II Questionnaires Out; so Per
Cent of County Men in
Glass No. 1.

The order TO stop the further ex-
animation of all draft men placed in
Glass No. / on their questionaires was
based on the grounds that changes are
10 be made In the regulations govern
ing the physical qualifications so
changing them that many men who
have been elimiscted will not be ac-
cepted, is apparent from an order re-
ceived by Adjutant General Moody
from tie provost marshal generals de-
partment reviewing Sections 1872 to
lSS inclusive. For these sections,
all Of which deal with physical re-
Quirements, there will be substituted
new regulations which will permit the
examination board to accept in the
future men who heretofore nave been
refused becalsc of physical defects.
Adjutant General Moody has noti-
fed examining physicians assisting the
boards that while the order to cease
examining draft men causing great In
convenience because many of the men
have come long distance to be examin-
ed, the matter cannot be helped. As
soon as the substitute regulations for
Section 1872 to 1SS, inclusive, are re-
ceived all draft boards will be i'm
mediately notified end the changes
sent to them.
