Local Boards


 In every county in the United States and for every city over 30,000 there are one or more local exemption boards. Each of such boards is in charge of the registration cards of persons registered in the area over which the board has jurisdiction, and has jurisdiction of all claims for ex- emption except those based on indus trial grounds. Find out what board has your card and where the office of that board is.
 District Boards
 In every Federal judicial district there are one or more district boards having appellate jurisdiction over a number of local boards and having original jurisdiction of claims for ex- emption on industrial grounds. If you intend to make a claim on industrial grounds, including agriculture, learn what district board to apply to.
 Red Ink Serial Numbers
 Every board has numbered the cards in it's jurisdiction with red ink in series running from 1 to the number representing the total number of cards in its jurisdiction. Lists showing the number of persons in the jurisdiction of each board and the red ink number of each card are open to inspection at the office of each board.
 Inspect the list and inform yourself of your red ink serial number.
 Order of Liability
 These red ink number are to be drawn by lot to determine the order in which registered persons are to be called by the various local boards. As soon as the drawing is complete lists showing the order in which these red ink numbers are drawn will be pub lished in the press, and will be posted at the office of each local board.
 Go to your local board and find out the order in which you stand for call.
 Call for Examination
 AS soon as quotas are assigned to each State and each board, will call upon persons whose cards are in it's jurisdiction instructing them 10 present themselves for examination. This call will be posted at the office of the local board and the papers will be requested to print it. A notice will also be mailed to you, but the posting of the list at the office of the board will be deemed sufficient notice to charge you with the duty of present. ing yourself. The law therefore makes it your duty to inform yourself when you are called. The mailing is for your convenience, but if the letter never reaches you, you can not make that an excuse. .p
 Watch the lists at the office of your board and see when you are called for examination

RENTAL PRICES IN CITY
HIGHER BY 10 PER CENT
Affect Houses and Apartments Rang
ing From $40 to SIS, Com
mittee Reports.

There has been an average increase
of approximately 10 per cent in the
rental prices of all houses and apart
ments in Washington renting for from
$50 to SIS month.
This is one Of the conclusions
reached by the housing committee Of
the District Council OF Defense, which
will report next week to the District
council and consider what further stems
are to be taken to meet the housing
problem.
DR.. R. S. Woodward, chairman Of the
housing committee, declined to give
full details of the report in advance OF
its presentation to the council
He urged that sensational statements
in regard to the situation be avoided
and said there has been a tendency to
exaggerate the house and apartment
shortage. Recent conferences with Of
ficials Of the Y. NJ. c. A. and the Y w.
c. A. have led to the conclusion that
while ii is difficult for unmarried per-
sons to flnd accommodations here, ir
is not impossible to do so.
In August there were approximately
5000 vacant houses in Washington, is
was stated. though It is not believed
all these were in babitab1e condition
then. There are believed to be fewer
than that number now.

Food Mobilization Plan
Sent to Wilson from Roma

Rome. March 2i.-The United States
must devote itself TO increased agri-
cultural production. in the opinion Of
David Lubin. the American representa-
tive in the international Institute OF
Agriculture here. Mr.. Lubin has sent
to President Wilson plan for food
mobilization in case of war, based on
the experience of Europe and aiming
10 obtain a greater agricultural effort
in view of the worlds shortage of food
and also to prevent food speculation.
Mr.. Lubin said:
"The first and necessary thing is to
plant potatoes, turnips. carrots and
corn on farms and also on every avail
able city lot. The same measures
should be taken for animal food and
for industrial agricultural products
such rs cotton. If America goes TO war
now il must understand that the wal
will last perhaps two years longer
Gcrmany's agricultural mobilization
has kept her alive and fighting. A sys-
tenn of food distribution through the
parcel post is desirable in order t.
avoid high prices and the activities OF
SPECTATORS. Congress also should
adopt Senator Sheppard's bill to solve
the food problem"
