CROWDER STUDIED YEARS
ON PROBLEMS OF DRAFT

WASHINGTON, July l3.-When the
call came to Provost Marshal General
Enoch Crowder to handle Uncle Sans
big selectiye draft, he was ready be
cause he had spent his entire army
career in preparation.
Representative Greene OF Vermont,
who, as member OF the house military
affairs committee. has come into init
mate contact with General Crowder.
tells how the latter spent a lifetime
studying for the big job he now holds.
When General Crowder was a
Junior lieutenant at an obscure army
post in Texas he CHANGED upon a copy
of the old civil war draft regulations,
Greene said.
"He read them over, first out of
curiosity Then he began to think
how those rules could have been made
more just and equitable
"Gradually he evolved his ideas of
now uTdlt SnDulu De run, ana WITH
the idea came the conviction that
some day in this country there would
be the need Of a great army, and that
this army would be raised, not from
volunteers. but by process of selec-
ton from the total man power of the
country.
"MeanWhilc CrOwdor was advancing
in the army step by step.
when the United States entered
the war General Crowder was the one
man in the army who was ready to go
before congress with a concrete sug.
gestion for the framing of selective
draft law

campaign for a fund of $2O0OO,O 900.
The campaign, while officially ended,
is still getting belated results 1t has
netted not only the $2O,0O0,oO0 asked
for, but substantial amount besides.
The fund, through the agency of
various benevolent societies, will be
spent in ministering to the wants of
soldiers and sailors, who are engaged
in actual warfare, and for the relief
OF the many women and children in
foreign countries, who have been made
to feel the bitter sting of the IL
tanic conflict.
The government provides its fight
ing forces with uniforms, munitions
and other necessities for warfare. but
the little extras" must be bought by
funds subscribed by individuals. That
was the purpose of the War Chest cam

the fund will be devoted. Through

Bismarck, N. D.. Oct. 18.-Regis-
trants who withdraw their declara-
ton Of intention to become citizens
in order to avail themselves of the
privilege accorded neutral aliens Of
not serving in the American army
cannot. as the time for the close Of
the war appears to be drawing near,
regret their former acts and have
restored to them their standing as
prospective citizens of the country
which they forsook in the hour of its
need, advises Adjutant General Fra
ser in a letter to the Walsh county
local draft board.
The secretary OF this board wrote
in behalf Of a young registrant who
had withdrawn his declaration of
intention in order to escape induc-
ton into the army and who later
regretted" his act. General Fraser
suggests that this young man prob
ably will continue to regret his act
for the remainder of his life, but
that no remedy for the situation in
which he has placed himself lies in
regret. He is out and he will stay
out. There can be no restoration of
citizenship rights in a case OF this
kind, which is clearly covered by the
selective service regulations, says
the adjutant general.

Breyjng Must
Cease On Dec. I
(By AssocLatel Presg. )

Washington, Oct. 18.-Not even the
so-caIed Kreuzen or new beer for
carbonizing old beer can be brewed
after Dec. l, under a ruling an
nounced today by Food Administrat-
or Hoover and Fuel Administrator
Garfield. Brewers had asked that
they be allowed to brew new beer for
the purpose after the date fixed by
the President for all brewing to
cease.
If necessary to use up the malt and
other material now on hand, brewers
may use as much OF the fuel aIlot-
ment as they choose between now
and Dec. l, it was announced. How
ever for the purpose Of refrigeration
after Dec. l, it is considered that the
allotment of fuel under the order OF
last July 8, is sufficient, and it will
be necessary for the brewers to save
sufficient coal out Of their allowance
for refrigerating purposes.
