Pro- vost Marshal General Crowder drew out the last capsule, which contained number 12,734.

General Crowder stayed with the workers dur ing the entire twenty hours jeriod and the drawing was watched by a constantly changing but never large audience.
 Time of the receipt of the master lists by district boards will be gov erned by the distance they are located from Washington. Newspapers mus make their own arrangements for se- curing copies of the lists from tht boards
