Crowder Says.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 3.-Provost
Marshal General Crowder, reporting to
congress today on the progress of the
draft, expresses for the first time q
definite policy and aim of the govern
ment not to take for army duty any
men other than those listed in class /
of the new draft QUESTIONABLE.
This classification entirely excludes
married men whose wives or families
are dependent on them for support and
other men with dependents.
General Crowder does this on the
estimate that 100000 men physically
fit for army duty will be available for
class /. This number. he thinks, suf-
ficient for the present military needs
of the national army, but to assure
the future supply for those needs he
recommends that men who have be-
come 21 years Of age since June =.
1917, the date of the first draft, and
who become Of age hereafter, shall be
added to class as they become avail
able. This will insure. the general
