opportunity of finding other places.
When the local and district boards
ultimately find that man is disobey-
ing the order he will be certified for
Induction into military service.
"The order is more to compel the
drones to work than to disturb or
hinder men supporting families. With
this in mind, the local and district
boards will temper their rulings with
sympathetic understanding The in
tention is to avoid imposing undue
hardship in instances where it can be
avoided.
"The status of the registrants az
fected by the order will be determined
on affidavits and investigation. Rea-
sonabie extensions will be given and
opportunities will be offered for war
service employment through tho Unit
ed States Employment Bureau"
Captain Asch announced that quss-

the local boards, to be filled out by
the young men who registered on June

Federal and state detectives, police
men and volunteer civilians swooped
down on the Brownsville section OF
of Brooklyn at the rush hour last night
gathering in fully thousand men ap-
parently Of military age, at four ele-
waited railroad stations. They took
nearly 700 of them to police stations
in automobiles for further examination.
Twenty-one were held as draft dodgers
and one for alleged disorderly conduct.
There was considerable resistance to
arrest. mostly offered by the women
folk of the men seized or by feminine
conscientious objectors. The district,
according to letter written by mem
bers of Local Board SO, which includes
part of Brownsville and Canarsie, has
many disloynlists and has not yet pro-
vided one-half of its quota for the
draft.

The Zero hour" was o'clock. From
that time until the raiders wedred
their way through the panicky, sullen
throngs. picking out the men who ap-
peared to be of draft age. Some of the
men were accompanied by women, who

When the draft classifications we're
