THE SUNDAY OREGOXLVX, rORTLAXD, rr.Cr.3IBKK 0, 1017. QUESTIONS ABOUT SELECTIVE DRAFT ARE ANSWERED FOR BENEFIT OF MANY INQUIRERS Various Features Relating to Requirements of Law and Its Exemptions Set Forth in Reply to Communications ' Received. Farmer With Family and Income. LATOURELL FALLS, Or., Dec. 7. (To the Editor.) (1) I am a married man with two daughters (adopted) In high school. I have Income enough, aside' from the profits of the farm, to j enable them to live comfortably. I do hard manual labor, having a small farm, and cut wood in the dull Winter months. "Which class would. tWis place me in? (2) I am In the district which com prises Multnomah County (outside of Portland). Can you tell me how many registrants there are in this district?) Also the quota? (3) I understand from articles In The Oregonlan by Colonel Disque that any man of draft age who will go into the spruce camps and cut spruce will be exempted. I want to do all I can in these trying times and still be near my family if possible. As the ques tionnaires will be mailed in a few days and it will take several days to dispose of them and sent my place. It will probably be the first of the year before I could go into the camps. Will this exemption offer still hold good then end will there still be openings In the camps at that time? Where can I get further information on this subject and get a job? H. W. M. ) (1) Probably Class 11 (2) Outside of Portland, 1122. Infor mation as to the next quota is not yet available. (3) Your classification will be made with respect to your present employ ment, not with respect to-what you in tend to do. A registrant cannot make claim for a reclassification if his etatus changes, but the board may re classify on Its own motion on receiving a report from him as to such change. For further Information concerning employment In the spruce camps con fer with Colonel Brice P. Disque, Yeon building, Portland. Classification of Farmers. GASTON. Or.. Dec. 6. (To the Ed itor.) (1) Would a man be in class one or two if he was not married- but had been farming since before the war started, providing he had no depen dents? (2) Does the bakery department of the Army have base bakeries or do the bakers go in the trenches A READER. (1) There are three provisions for classifying farmers: Necessary skilled farm laborer in necessary agricultural enterprise, class II. Necessary assistant, associate or hired manager of necessary agricultu ral enterprise, class III. Necessary sole managing, controll ing or directing head of necessary ag ricultural enterprise, class IV. The district board determines whether a particular farm Is a neces sary agricultural enterprise, and, If so, whether the laborer or manager Is necessary to its adequate and ef fective operation. If not necessary and there are no other grounds for discharge, he goes into class I. (2) There are both base and movable akeries, but the bakers do not go into the trenches . Draft and Defective Vision. PORTLAND, Dec. 8. (To the Edl tor.) (1) Please tell me if anyone wearing glasses could pass the exami nation for either Navy or Army serv ice. ' (2) Also if a young man working In Northwestern shipyards would be ex empt, or could be. CONSTANT READER. (1) It depends upon the degree of Imperfection in the eyesight. Some men who are compelled! to wear glasses can pass, the Army examination; others cannot. (2) Men working 1 any shipyard building or fitting ships under the su pervision of the Emergency Fleet Cor poration may be listed for discharge from military service so long as they are so employed upon request of the authorized representative of the Emer gency r'leet corporation. This Is as definite an answer as can be given. Registration After Discharge. . CHEHALIS, Wash., Dec. 7. (To the Editor.) (1) I was a member of the National Guard on registration day and therefore was not required to reg ister. I was later discharged from the National Guard because of dependents. Will I be required to answer the new questionnaire? (2) Should I have registered upon be ing discharged from the National Guard? (3) If so, will I be subject to arrest or Immediate enlistment if I offer to register now, because of having failed to register previously? I still have dependents on account of whom I was discharged from the National Guard. E. L. S. (1) Yes. (2) You should have registered. You ehould now apply to the United States District Attorney for permission to register. (3) Probably if you make a state ment of your misunderstanding there will be no penalty attached. Radio Electricians in Army. OAKLAND, Or., Dec. 7. (To the Edi tor.), -If a man Is in Class II can he take training in radio and when quali fied to meet Army qualifications en list In his branch after December IB, or if he waits until drafted would he be put In this department? A READER. A registrant cannot enlist in any specific branch of the Army after De cember 15. He can state a preference on his questionnaire and also state his special qualifications. It is then up to the Army authorities to assign him. Voluntary enlistments in the Navy are permitted when the registrant pre sents a certificate from his local board