FIRST DRAFT CLASS
BEING EXHAUSTED;
NEW CALL LIKELY

There is a possibility of exhaustion
OF draft Class I, before Congress
finally can act TO extend draft ages.
Some States have wired to Provost
Marshal General Crowder that they
are on the verge OF drawing Lheir
last men OF the hrst class.
To rescue the situation 20 that u
I deferred classes further, Il is likely
that a call for men who have turned
twenty-one will. be issued before
January 1. 1919. That, however, may
not prevent invasion OF the second
class, unless Congress acts hastily
upon extension OF draft ages when 1t
reconvenes at the end OF August.
It is predicted that by Labor Day.
the last Of the nghting men now in
Glass ! viii have been called.
Meantime, the War Department Is
working on its program for extend
ing the draft age limits.
Chairman Dent, Of the House Mill
tary Committee, predicts that there
will be a Tight in Congress IL there
Is too radical a sweep downward

day that the House will probably

nearly exhausted, and that, even with
the new twenty-one-year- olds, there
will be early exhaustion
Critical of Baker.
There Is some tendency TO complain
because Secretary Baker deferred ac-
tion on the draft until Congress COM
pletes its recess. Leaders say that
had he favored draft extension earlier.
the possibilities OF the present situa-
ton would have been avoided.
The need for men In the army is
illustrated by the order to close down
on navy and marine enlistments from
the draft for. the next two months.
Navy and marine corps officials are
disposed to be critical Of this de-
cision, though they incline to think
that their requirements can be met
