Miss Case refused to surrender the

ASK RULINGS
BY CROWDER
Provost Marshal General S
Office Deluged with
Messages.

The office OF the Provost Marshal
General is being deiuged daily with
letters and kilograms and personal
requests that various businesses and
Industries and occupations be de-
cIared necessary so that deferred
cIassifications can be claimed for en-
ployes. To all OF these Gen. Crow
der has turned a deaf ear.
Cant they understand that this
matter is absolutely in the hands of
the district boards he said yester-
day. II cannot and will not inter-
fere."
The district board must first under
the law. determine if a business or in
dustry is necessary and then IL the
special employe is necessary before
according him deferred classification
on occupational grounds. Gen. Crow
der so far has not ruled any business
or occupation necessary.
IIIustratIons Given.
In giving illustrations OF the
method OF claiming deferred Classi-
fiCatiOn, he has used as examples
banKers and newspapermen. but at
the same time these were used it
was said that the examples might
just as well have been butchers or
shipworkers. Ills or1ce has said
that Red Cross. Y. NJ. c. A and
knights of Columbus workers
might" claim deferred classifca-
ton on occupation grounds under
the new regulations.
In the same way steel workers,
employees of press associations. rail-
way employees or other workers
whose duties make them necessary
to the maintenance of the national
interest" may claim deferred Classi-
tiCatiOn or have il claimed for them
by their employers, and the Provost
Marshal Generals office urges that
all such as may seem to fall within
this classification make the claim
to the board. but insists that the de-
termination of the claim rests with
the district boards.
If the boards decide adversely. and
the claimant feels he was treated un-
fairly he may appeal to the Presi-
dent.
While the generals desk Is being
congested with these appeals ne IS

mite date to be fixed.

When a girl gets married, she sets

Some of the war brides I know
are having an awful time alone in
their matrimonial canoes. There's
Lucy Soarlc. who married Grant
Searle so suddenly at the farewell
dinner dance for our boys. Lucy
says this world is dull enough with
out any contribution OF gloom from
her. Why act like a devoted wife.

Martha was a lawyer stenographer
then she studied law. and she
wouldn't marry Evan until she was
admitted to the bar.
And now, that he's with the army.
she is working day and night and

money as possible. She says she is
probably quite as comfortable and
happy as Evan is and she does not
wish to be more comfortable or hap

she wants to be fixed so that he will
neither starve nor worry.
