REGISTRANTS ARE BEING
RECLASSIFIED TODAY


All registrants in Latah county are
being reclassified today. The work
is being conducted by the selective
draft board, assisted by all of the at
torneys of Latah county. Every name
on fhe list is being inspected and it
is believed that recommendations for
the reclassification of a number of
them will be made.
The government needs more men
and has requested all boards to reclas-
sify the registrants and raise those in
classes two, three and four to higher
class, and by this means it is hoped
to get great many class one men
who can be called at any time they
are needed. Latah county will prob,
ably have number of men in class
one when the work is finished, who
are now in other classes. When all
of the class one men have been called
the class two men will be summoned
to serve their country. 1t is esti-
mated that it will take all of the class
one and two men to complete the army
it is desired to raise, 100000 men.
