FARMERS RELEASE

Springfield. Ill.-Dozens of letters
are being received by Governor
Lowden asking him to intervene in
behalf of farmer boys who seek ex-
emptiOn on agricultural grounds.
because of the large number, the
governor has prepared a circular
letter In which he quotes the draft
law placing the possibility for
exemption with the properly ac-
credited selective draft machinery
and ends as follows:
you can readily see from the
above that I have absolutely no
power or authority in matters of
this kind. All l can do IS to bring
this matter to the attention of the
proper board for such action as that
board may deem appropriate.
You have the right also 20 call
this case to the attention Of the
board which made the classification
and TO the government appeal agent
OF your county"
The circular letters are sent by
the governor to all persons asking
him to gain exemption for them.
