Hundreds of men, some of whom had

see motion pictures while they waited
for their numbers to be called.
In many Brooklyn districts it was
remarked that the proportion of men
above the age of thirty-two to the mon
below the age of twenty-one was about
two to one. In the outlying sections
of the borough bordering on Queens,
where the proportion of citizens of

Net Out Soon for
New Draft Dodgers

WASHINGTON, Sept. IA ma
tionwide effort to round up men who
failed to register for the draft to-
day will be started Immediately by
specially organized corps of Depart
ment of Justice agents. This corps,
it was learned to-day, has been in
process of organization for some
time, and will work quietly, without
making general raids like those in
New York which caused adverse criti-
cism.
Methods have been developed for
gathering information from hundreds
of sources on men within the new
draft ages who failed to respond, and
this will be used to prevent evasion.
Many volunteer members of the
American Protective League, citi-
zens' organization, are understood to
have enlisted in the new campaign
against draft dodgers, and the sys-
tenn is said to be SO thorough that it
virtually will be impossible for slack
ers to evade arrest.

"Work or Fight
Order Not Binding
On All Industries

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-Provost
Marshal General Crowder announced
tonight that the "work or fight" order
now being enforced by district boards
would not affect all industries failing
to obtain place on the preference list
recently established by the War Indus
tries Board. An erroneous impression
was current, he said, that the list of
five productive occupations in
which men Of draft age cannot be en-
ployed if they wish to retain deferred
classification had been enlarged to in
clude all industries which the prefer
ence list omitted.
This idea," General Crowder said,
calls for prompt reputation. The
non-productive list of five classified
occupations has not been enlarged, and
1T will not be enlarged without the
amplest and most explicit notice. Sc
lective service boards are expressly di-
rected, until further notice, to bring
no occupation under the work or fight
order except those expressly listed"

Increase in Subway
Trains Again Put Off

At the request of the Interborough
Rapid Transit Company the Public Ser
vice Commission yesterday postponed
the hearing CT the recent order to the
company calling for better headway of
trains and more cars on the new "H"
subway system until next Tuesday.
James L. Quackenbush, counsel for the
lrterborough, appeared at the sched-
ulcd hearing yesterday and asked for
mere time in which to determine
whether the company would accede to
the commissions order.
The order of the commission re-
Quires a two-ninutc headway in the
express service and three-minute
Roadway in the local service in the
rush hours on the new Seventh Avenue
and Lexington Avenue subways. and
also that the company file train sched

lines
The commission has directed a 33
per cent increase in the non-rush hour
service in the Broadway subway of the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company in
Manhattan. The increased service was
installed yesterday, following a con-
ference between Commissioner F. J. H.
kracke and John J. Dempsey, general
manager of the B. r. T. lines. The
company has been operating fifteen
trains an hour in nonrush hours. The
new service calls for twenty trains
an hour. or a hree-minute headway.

Underground Press" Busy
in Attempt to Impede

Anarchists and I. W. ". agitators
celebrated registration day yesterday
by using the mails to distribute anti
war propaganda circulars 1t was dis
covered that copies of circular which
were addressed to- Workers of Amer
ica" and which denounced the war as
"hypocrisy' had been sent broadcast.
Federal authorities who examined
the circular said they believed hun
dredS of thousands of copies had been
mailed to prospective registrants with
view of inducing them not to regis
ter.
For weeks government agents have
been on the trail of what is known as
the underground press,' which began
to be active soon after Emma Goldman
and Alexander Berkman were sent to
prison. These anarchist leaders had
predicted that their propaganda would
be kept up in spite of the authorities.
Here is the latest product of the
underground press:
1T is time you understood the con-
ditions under which you live The
ions Of lives. crushing the hopes of
miMicns OF workers and shedding
rivers of human blood. We are told
it IS to free the seas, to crush mill
tarism. TO make the world safe for
democracy. Workers, is it not time
ysu grew wise TO this awful hypocrisy? :?
Is il not clear to you that every smooth
phrase is followed by stab in the
back? What about the Sedition Law?
.he Consumption Law, the imprisone-
ment of hundreds of rebels? What about
the Russian Revolution, the only ray
of light on the horison of darkness
The mlitarism of democratic America
is using its ruthless heel to crush this
light.
IN Russia, we witness birth of a
New Dawn. After years of unspeak-
able suffering. the workers of Russia
haXe given birth to an infant Republic
Are we going to stand idly by and see
this infant destroyed?
We have reached a stage in this
country when the workers cannot
speak. cannot assemble, or enjoy the
fundamental rights guaranteed by the
Amtricar Constitution. We will NOT
surrender our rights of speech and
life. We are compelled to adopt under
ground methods of communication;
This is inevitable in a country which
chains the human mind. The govern
ment has shown its teeth in arresting
and abusing seven of our brothers for
distributing circulars against Russian
intervention. A despotic government
invariably groves inefficient and in this
case IS prosecuting workers innocent
Of the charge against them. We are
free men, We chalange the despot to
crush our spirit"

