Local Boards To Receive New Gov

A1tho today was the day designated
by the government on which the rec
ords and files of the various local
draft boards were to be CLOSED up and
sealed, later orders came cancelling
the previous instructions. 1t is be-
lievod that the government has in
mind other reports to be made up
from the records in the hands of these
boards. altho as yet no information
has been received as to what fea-
lures the new instructions may cover
1t is also possible that very few of
the local boards have completed the
work necessary to close up their rec
ords and that there is a small per
cent of work that has hung over for
completion. 1t will probably take sew

may develop after the new orders are
