per cent greater than the estimate made
for them by the provost marshal generals

grand total expected would not be over
run to that extent as the states reporting

phia who had compile ted the work of
giving serial numbers to the registrants
within their districts, and brought the
lists To Washington IN person.

No. 40 which had 5425 registrants, and
Alfred lIeyman, secretary of local board
80, with Bias rcgiStrants, brought THE
returns to the general and explained
they had accomplished the task of fixing
the numbers to the cards by starting
one hour after registration began.
General Crowdcr then thanked the
chairman heartily, saying speed in the
task of the exemption boards was the
greatest essential now.
The first reports came from Rhode
Island Vermont, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Oregon and the District of Columbia.
The figures probably will not be made

Citizens Of Neutral
Countries To Be Exempted

Washington, June IA. = Immediate
amendment of the draft laws specific
ALLY exempting citizens of neutral
countries is necessary Senate leaders
announced today. They disclosed the
fact that serious situation has aris-
en- over the drafting of neutrals.
The war department has construed
the draft law to mean that unless a
neutral claims exemption when he reg
isterse he is not exempt afterwards.
Many neutrals have been drafted and
some have been killed. In some cases
they protested vigorously after they
had been called into the service. Some
of these protests have found their way
to their home governments The result
has been contention between this gov
ernment and certain neutrals, partic-
ularly Sweden. Preparation of an
amendment is in progress. 1t may be
a rider to the army appropriation bill.

Henry Ford VIII Run
As Senate Candidate

Detroit, Mich, June 14-Henry Ford s
announcement for the United States
senatorship in Washington last night
came as big surprise to his associates
here. While politicians have been after
Ford for some weeks past to get into
the race, it was thought he would con-
tinue to remain away from politics.
Ford's decision was the result of the
action of the democratic state confer
ence in Lansing Wednesday in extend
ing his name to the republicans as a
candidate upon whom to combine. Judge
W. F. Connolly, who headed the move
ment, had just returned from Wash
ington and it is believed it was made
at the request of government leaders.
While republicans have taken no action
on the democratic offer, Ford is re-
garded as a sure winner.
