EXEMPTION BOARD ORDERED TO
HAVE CLASS EXAMINED HY
PHYSICIANS ~ FEB I.
THOSE PASSED WILL BE
FIRST TO BE DRAFTED
Order to Discharge All Clerks But One
in Exemption Boards Office Will
Cause Delay and Confusion Local
Board Says-Board Not Halt Thru
With Classification.

Men placed in Class 1 under the new
classification for army services are to
be given physical examinations soon
The local exemption board has re-
ceived orders to have Class 1 men ex-
amined by the board of physicians by
Feb. !. But as only number suffi-
cient to make UP the rest Of the coun-
tvs quota of the first call need be ex-
amined, and thus made ready for SER
vice at this time. It Is believed the ex-
aminations can be completed by the
examining physicians in a day or two.
The county has a credit of 121 men
already sent, which requires that 1t
send only los more to Camp Dodge to
make up slightly more than As per
cent, the rest Of the quota due from the
county when the call comes.
Nothing but delay and perhaps con-
fusion will result from the order re-
ceived by the board this forenoon to
discharge at once all but one clerk in
the boards office. The board has three
clerks at work, and how it is going to
be possible for single clerk to handle
tho large amount of clerical work re-
quired to complete the classification
and compile all the data regarding each
man, the board can not understand.
The office work resulting from the
missionaries and classifcations OF
the exemption board is no more than
we'll under way: The exemption board
has not quite half completed its WORK
OF re-classification of questionnaires
returned by registered men, The pres
ent plan is to keep all Of the clerks at
least the rest OF this week and per-
haps longer until the clerical work is
further along.
