EXEMPTION RULES
READY NEXT WEEK

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 20
The personnel of exemption boards for
twenty states, including those for the
states of Georgia and South Carolina,
were announced here today.
Rules governing exemptions, and
by which the exemption boards will
abide, have not yet been issued, but it
is said, these have been practically de-
termined, and will be issued without
delay, so that the work of selecting
the new national army can proceed
next week
An examination of the personnel of
the exemption boards, shows that in a
majority of cases President Wilson fol-

appointing city and county officials
wherever these could be utilized on
exemption boards.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 20
The senate agriculture committee ex-
poets to report its draft measure to-
morrow. Prospects are that the bill

final action is taken on the measure
the bill will have to be sent to con-
ference.
The subcommittee having the sub
ject of governmental control under
consideration agreed late today to ex-
tend this control to include iron, steel
and their products, petroleum and its

TRAINING CAMP
WILL COST MACON
SUM OF $4,000.

MACON, Ca, June 26.-Men of Ma
con met at the chamber of commerce
yesterday afternoon to surmount an
obstacle of $4O,Oe9 impeding their prog
ress toward an army camp site for
this city. When they assembled they
were astonished to find that the mole
hill of $4,000 had grown into noun
tain of $215,000. Undaurted, they
took up the task of removing the big
obstruction ard in less than two hours
they had succeeded 1t may, therefore,
be officially announced that Macon will
comply with every requirement of the
government in connection with the To-
cation of an army camp at Holly Bluff
and the construction of rifle range
on adjacent territory.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of raising $19,724 for immediate
payment on land rentals and securing
guarantees of another $19,724 for the
second year the leases run. 1t then
developed that the water commission
ers had ascertained that the cost of ex-
tending the water mains to the camp
site would be $4,000, and the COM
missioners were not able to produce
the funds for the extension. The COM
nlissioners proposed to make the exten-
sion if the Chamber of Commerce
would furnish the money, to be reim-
bursed through revenue derived from
the use of the water by the govern
nent.
]. A. Streyer, president of the board
of commissioners of the Chamber Of
Commerce, called the meeting to order
and asked Guy E. Payne, chairman Of
the military committee, to explain fully
the situation with regard to the camp.
Mr.. Payne detailed the steps taken by
the committee to secure the camp for
Macon. He stated that the efforts had
been successful, and it had been Off
cially announced that Macon will get
a camp, though it cannot be stated
whether it will contain $4,000, $4,000
O.. 10000 soldiers, with 5000 or 1000
civilian employees. Neither can it be
said how long the camp will last, al
though General Wood was quoted as
expressing the hope that the Macon
camp will be permanent, because of
its advantages.
