COMPLETE ARGUMENT REACH
ED BY SENATE AND HOUSE
CONFEREES ON BILL EXTEND
ING LAW TO YOUTHS.

WASHINGTON, May t3.-F Final steps
toward completion of legislation amend
ing the selAtiye service law were
taken by congress today.
complete agreement was reached by
senate and house conferees on the bill
extending tn law to youths attaining
their majorities since last June. The
dispute over exemption of theological
and medical students from registration
was compromised with the adoption of
a provision exempting them if actual
ly enrolled when the act is signed, but
requiring registrants at the bottom of
the eligible lists was retained.
The conference report was adopted
after considerable debate in which a
number of senators denounced elimi-
nation from another bill already passed
of the plan to give states credit for
volunteers Senator Johnson of Califor-
mia said elimination of the provision
penalized enthusiastic states and Sem
ator PheIen of California said he would
circulate a petition asking President
Wilson not to approve the measure.
Senator Pomerene, of Ohio, said he
would prepare a substitute plan.

MISSISSIPPI DRAFT
BOARDS BEING PROBED

JACKSON, Miss, May i3.-The federal
grand jury is making an investigation
of charges Of irregularity and favorit-
ism shown registrants by local exemp-
ton boards in several counties in south
Mississippi.
large number of witnesses have
been summoned for the inquiry. among
them being secret service agents VINO
have been engaged in investigation
work in this state for some time.
One of the most notable cases Is that
of Smith county, where the entire local
exemption board was summarily dis
charged by Adjutant General Scales
some time ago, and a new board ap-
pointed. 1t is expected that there will
be several indictments returned against
parties in that county.
The work of local boards in at least
three other counties is also being in
vestigated by the grand jury and the
probing will last several days.