WASHINGTON. Sept. 12.-Until the
President specifically forbids them,
Stacker raids in various cities will be
continued by the Department of Jus
tice, it was declared to-day. Future
raids, however, will be carried out by
the police of the municipalities, and
no longer will authority be extended to
agents to employ members of the
American Protective League or military
men in making actual arrests. The de-
partment, however, will welcome the CO.
operation Of all citizens in the task
of rounding up slackers.
Attornev General Gregorv's letter to

for the New York Stacker raid, hav-

from the President that it be pub

BESIDES their young manhood i'm the

Palestine. Thousands were not present
yesterday to register because they have
already sailed for the Holy Land.
Patriarch, so. Wants to Fight
A white haired patriarch presented
himself before registration officials at
Grand and Ludlow streets and insisted
on having his name taken down. He
had lmmigrated from Russia years ago,
but he wasn't quite sure how many
years. he said. He didn't remember
when he was born and had lost count
OF time, but they could look him over
and if he seemed to be of good fighting
material, he had no dependents and
was ready to go.
In the absence of records the officials
estimated the mans age as somewhere
in the neighborhood of eighty years
and sent him away with the promise
that he would be the first man called
when his class was reached.
Almost the only case of trouble with
a registrant was reported by the board
IN the public library building on East
Houston Street. The man was an Aus
TRAN. He had no objection to giving
his history and said he was willing to
fight if summoned. But he declared
the officials had no right to class him
as an enemy alien. 'I'm friendly to
this country" he said, "and when you
write down anything else you're telling
lie.' He left vowing to take up his
grievance with higher officials.

filed, with the explanation that he
was planning to be out of the CITY
yesterday.
Al Jolson registered there also, and,
according to Waldemar de Billie, one
of the volunteer registrars, the CO.
medlan was in serious frame of mind
at the time. He was followed by DR..
August Henry Werner, who proved to
be an unregistered enemy alien. Dr..
Werner was arrested and turned over
10 the Federal authorities. He came
to the United States in 1914, and said
he didn't register as an enemy alien
because he possessed British "frst pa
pers." Asked for these, he said he had
lost them.

The lines in front of many of the

Austrlans, Hungarians. Italians, Turks,

a discontinuance of the practice.
The Attorney General justified the
dragnet methods in that portion Of his
letter to the President which said:
while this plan was evolved in
discussions with representative of
the Provost Marshal Generals Office,
take full and entire responsibility
for adopting it and for putting it into
effect. know that some such drag
net process is necessary unless thou
sands upon thousands of deserters and

ieve the plan adopted is authorized by
the regulations, l believe, also, iudg-
ing by the results at number of diff
ferent points, that the great body OF
our people will cheerfully submit to
the minor inconveniences which the
execution of any such plan of neces-
sty entails, to the end that this in
dictment of the nations honor, this
drain on the naion's strength, may be
removed. | shall, therefore, continue
to employ the plan unless YOU give di-
rections to the contrary"
That members Of the military forces
or private individuals will not be uti-
lized in future raids was INDICATED by
Mr.. Gregory when he said:
Besides being unlawful, the employ
ment of members of the military forces
and of private organizations in max
ing arrests was ill-judged, as such
men are not generally fitted by train
ing or experience to exercise the dis
cretion required in the circumstances"
The draft regulations provide that all
must carry with them al
ways their registration cards if they
would avoid the embarrassment of be-
ing involved in Stacker raids Depart
ment of Justice operatives asserted
that persons caught in future raids
would be instantly released if proof
could be given that their duty as Amer
