Muny Will Volunteer ruder I li- New
Holing Work I'or HwoimI
Draft Well I'mler Way
No volunteer will be accepted In
t
the army after December 15 from i
the vaat number of men who are ot
draft age.
All who wlah to choline their!
work while In the service must act
before the above date, otherwise
the rules affecting the second draft
will be followed to the letter, and
every reglatered man will await his
call after that date.
Men not of draft age may enlist
however, In any branch of the serv
ice for which they can qualify.
Many will no doubt volunteer
under the new ruling, and as the
second cull will be made December
1ft Ilia a(M rif Ilia nrmv will tin'
greatly increased before January 1
Active preparations for the second
draft have been begun by Adjutant
Oenerul William. A new plan in i
the operation of the draft goes Into
effect with this second call and De
cember 15 has been set as the date.
But there is no end of detail to be
accomplished before that time and
the adjutant general s office has al-1
ready begun the job. In order to
Inform the public of the new plan ,
notices are being sent from the ad
jutant general's office. Changes af-i
feet every man subject to draft
without exception:
The new plan goes Into effect on
December 15. But on December 1, !
preparations for putting it into ef
fect will begin all over the United '
States.
At that time all exemptions or
discharges for military service un
der the draft will automatically be
canceled.
Exemptions hereafter will be
based on an improved system where
by the government will have exact
knowledge of every registered man
and his affairs.
The basic principle of the new
system is that those men are to be
taken first who have no persons de
pendent on them.
Under this classification come sin
gle men, married men whose wives
support them, married men
have habitually failed to support
their families, or whose families are
Independent of them tor support.
Men In this class will be subject
to call first. They will be listed un
der what will be known as Class 1.
The married men and those with
persons other than their wives or
children Immediately dependent on
them for aupport, as well as thoae
whose work is necessary to indus
tries essential to the war, including
agriculture, will be listed in other
classes. There will be five classes
in all. ,
The effect of classification in
classes below Class 1 will be to
grant a temporary discharge from
the draft, for men in these classes
will not be called until the class or
classes above theirs has been ex
hausted. But before this system can be put
into effect, information must be
gathered on which to make the
classification of each. man.
To obtain this information, and
to compile it afterward, the govern
ment has prepared books called
questionnaires.
The questionnaires contain ques
tions covering every phase ot a
man's occupation, his Income, that
of persons he claims to be dependent
on him, his family relations, his
business, his health.
Each registered man must an
swer one of these questionnaires' in
full.
A questionnaire will be mailed by
the local board to each registered
man directed to the address on his
registration card or as that address
may be changed by notice of change
of address filed therewith, within
the next two or three weeks.
He will have seven days in which
to make the required answers and
return the questionnaire to the
board.
Failure to answer will automatic
ally cancel his rights to exemption
and will put him in Class 1.
