Washington.-As result of the
drawing held here on June 27, the
young men of the nation who have
attained their majority in the year
ended last June were selected for SER
vice.
Historic events of a little less than
year ago were repeated as from a
large glass bowl in a committee room
of the senate office building were
drawn the numbers representing 744,-
800 youths, the majority of whom
within a few months will be en-
rolled in the forces fighting for de-
mocracy and agYinst Prussianism.
Secretary Baker, members of the
senate and house military commit
tees, and other high government Of
| ficials witnessed the drawing by
blindfolded men of the little capsules
| from the bowl, each Of the capsules
containing master number" to be
applied in the $500 registration dis
tricts of the country, according to the
total registration.
The drawing was to determine
only the relative summoning to the
colors of the new registrants as final
ly classified by the local boards un-
der the QUESTIONABLE system. All of
the youths whose numbers were
drawn will be assigned to the various
five classes on the basis of informa-
ton furnished in the questionnaires
now being mailed out. The new regis
trants will be placed at the foot Of
the list in each case In their re-
spective districts in the order in which
their numbers were drawn. In that
respect only will the drawing affect
the registrants.
Statements made recently by Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder and
Secretary Baker indicate that all of
the new registrants placed In class 1
will be called before the end of the
year. Accordingly, not more than a
few months will elapse at the most
between the calling of men in class
whose numbers are among those
drawn first and those whose numbers
the bowl.
The master numbers" drawn June
~ apply to the numbers on the
registration cards of the registrants.
In the drawing of a year ago serial
numbers were assigned, but this was
deemed unnecessary in the present
drawing because of the f6ker regis
trants and of the less Importance at
tached to the order in which the
numbers are drawn.
The draft numbers were drawn In
