Physical Tests Of Registrars
Ordered To Be Begun Forthwith
Interior With Making Men Ready for Instant Service When
Time Arrives Examining Physicians Required Give
Definite Verdict

Washington. Sept rs -- Provost
MarshaiGenerai Crowder is not GO
ing To permit an unavailable. delay
in fixing the date OF the big draft
drawing to hold back his program for
Itop-speed work in getting the eligible
class OF men in uniform
While actual induction into the mil
itary service must necessarily await
the results of the drawing, local
boards throughout tie country were
instructed by telegraph to proceed
forthwith" with the physical exam
.ination of registrants.
The work of determining the physi-
cal fitness of all registrants between
nineteen and twenty and thirty-two
and thirty-seven years of age will
be conducted as rapidly as they are
placed in class / by the local boards
Moreover, this will be done regardless
OF any appeals they may have taken
to their district boards from such
classification.
The only exception to this rule Is
where the appeal is accompanied by
IA claim for deferred classification on
"occupationar' or national interest"
grounds. The latter means in sub
stance grounds necessary to the
maintenance of the military estab-
lishment." and of the national in
iterest during the emergency"
In certain cases where local boards
receive orders at the request of the
army, navy or marine corps, individ-
lual registrants. found to be physical
~ qualified. may be indicted into the
service prior to the draft drawing,
In all other cases, however. actual
induction will be in accordance with
the order numbers as determined by
the drawing.
1t is thus apparent that there will
be no change in the original plans
for an October and November draw
ing. The task of classifying the reg
istrants Is said to be proceeding rap
idly, and in majority of localities the
physical examinations, ordered to-
day. may be commenced at once.

est number of recistrants recorded by
any single board in the country, final
returns from all the states are ex-
pected before the expiration of the
week, The preparation of the cap
sules which ARE TO contain the sep
arate numbers has been completed.
and everything is in readiness for the
big event, which is being eagerly
awaited by l3,0o0,0 600 American cit
liens
General Crowder also defined the
rulings bearing upon the medical ex-
aminations which are of immediate
interest to registrants. Whether the
examining physician is in doubt or
not as to the physical qualification of
registrant. he must nevertheless re-
port the registrant definitely as quail
fed or disqualified.
II the physician is in doubt, how
ever. he may request to have the
registrant sent before a medical ad-
visory board. On the other hand. IL
the government appeal agent or two
members of the board are dissatisfied
with the examiners findings. either
may apply for further examination
by the advisory board.
In case the registrant is found to
be disqualified he must he sent be-
fore the advisory board for further
examination unless by unanimous vote
the feeai board decides there can he
no doubt as TO his unfitness for mill
tary service.
