N APPEAL 70 I'LL TO
AID THE GOVERNMENT

The president has designated June
9Th as registration day We feel
that every loyal citizen realizes the
necessity for q full registration and
that d duty rests upon US all to as
sist toward that end
1t Is assumed that the local ma
ehincrs for registration is arranged.
and that the registration officials
understand their duties, but 1t
might be wise for the local officials
to make a final check In order to
be sure that no point II overlooked.
While the great majority of our
citizens are thoroughly informet.
that those who are u or over. and
not 5 years oil age on that day are
required to register, Ii is probable
that considerable number scatter
ed over the state and particularly
among cur negro population. DO not
understand the law, and the penalty
for not registering. In justice to
them We urge every citizen 60 give
all possible publicity to the require
ments of the law
But OF even higher Importance Is
the necessity that the people OF Texas
be brought TO realize and know that
not alone the young men on that day
must register for military service.
