DRAFT DRAWING WILL Be
ON THURSDAY OR FRIDAY
Order Numbers Of 744,S65 Men Enroll.
ed June 5lh To Be Determined.
Warrington, June "a.

W aiming lNiis JuliN -
4 second national lottery TO deter
mine the order numers of the 744,-
S65 men enrolled last June ; under
the selectivo service law win be held
here this week. The date has not
beea definitely determined, but the
drawing probably will be on Thurs
day or Friday, depending upon the
time tue nnal complete reports are
received from the district boards.
The procedure to be followed, it
WAS stated officially today, win be
similar to that Of last year, when
nearly 100000 mon were given
the relative places in the draft, The
same bowl win be used with capsules
containing numbers up to the largest
number Of ryg,straut5 in any district
In he country, Las, year lO,500
CAPSULES were provided, bat the rum
b.r this year win be much smaller,
and :, is expected that III, drawing
will be completed much more quick
Is.
The lottery system is based on the
selection Of master numbers, each Of
hich governs similar numbers in
every one of the 4,500 local districts
over the country, Under the system
Of classifying registrants adopted
since the first drawing last year,
however, it would not necessarily
follow that the men holding the first
number drawn would be the first
called for service. Distribution Of
the QUESTIONABLE blanks from which
will be determined the class into
which each man will go was begun
to-day and when the new registrants
fill these out and return them, the
numbers assigned them in the lottery
will then become operative to deter
mine their relative liability at the
footof tn class in which they are
placed.
