Washington, July 10
Ten million men are reg
istered in the United
States for war service
$4,000 are needed in the
first call for the national
army. Who shall go first?
This question is asked
and the method by which
ii is 10 be answered is out
lined by Provost Marshal
General Crowder in an ex-
PLANTATION issued today of
the great drawing about to
be held in Washington.
The scheme evolved is so

merals and another of II
viii AK with absolute
equality of chance the orr
der in which every one of
the 100000 registrants
shall report to his local
board for examination and
subsequent exemption, dis
charging or acceptance for
military service.
Since the average ex-
emption district registra-
ton is 5000 and there are
1857 districts, the aver
age number of men listed
with each operation of the
drawing machinery will be
about 10000.
$4,000 FIRST CALL.
General Crowder an
nouaced also, that local
boards will be instructed
10 call 200 per cent of
their quota at the first call
10 provide for probable ex-
emptions. That means
that / ,374,0OO men will be
notified TO appear for ex-
animation within the next
few days. IF more are nee
essary, they will be called
for as needed by the local
boards in the order pro-
vided for in the drawing.
MUST FILL QUOTAS.
In some districts the 100
per cent allowance for ex-
emption may be too large
and in others too small,
but the local boards will
be instructed in every case
to continue calling for
men until the district
quota is filed. Each state
governor is now allotting
to his districts their re-
spective portions of the
states quota.
In each Of the 4 .557 ex-
emption districts, among
which the 100000 reg
istration cards have been
divided, the cards have
been given serial numbers.
The number Of registrants
in each district varies
from about 1855 in the
