WASHINGTON, July IA lot Of
men will be excused from selective
army service who are not included in
the exemptions covered by the rules
Just announced. No rules will be an.
nounced for these exemptions. They
will come under policies to be com.
municated to the exemption boards
by the authorities in Washington.
The farm worker must not be ia.
ken from his plow, the munitions
worker from the munitions plant, the
machanic from the tractor factory, the
coal miner from his coal mine, the
textile blanket maker from the blanket
factory, the shoemaker from his shoe
machine, and so on through the list
of industrial activities necessary to a
successful on-going Of the war.
This has been the idea justifying
selectlve service as against the vol.
unteer army system, yet none Of these
classes are covered by the so.called
class exemptions. The rules given out
provide that the mayor Of your city,
your police force, your judges and
your ministers and priests and your
Quakers are excused from military
service. This class excuse is also ex-
tended to the husband and father Of
q dependent family, whose income Is
derived from his work of brain or
hand; the son of a dependent widow,
the son Of aged. infirm and dependent
parents, the brother of dependent
children under 16 years of age.

be done by rules. The war depart
ment is going to try to get some hui

| eral rulings OF issuing blanket instruc'
lions. The most valuable work Of the
exemption boards is to be in the ap'
plication of ordinary common sense
to every set of facts brought before
them. There are a million cases that
cannot be covered by rules.
For instance, in the coal fields Of
West Virginia are 5000 coal miners
on the registration lists. Everyone
Of those 5000 ought to be excused from
military service and permitted to 60
on mining coal.
Secretary of War Baker knows this
and would admit it, but probably will
not make any hard and fast rule that
coal miners must be exempted.
This is to permit some local exemp'
ton board to send to the trenches
some young chap whmo is nominally
miner but who is living on the wages
of his parents and hanging around the
saloon and pool room,
The exemption boards will find 1t
easy to send young lawyers, surplus
newspaper reporters, insurance az
ents, book agents, barkeepers, den
lists, doctors, husky young bank clerks
and particularly the promising and
unoccupied sons Of the rich.
In case any man thinks he has been
unjustly treated in not being excused,
he can take his appeal to the district
appeal board. On the other hand II
some young chap who is nominally
to 20 into the service is excused as
a result of political influence, the de-
partment has ordered the Judge ad'
vocate general to take up such cases
with the appellate board and see
