wholesale class eI
emptions, most OF the regulations
are yet 20 be settled upon

fairs committee today.
Daniels charges developed when
Senator F'relinghuysen. New Jersey,
presented copies OF confidential re-
ports bearing on ordnance. which he
said had been sent him in an anon
ymous letter. The reports were de-
signed TO substantiate charges OF
laxity which resulted In the acci-
dents aboard the American liners

ammunition, stolen from the files
of the department have proved un-
avaiIing, II was declared.
The writer supplemented his re-
ports. Frel1nghuysen said, with
grave charges as To detective ann
munition. etc.
Daniels declared that the revela-
tion plainly showed a SPY or
traitor" must be at work somewhere
in the naval estabhshment and that
he should DO apprehended and sent
to the peniteutiary.
Frenngnryeen hastened 20 a.

deavoring TO get information from
spies or traitors. that ne had made
every effort to establish The idso-
uty OF the author OF the letter and
that III thers Is a spy IN the navy

hended and dealt with accordingly
