in, but they filled only third Of
the vacant seats. The late specta-
tors brought a swank touch, for e
number of the women were in eve
ming dress and men in formal attire.
Boys Permitted to Draw.
AS the hours dragged on, the Of
flcials in charge permitted many
young boys from the audience to
draw a few numbers. Messenger
boys, young Government clerks and
others likewise filed to the front of
the stage to participate in the draw
ing.
In the course of the entire lottery
great many of those present took
turn at drawing numbers. Many
veterans of the three World War
lotteries, held % and % years ago,
participated in or looked on.
The lottery was opened by Presi-
dent Roosevelt with ceremony i'm
pressive with the significance of
the moment, which set in motion
Americas first peacetime draft.
Opening Scene Dramatic.
There was drama in the opening
scene. Earnest faces looked up from
the crowd in the ornate hall as
the President told the Nation why
men were being called to defend
their country. The solemn i'm
port of this occasion was realized
as he spoke of the tragic circums-
tances in lands across the seas
which have forced upon our Nation
the need to make measures for total
defense"
A tense interval came when the
President, his brief address closed
waited at the stand before the
microphones and announced the
first numbers as they were pulled
from the bowl by Secretary Stim-
son, Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau, Attorney General jack
son, Secretary of the Navy Knox
and Secretary of Commerce Jones
The echo of a woman's scream
the involuntary outcry of mother
when her sons number, 158, came
out of the first capsule-was. in a
way, an anti-climax to the solemn
pageantry that surrounded the lot
terry. When it was seen that no one
had tainted or been hurt, the spec
tators relaxed and settled back to
take the drawing "in stride"
Among the early group of notables
who pulled capsules was 1t. Col.
Charles r. Morris, retired, who took
a leading part in the World War
draft lotteries. Before drawing his
number, he blindfolded the cabinet
members and congressional leaders
who opened the lottery, just as he
had blindfoJded Secretary of War
Newton D. Baker in 1917.