showing that his class and order num ber are o low that he Is not within the current local quota. The electrical branch of the Navy enrbraces radio electricians. A registrant can pursue his studies or occupation until called into service. Farm Mast Be Necessary. SHERWOOD, Or., Dec 7. (To the Editor.) Would a farmer. of draft age be called in next draft. If he has no dependents? In what class would he be? t SUBSCRIBER. A specific answer cannot be given. The board would first decide whether the farm is a necessary agricultural enterprise, determining among other things whether it produces agricul tural produce in excess of the require ment of those living thereon for maintenance, and is contributing sub stantially to the military and National interests through its yield of produce. If found to be necessary the board would next determine whether the farmer was necessary to the operation DO DRAFT RECl'LATIOSS FCZ-, ZLG YOUI In a desire to be of assistance to men of selective draft age and to promote the smooth working of registration and classification. The Oregonian has equipped Itself to answer questions concerning the new regulations. The Oregonian will make a spe . cial effort to print promptly re plies to any questions submitted,' but It cannot undertake to send replies by mail. . Any person wishing to have some points elucidated is invited to present the question to The Oregonian. It is especially urged that the name and address of the correspondent be enclosed with question, but such name and ad dress will not be published when the answer is printed if the cor respondent expesses that prefer ence. - The reasons for requesting names are jthat an evidence of good faith is desirable and that sometimes questions must be re turned to the writers to have them more clearly expressed. The Oregonian will also print answers to Inquiries concerning soldiers' Insurance, compensation for soldiers' death or disability, and family allotments. of the farm. He might be put In either the second, third or. fourth class on that ground, depending on whether he was a skilled laborer, associate man- I ager or sole directing head. If .not found necessarv ' he would go Into Class I. ' Classification of Mill Foreman. PORTLAND, Dec 7. (To the Edi. tor.) (1) Will a registrant who is gen eral foreman in a lumber mill, not cut ting spruce, be exempt? (2) Will he, if he has a wife with no commercial training depending on him. and an elderly widowed mother partially dependent? Our existence de pends on his earnings. The registrant was 30 years- and 2 months old when registered. Would you advise him to wait and put in his claim. Is it worthy? , A SUBSCRIBER. W) In the absence of other grounds he might be put into a deferred class which is equivalent to a temporary dis charge until all members of higher classes in his district have been taken. His classification would depend upon whether the district board found his mill to be a necessary Industrial en terprise, and if so whether he was a necessary skilled laBorer (Class II) or a necessary mechanical expert (Class III) therein. (2) Under the statement as given concerning dependents, he would be put into Class IV. which "class will be taken as a last resort. You are not violating t- dutyjf you await receipt of your questionnaire and make claims for exemption on both grounds. Farm Manager's Classification. BENTON, Or, Dec. 6. (To the Ed itor.) (1) What class- will a single man be. in if a farmer, running a farm of 175 acres? (2) Will a single man with mall con tract on. star route be subject to draft? J. C. (1) It depends on whether the district board decides that that particular farm is a necessary agricultural enterprise and if so that the farmer Is a neces sary sole managing or controlling head of It. A farm to be "necessary" must be producing agricultural produce over and above the amount consumed to maintain those on the place and be thereby contributing substantially to the maintenance and operation of the military and public interest. A necessary manager of a necessary I agricultural enterprise goes Into class I IV. a necessarv associate manager into class III. a necessary skilled farm' la- . ill tt borer into class II - " I account. . Status of Postmasters. WESTIMBER, Or., Dec. 6. (To the Editor.) The "questionnaire" places necessary employes In the service of the United Stategln class three. In class five Government officers are Included. Where, fn your judgment. would & fourth-class Postmaster of military age. with no other claim of exemption, be placed? R Only postmasters of the first, second I and third class go into Class V. The Postofflce Department will not file af fidavits necessary for consideration of claim of necessary employment In the service of the United States of any postmaster. If you have no other claim of exemption that seems to place you in Class I. Son of Aliens. MARQUAM. Or., Dec. 6. (To the Ed itor.) (1) Is a man 22 years of age and born in the United States a citizen. while his father is still not natural ised? (2) Can the boy join the United States Army, he being a German? (3) Is he subject to draft? (4) Can a citizen of a neutral coun try be drafted by