|. General revision Of classifications un-
o der the selective service act has been
a started by General Crowder, when ne
o telegraphed the governors OF all states,
s ordering investigations to determine
o the reason for the small number OF
a registrants In Glass / OF some locah-
II ties.
The list of some boards show an
l average far below the national average
of 2s.7 per cent of registrants in Glass
. IL. Some boards have fallen as low
~ as 10 per cent. Thousands now In
ss Glass should be placed In Glasses i
of and 2, the provost marsnal SAID.
=. "a Instructions were also ordered for
~ ~ investigations to determine If any had
- been enormously placed in upper
classes when they should have been
placed lower down.
1t is expected the rearrangements
u will bring into Glass ! more than q
III half million men. Cases where regis
IS trants were married after passage OF
TO the draft act will be carefully con-
lst sidered, and if the evidence warrants
as classification in Glass 1 the boards VIII
10 proceed to reclassify them. Married
'le men whose wives have sustaining In
Ia, u comes probably will be reclassified.
nu General Crowder announced the class
oil of 1913 regiStrantS VIII not De III
lowed to enlist I'm the navy or marine
corps, and no voluntary inductions viii
be granted until order and serial mum
