Paid Part of Insurance

Private Joseph Davis, of Florence
N. j., was reported by the War Depart

boy was alive.
Yesterday letter dated August II
was received by his mother from the
young soldier. In it he said he was
"having the time of his life" He told
her he had been wounded, but that he
had recovered, and was at that time
back with his command.
No more unusual case of mistaken
identity has come to light since the
casualty lists began 10 arrive from
France, the government even having
made its first payment on the war risk

Captain Charles Davis Morgan, of 35
West Twelfth Street. who has been an

DR. aft Registrants
Will Be Permitted
To Join ank Corps
Recruiting Offices Soon to
Open i'm Several Large
Cities
By Theodore M. Knappen

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.--Having re-
ceived assurances that formal order
will be issued within a few days per-
mitting the induction of registrants
under the new draft into the tank
corps, the recruiting officers of that
corps have dispatched officers to open
or reopen recruiting Offices in New
York Cat 10 West Forty-fourth Street,,
Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Chicago,
Kansas City, Dallas, Denver, Seattle
and San Francisco.
These offices will Immediately re-
ceive application for induction from
the draft without waiting for registra-
tlon and the issuance of registration
cards. Formal induction into the SER
vice will not be possible until about
September 20.
For more than month now the ex-
pansion of the tank corps has been
prevented because men beyond thirty
one and under twenty one could not
volunteer, and about all the available
men in Glasses 2, 3 and of the pres
ent draft had already been combed out
in the previous tank drive.
Men who have not previously con-
sidered the tanks arc urged to con-
slider the attractions of the new "treat
EN- TOuSn service. On account OF Its
rapid expansion and the extensive
technical experience required the tank
corps is represented as presenting un-
usual opportunities for both privates
and officers.
The tank corps seeks the cream of
the physical and mental ability of the
country. 1t desires only men of power
full physique, steady nerve, exceptional
intelligence and good education, though
the latter need not be formal and may
have been acquired in the shop or on
the road as we'll as in school or college
corps desires skilled all-round me-
chanics, automotive mechanics, gas en-
gineers, tractor drivers, machinists,
bench and lathe hands, etc. and for the
fighting epartment-artilleri ma.
chine gunners, etc.--it seeks college.
business and professional men.
AS all tank officers will be drawn
from the ranks. it is hoped that every
man who enlsts for the tightinz.
division will have the natural and edu-
cational qualifications of an officer. All
such will be given an opportunity to
take a course at an officers training
school.
Louis j. Horowitz, formerly presi
dent of the Thompson-Starrett Con
struction Company, of New York, was
to-day appointed special assistant to
Major General c. c. Williams, chief of
ordnance, in charge of tanks
General Williams also enlarged the
duties of Brigadier General John T.
Thompson, now director of arsenals and
advisory engineer, to include direction
of all ordnance training

Rent Administrator Sought

The Greater New York Tenants
League sent its second protest against
high rents to President Wilson yester-
day, again asking him to appoint a
Federal rent administrator. The mes
sage said. in part
"The New York State law is entirely
inadequate to meet the situation in 50
Tar that no check is placed upon the
landlords in the amount of rentals they
may charge.
The situation has become unbear-
able and the tenants are practically at
the poin' Of rebellion against the land
lords. l. has been suggested that in
view OF the fact that you have ap-
pointed food and fuel administrators
you will also. in the interest of our
people, appoint rent administrator,
who, in turn, will appoint subordinates
IN the various states. This rent ad
mlnlstrator could make rules and regu-
!ations governing rentals during the
period of the war."

