No Deferred Classification
Registrant Who Marries
Widow With Children

Boston, July 10-Major Roscoe s.
Coakling, a representative Of Provost
Marshal General Crowder, explained
various phases Of the selective ser
vice law to several hundred repre-
sentatives Of local boards tonight.
One of the interesting rulings, he
said. was that reg.strant who mar
ried a widow with children did not
thereby become entitled to deferred
classification on the ground Of de
tendency. The ruling, lie added was
made because it was found that men
in various localities were acquiring
ready-made families"
Major Conkling cautioned the
members Of the boards against SEN
timent in classification. Sentiment
must be disregarded," he SAID. 1T
will not win the war"
He declared that no state in the
country has surpassed assachusetts
in excellence Of admlnistra ton of the
draft law, and he brought tn com
pliments Of General Crowder to the
