Briefly and in simplest terms, the
processes of selection are these Each
registrant in each of $500 local areas
has been assigned number at ran
dom by committee or board of his
neighborS. Each mans number in
each local board area has been Off
clally and permanently recorded
as pertaining exclusively to him in
that area. Those numbers run from
1 to 1886. Opaque capsules, each
containing different number, have
been placed in a glass bowl in the
room where we now stand. These
capsule numbers also run from
to 1886, with a few extra higher
numbers to allow for late registra-
ton. One capsule at a time will be
drawn from the bowl until none is
left in it. AS each capsule is drawn
it will be opened and its number

Ten Per Cent to Be Drawn.
The total drawing will be 10 per
cent of all those registered. Thus,
80 per cent of those who enrolled
will be assured that they can con-
tinue in their present, private and
public occupations. And of the more
than 100000 names which will
come out of the bowl, more than half

This dramatic touch caused a
wave of confusion in an audience,
including high officials and dip
lomats, which had sat in silence
while the President opened the
historic ceremony with brief
address.
The President told the tense
auditorium, THE young men of
America have thought this thing
through" and that they thor
oughly understand the necessity
for national defense"
Crowd Listens in Silence.
He declared "the survival of lib
erty and justice are dependent on
the ability to defend them"
To the young men of draft age,
he said:
You have answered the call as
Americans always have. and Ameri-
cans always will, until the day when
war is banished from the earth"
Promptly at noon the President
arrived on a stage crowded with
high Army officers and oficials from
Selective Service headquarters. The
ornate auditorium, with its lofty
ceiling, massive pillars and gold
trimmed stone, was hushed as Dr.
Clarence A. Dykstra, director of
Selective Service, stepped to the
microphone and opened the cere-
mony. He said only, Ladies and
gentlemen, the President of the
United States"
The President was cheered when
he arrived and when he began and
closed his speech. Otherwise the
crowd listened in silence.
Stimson Blindfolded.
There was a dramatic pause as
Col Charles R. Morris, the retired
officer who blindfolded Secretary of
War Newton D. Baker at the first
World War draft lottery in the sum-
mer of 1917, bandaged the eyes of
Secretary Stimson with the same
cloth which came from the uphol-
stery of a chair in independence
Hall. Philadelphia.
Col. Morris led the Secretary of
War until he stood in front of the
big glass bowl which served the
same purpose at two of the three
World War lotteries. The bowl was
filled with big blue capsules. The
capsules were Opaque, but those in

*Corfu Landing Reported

ATHENS, Oct. % R.-British
troops were reported today to have
landed on the Island of Corfu, in
the Ionian Sea just off the Greek
Albanian border, as crack Greek
killed troops were hurled into ac-
ton against attacking Italians along
the border.
The reported British landing
brought a surge of confidence that
real aid was at hand.
1t was said the British planned
to establish an air base on Corfu,
from which British planes could
help guard Greek cities from attack
and at the same time be within
striking distance for counterattacks
on important Italian detectives,
just across the Ionian Sea.
Reports of the landing on Corfu
followed uncondrmed accounts yes
terday that British naval units beat
back Italian warships approaching
the island and that British blue
jackets landed at another Greek
defended island nearby.
Italians Declared Halted.
Government circles declared that
attacking Italians, striking through
passes along the mountainous bound
airy between Greece and Albania,
had been unable to drive back the
Greek defenders.
The killed troops rushed in to
hold the Metaxas defense line are
known as "Evson"-special units of
mountaineers recruited from the dis
trict they are now defending. The

The text of the Presidents ad-
dress opening the drawing follows:
Members of your Government are
gathered here in the Federal Build
ing in Washington to witness the
drawing of numbers as provided
for in the Selective Service Act of
1910.
This is a most solemn ceremony.
1t is accompanied by no fanfare
no blowing of bugles or beating of
drums.
There should be none.
We are mastering all our re-
sources, manhood and industry and
wealth to make our Nation strong
in defense. For recent history
proves all too clearly, I am sorry
to say, that only the strong may
continue to live in freedom and in
peace
We are well aware of the cir
cumstances-the tragic circum-
stances in lands across the seas
which have forced upon our Ma
ton the need to take measures for
total defense.
In the considered opinion of the
Congress of the United States this
selectiye service provides the most
democratic as well as the most
efficient means for the mastering of
our man power.
On October l6 more than 10000
900 young Americans registered for
service. Today begins that selec-
ton from this huge number of the
100000 who will go into training
for one year.
Reports from all over the coun-
try attest the quality and the gen.
eral spirit of the young men who
registered for service.
How Lottery Works.
The young men of America to-
day have thought this thing
through. They have not been
stimulated by or misled by militar-
list propaganda. They fully under
stand the necessity for national de-
Tense and are ready, as all citizens
of our country must be, to play
their part in 1t.
They know simply that ours is a
great country-great in perpetual
devotion to the cause of liberty and
Justice, great in faith that always
there can be, must be, will be a bet
ter future. They know that in the
present world the survival Of liberty
