ONE-THIRD HERE
ASK exemption

More than one-third of the Ia
comans drafted under the first call
have already signified their inten-
ton of claiming exemption.
This was the report from all ex-
emption boards In the city Mon
day, where final arrangements
we're being made to begin the
draft examinations Tuesday.
Large numbers of young men
have appeared at the various ex-
emption goard headquarters to ap-
ply for blanks on which they can
fill out their claims. These writ
ten claims must be filed with the
boards by Thursday night.
Examinations to Begin.
All of these men must appear
on Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday for their physical exam
nations.
If they pass the physical exam
ination and do not present their
claim for exemption by Thursday
evening, they will be automatical-
ly certified into the U. S. army.
Those who ask for exemption
will have 10 days, after Thursday,
to appear before the board and
prove their reasons for asking ex-
Japs May Get In.
All boards announced Monday
that they were ready to begin the
physical examinations.
A new ruling regarding aliens,

Monday. By this ruling any alien
except an enemy alien, will be
certified to the army unless he
claims exemption on the grounds
that he is not a citizen.

when the Red Cross Tacoma

500 coast artillery boys of Tacoma
are encamped in their first federal
quarters.
The fellows have made them
selves thoroly at home in the large
squad tents.
Most of them, on arrival, went
thru their first experience at bed
making, at least in the military
fashion prescribed by the army
technique.
May Buy Extras"
The mess tent has been a won
derfully popular institutions; no.
body has lost any appetite. Cooks
Linn Alger and Robert Kelly are
doing noble.
The fellows are planning to set
aside so much month, probably
a dollar, for extras" for at least
one meal a day.
The men are rapidly getting
equipment including blue denims,
the work uniforms.
Mai. Ellison's headquarters tent
is across the road from 4th COM
pany, with the officers tents of
4th and 10th companies along
side his.
Ed Schwarz and Arthur Gillbo,
south end boys, have made a spe-

Donald Brothers, Lincoln Hi
athlete and university freshman,
is acting corporal in charge of one
of the squads. He is the most
tickled man in 4th company to be

Oliver DeLoria and Andrew

until Ed Benthier, who has been
on the sick list, is able to take

JACKPOT
FAILING

Lumbermen who still are sit
ting in on the jackpot against the
eight-hour day have fallen out
among themselves, according to
word brought to Tacoma Monday
by Charles Perry Taylor, secre-
tary of the State Federation of
Labor. The jackpot shows signs
.-Of splitting, he said.
Taylor said some preliminary
conferences have been arranged
and that the employers who have
refused to meet with the timber
workers to bring about a settle
ment of the strike will be forced
to recede from their position soon.
"Union officials and federal
mediators already have got
few of the lumbermen to
agree to conferences, and
President Marsh of the State
Federation of Labor reports
that good progress is being
made" said Taylor.
The call issued by the Tacoma
timberworkers' union for loggers
to work in union camps on the
eight-hour day basis brought
more than a score of men at union
headquarters Monday.
They will be sent to Dieringer
to the camps of the Danaher Lum-
: Der Co. of Tacoma, which has
