Garry Your Card
Those Who Did Not Register
Must Pay Penalty.

Every young man in Maryland, subject
to the military registration, and who has
not registered, is now subject to arrest.
and it is likely that large number of
them will be arrested.
Adjutant General Warfield on Monday
received orders from the provost mar
shall general, directing that vigorous
enforcement" of the penal clause of the.
registration act be begun at once.
Accordingly, General Warfeld immed-
lately sent out orders to the mayors of
all county towns, to the Baltimore city
police officials, Department Of Justice
authorities. Mayor Preston, sheriffs off
all counties, etc., to proceed accordingly
without delay. He asked that EVERY
effort be made now to detect and arrest
persons subject to registration who ha {
not yet registered and to bring each cas-
promptly to the attention of the neare s.
representative of the Department Of j. ls
tice."
The young man who registered hi.
name for military service, but who doe.
not carry his registration card witt him
subjects himself to the danger Of being
arrested until he can produce. the card.
Showing the card to any official who
asks for it will automatically put away
any danger of arrest.
To avoid embarrassment to citizens
and trouble to the government, the au-
thorities ask that everyone carry his
card in his pocket.
A young man may easily get into
trouble going into saloons asking for q
drink and misrepresetting his age. If
he carries no card he will be at once
accused of being a Stacker and liable to
arrest. Of course much depends on the
bartender.
The penalty for not registering is one
year in prison, and enforced registration.