Draft Likely to
Deplete Teaching
Staff of Schools

The new draft and the possibility of
an adverse ruling by the War Indus
tries Board prohibiting the erection Of
new schools might produce an unprec-
edented crisis in the New York school
system. according to Dr.. William l.. Eft
finger, Superintendent of Schools. in a
statement yesterday.
DIR. Ettinger declared that vast ma
Jority of the men school teachers are
within the new draft age limits, many
of them without families and subject to
immediate call. This, together with the
loss of hundreds Of teachers who have
entered better paying war work, will
seriously deplete the teaching ranks,
he said.
DR.. Ettinger also announced that he
had applied to the War Department to
delay the removal Of vocational school
teachers who are expert mechanics
with special ability to impart mechan-
ical knowledge to their pupils. Few of
he added. He has recommended that
the instructors be inducted into SER
vice and be reassigned to their teach
ing berths, as the nation needs young
men of technical training more than
ever at this time. If actually required
for government work elsewhere, they
could be taken away later, he added
The first days registration figures
indicate that the increase in the num-
Der of pupils will be normal. DR.. Et-
Anger said. Certain enlargements must
be made to avoid widespread double
session work.
"a ruling by the Priorities Board
cutting off the additions to schools and
the pursuance Of 'our building pro-
gramme will precipitate a precarious
situation" Dr. Ettinger said
Four new schools will open on Mon
day. The new Evander Childs High
School, in The Bronx, will put an end
to the series Of annexes which house
the students at present The new Man
haitian Trade School will be opened,
while large additions to Public School
l6. in Brooklyn, and Public School As,
The Bronx, complete the roster of new
Accommodations.
Mayor Hylan yesterday made an ap-
peal 20 Bernard Baruch, chairman of
the Priorities Committee of the War
Industries Board to release the re-
ouired material to enable the Board of
Education to proceed with the building
of elementary schools here. The Mayor
pointed out that the city did not in
tend to construct schools of any other
cnaIdC liidil elementary ScnOOlS dur
ing the war His letter follows:
II regret to be obliged to appeal to
you in the matter of the construction
of new elementary school buildings in
the City of New York. 1t viii be a
grave mistake for your board not to
release materials sufficient to con-
struct the needed schools. can as
sure you that we do not intend to con
struct new high schools or schools of
any character except for elementary
education until the war is over. The
people of New York are doing their
part in aiding the government in its
great war work, and we hope that your
board will recognize the necessity for
releasing the material to enable the
Board of Education to proceed with the
buildings necessary for giving our
children the required elementary
schooling"

Secretary Baker Orders
Them Replaced by
December 81
Dependents Urged to
Claim Exemptions
Employers Also Asked to
Act Wherever 1t Is
Necessary

WASHINGTON. Sept. 6.-Secretary
Baker has ordered the chief of each
bureau in the War Department to re-
place by December 81 all men within
draft ages who would be classified in
Glass /, now assigned to duty in Wash
ington or in War Department branches
elsewhere, with men physically dis
qualified for general military service.
The positions thus vacated may also
be filled by men in the deferred classes
where such deferment has been granted
on the grounds of dependency. Excep-
tions are to be made only where in
cumbents are Indispensable, and where
men not within the draft age are not
available to take their places.
The chiefs of bureaus are instructed
to report to the adjutant general on
December 81 the number and names of
all men within the draft age then en-
ployed in their bureaus and to furnish
a certificate that each of these is in
dispensable. and that others not within
the draft age are not available to re-
place them.
Boards To Be Enlarged
AS further step to speeding up the
draft organizations in the effort to OBJ
tain for induction into military service
in October men from the new registra-
tion next Thursday, Provost Marshal
Crowder is planning enlargement of
the local and district boards wherever
necessary.
Announcement was made to-day that
General Crowder had telegraphed draft
executives in all states asking if an in
crease in the size of the boards would
hasten their operation. Boards already
have been authorized to use additional
registrars on September 10.
Because many men of the new draft
service ages are expected to refuse to
claim exemption from military service,
regardless Of the need for them at
home, the provost marshal general S
or interested dependents should not
fail to file formal claims in such cases.
Exemption Claim Left Open
the questionable purposely leaves the
exemption claim open to be filed by
others than the registrant himself.
General Crowder's staff feels that fail
ure to present legitimate exemption
claims for sentimental reasons will al
most certainly work hardship and in
Justice, especially since the local boards
are now being asked to conduct classi-
fication at top speed. General failure
to have such claims filed. it is said,
also will serve to slow up the work.
New regulations to govern exemption
under the occupational section of the
law have been published in special
amphlet form to aid boards and regis
trants in providing the wider applica-
ton.
In conference to-day Colonel War
rem, Of the provost marshal generals
staff; Felix Frankfurter, chairman of
the War Labor Policies Board, and a
representative of the Department of
Agriculture, took up in detail the
method Of obtaining the trio of occupa-
tional advisers who will serve with
each of the 100 odd district draft
boards in canvassing the occupational
eXemption claims.
