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

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-

borer into class II

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.
