100000 is FIGURE SET
AS PROBABLE IN CLASS I

On the basis OF actual figures from
insurance companies, census compu-
tatlons and theexperience Of this Of
flee in the previous registration, It
has been estimated that the required
number of men for class one may be
had only by including within the
draft age limits men between 80 and
As and between IS and 20. That Is to
say, approximately 100000 men
must be added to the list of regis
trants in order that, with all exemp.
lions allowed at least 100000 men
will remain in class one.