the United States? J. C. JrL (1) He Is a. citizen of the United States. (2) If you mean the same boy, he can. (3) Yes. (4) No, but be can be classified and admitted to service If he files a waiver of claim of exemption on the ground of alienage. Minimum Weight Hequlremetts. PORTLAND, Dec. 7. (To the Ed itor.) (1) Are drafted men assigned to tne inrantry only : Z) JJo railroad clerical men come under class 17 (3) If 6 feet 1 Inch be the minimum I height of enlistment, what is the min imum weight? A. B. C. (1) Drafted men are assigned only to the land forces, but may be assigned to different branches of the latter serv- Iqe. (2) There is no special classification. (3) The standard minimum ,1s 118 pounds, but If a man Is active, has firm muscles and Is evidently vigorous and healthy he may be accepted at HO pounds. Status of Postal Employes. PORTLAND, Dec. 7. (To the Edi tor.) Is a postal employe In the J1200 grade exempt from draft? Some say yes and some say no. Who is right? SUBSCRIBER. The rule reads as follows: Certificates for discharge for military duty must not be filed for' any rural car rier, city letter carrier, any substitute, or for postofflce clerks receiving salaries less ' than $1100 In first-class offices and $1000 in second-class offices. $uch certificates may- be filed - for supervisory officials ' In postoffices. mechanics and postofflce clerks receiving; In excess of the above amounts only when they cannot be replaced by other persons without - substantial material 'loss of efficiency in effective and ' adequate transmission of the malls. Workers in Shipyards. YAMHILL. Or.. Dec. 6. (To the Ed itor.) (1) If ajnan went to work in a shipyard as an unskilled laborer on Government ships, would he be exempt from draft? (2) Could he get transferred to an other yard when the Government ships were done in the yard he was in or would he have to go in the Army? A READER. (1) Exemption of a man working in a shipyard doing Government work de pends wholly upon the request and cer ticate of an authorized representative of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. If on the list of that official such an em ploye Is not taken for military service so long as he remains on such list. (2) The regulations make no specific provision for transfer , from one yard to another, but presumably It could be arranged by the district representative of the Emergency Fleet Corporation If the labor of the man was needed. Government Secret Service. MILTON. Or.. Dec 6. (To the Edi- ,ce - offlcera are selected through Civil Service examinations. If so. to whom should one write for the proper in formation regarding that service? READER, There are two branches of the Gov ernment Secret Service. One is known as the Bureau of Investigation under the Department of Justice, but this branch is not under Civil Service. All appointments thereunder are made by the chief of the Bureau of Investiga tion at Washington, D. C. The other branch is the Secret Service proper, which is under the Treasury Depart ment and subject to Civil Service. Information regarding It may be ob tained from the Chief of the Bureau of Secret Service, Treasury, Department, "Washington, D. C. Enemy Aliens Cannot Enlist. PORTLAND, Dec. 7. (To the Edi tor.) (1) A few days ago I read that aliens of German birth are barred from taking any civil action in courts against any American citizen. Kindly advise me what a German who has only taken out his first papers could do In case an accident insurance com pany would refuse to pay him indemni ties he is entitled to? (2) Also please state In which branch a German who has declared his inten tion to become a citizen could offer his services to the Government. E. H. (1) The statement you read Is cor rect. If you have a definite case In mind and are not asking a hypothetical question, we suggest that you call on the United States District Attorney and ask him to explain your rights under the trading with the enemy act. (2) He cannot be accepted for mili tary service. Questions That Cant Be Answered. DRAIN, Or., Dec. 6. (To the Edi tor.) (1) When will there be another registration? (2) Will they have a chance to enlist the same as the ones have had in this registration? (S now many more cans will tnere be in tnis registration? (4 w ill the registra- wuu vinri wna i ur la . None of the foregoing questions can be answered at this time. Changes in the selective service law reaardina- ages are subject to the will of Con gress and roust await the action of that body. Future calls of men are dependent upon the needs of tna mili tary service and the department's abil- Ity to train and equip the men. AUen AV,th hlTmt "P"- LfT GROVE, Or.. Dec 7. (To tne Editor). I was born in England, but have ived , the Unlted since I was 4 years old. I have taken out first papers and registered with the expectation of entering the Ameri can Army when I am called, but I have heard that I will be drafted into the English army. Is this true? I much prefer being drafted into the America Army, Dut some nave tola me that on account of having only my first papers I am still an alien. Will be much obliged if you can clear this up for me J. W.
