After an existence of one year and

army draft system-goes out of exist
ence today. Official notices of the
termination of their services have
been sent to all draft boards and aux

the only organization of its kind ever

or a dozen clerks will be kept at

records of the state draft boards.
The army draft system in kansas
and thruout the nation-began with
the first registration under the ma
tional draft, which took place on June
5. 1917 OF the 3S2,O65 Kansas men
who registered in the June ., 1917,
draft and the subsequent draft on
August "a, 1917, and June 5, 1918,
42102 were indicted into the army.
This number was approximately half

flee and ultimately this official had
in his charge three military organiza-
tions-the draft system, the Kansas
state guards and the Kansas national
guards. The draft system in this state
was instituted under Adjt. Gen.
Charles L. Martin, head of he Kansas
national guards, who resigned to lead
his troops. on August >, 1917 Maj.
R. Neil Rain, assigned to the adJutant
generals office by the regular army
and still on the force as disbursement
officer, was in charge of the office I'M
til the appointment of DR.. Charles S.
Huffman of Columbus, a Spanish war
veteran, on October /, 1917, as sue
cessor to Adjutant General Martin.
After serving in the federal army in
this country and over seas, meanwhile
being promoted to the rank of briga-
der general, General Martin received
his discharge and returning home, was
reinstated to the post of adjutant gen.
eral upon General Huffman assuming
his new duties as lieutenant governor.
10000 Workers i'm State.
The draft forces of the state sradu-
ally were built up until the system
thruout the state finally had a work
ing force of approximately 10000 per-
sons. This personnel comprised lis
local boards. two district boards. 23
medical advisory boards, los legal ad-
visory boards, 105 boards of instruc-
ton and two advisory boards for the
district draft boards. A great many of
the members of the local boards
served for little or no pay, the medical
and legal advisers served without re-
enumeration. While taking the nation
as whole it cost the government $3.50
per drafted man, the 42.102 Kansas
men drafted cost the government but
$3.50 per man. 1t is believed the final
record of the draft system in this state
six local boards claimed the full wages
due them. many of these officials con-
sidering it their patriotic duty to serve
their country in that capacity.
Kansas Draft Cost $269,O31.7s.
On the basis of $3.50 per man, it
thus is apparent that the total cost to
the federal government of drafting the
42,102 Kansas men was 1853, O31. 3.
1t is estimated that the expense to the
state will run this total to more than
| 100000 or approximately $4,000 a
month. An average of So to 40 clerks
have been maintained in the adjutant
generals office during the operation
| of the draft.
The draft system in Kansas was
| operated efficiently and without fric-
ton or serious interference by object
ors." In the final cleanup it was as
| certained that some 1000 men after
| registration had failed to- respond,
| but investigation revealed that the
| large majority of these were men who
| had volunteered in the service before
| they received induction notice and that
prOba bly, not more than 200 of the
1000 are cases calling for prosecution
by the federal government. A regular
army inspector who recently inspected
| the adjutant generals office declared
| that Kansas draft record was the best
of any state he thus far had inspected.
