| spent the year 1916 in Scandinavia
and being in contact with military men
from many nations I came to the opin-
ion that the Central Powers are very
strong, stronger than we ever dreamed
of, and that the Allies will have to
fight very hard to win the victory.
"Then Russia hit the Allied nations
a very hard blow. It had been de-
cided that the Allies should hold the
Central Powers ON the west front while
Russia held them on the eastern front
and that the two should pound Germany
until she was crushed. But the action
of Russia in giving up the fight had
improved the morale of the German
army and brought her some food and
at the same time made the task of the
Allies more difficult.
"We did not realize what this war
would cost in men, resources, mater
ial, and money, but now that we rea-
lie it we are determined to see If

EXEMPTION BOARD
APPROVES PRESENT
.ORAF 7 DECISION
All Quotas Now Based on Actual
Number of Men in Class | and Not
on PopulatiOn-Facts Now Avail
able Show No Discrimination.
By c. W. Barton.


That Imperial county Is not being
Disseminated against in the matter of
quotas sent to the cantonments, is the
opinion of c.. w. Barton, clerk Of the
local exemption board, expressed in an
interview with The Press today.
A review of the situation, said Mr..
Barton, shows that during the inter-
val from September 5, 1917, at which
time Imperial county sent her first
man, to December Is, 1917, that 653
men were furnished. The various quo
tas which comprised this total were
sent under the original draft reoula-
tions which based the several appor-
tionments on the population OF COM
munity rather than upon the actual
number OF men in Glass |.
Realizing that the Census Bureau
may have been in error when the
population of Imperial county was
placed at $4,000 plus, the local exemp-
tion board called the attention of Gov
ernor Stephens to the matter, stating
that our contingents seemed ont of
proportion as compared with River
side, San Diego and other counties.
prior to December 10, 1917, Adju-
tant General Boree," containued Mr..
Barton, "came to FL Centre and at a
conference with the local exemption
board General Boree authorized an in
depreciation of certain sections Of the
draft rules and regulations, which re-
suited in materially reducing our craft
quotas, and an adjustment entirely
satisfactory to the board.
Since December l5, 1917, all draft
quotas have been estimated upon the
actual number of men in Glass (. the
same as in every other community,
and when all exemption boards are
working on exactly the same basis.
sending all men in Glass /, there is
no possible chance for Imperial coun-
ty to sacrifice more than her share Of
men,"
In closing the interview, Mr.. Bar
ton stated that "there was an idea
prevailing to the effect that it was
more patriotic to enlist than to bs
drafted. This is decidedly wrong
opinion. The man who, through fear
of the draft, enlists in some depart.
ment of the service, TO my mind, i5
not nearly as patriotic as the man
who calmly and fearlessly waits his
turn to be called to the colors. This
was the sole intention of the federal
government in authorizing the craft.
It's the scientific and patriotic thing
to do.
"'Wait your turn; then CO."

Paris, Aug. I3.-The Allies have

in the face of stiffcning enemy 1eaist-

have won victory. The prisoners

quite young They said no reinforce

Bombing planes have virtually

The Allied offensive has come
to d lull for the reason that tie
men are weary from furious fight
ing, having carried their line to
great depth, and also because of
the greater resisting power of the
Germans, who have brought up
reinfOrcements and guns.
PerOnne is reported to be in

in the rear of the German lines,
indicating their further retreat.
They are putting up stiff rear
