NOT AFFECTED
Those Subject to Call Are
Only Ones to Which Work
Or Fight Rule Applies. (

Washington, July Recommending
on the new work or fight regulations
which went into effect yesterday, Pro-
vost Marshal General. Crowder en-
phasized today that the order does
not affect men outside Of draft ages.
Several communities apparently have
confused 1t with anti-loafer laws in
some states.
The only effect the order has upon
it offers them more opportunities Of
employment. Places vacated by men
liable to draft necessarily are left
open for men outside Of the draft, he
explained .1 -.
I F0fsnthe service performed by men
who leave inon-essential pursuits to
take up essential work, General
Crowder said:
'The army and navy are taking the
men who are best able physically to
do the fighting. But that is only one
part of the national task imposed by
the, war. The other part, the part
that falls on the other men. is to set
free these mek who are to do the
fighting. Every man who helps to
set free a lighting man is helping the
fight and win the war.
!" Now many of the men of draft
tage In deferred classes two, three and
A0urs deIeffed, that ls, on grounds of
dependency, are not engaged in
effective industry. The spectacle ii
not a satisfying one Of a contingent
tof drafted men from class one being
marched down the street to camp
while other men. Of their own age,
watching them from the windows, re-
main behind to sell cigarettes or dis
pense soda fountain drinks, solely be-
cause they have received deferment
on grounds OF dependency.
II these men of the same age are
to stay behind, let them at least get
into work more effective to help the
WAR. Their, deferment takes them
out. ofmilitary service and yet serves
no economic war purposes whatso-
ever. They are Of military age and
therefore have the primary duty to
do war work. II their dependency
gives. them deferment fromsimmedi-
ate military war work. let them at
least do something economically, use
full to maintain the nations welfare
while at war.
They should get into some useful
and effective occupations. or else for
felt their deferment from military
service. The alternative is a fair

guarantee Of success in winning the
