Tacoma. Wash., Aug. 1. Selective draft men who, not knowing their exact age, regis ter, are drafted sent here and and endeavor to obtain exemption on the gtounds, that they are over age after being inducted, will be obliged to re main in the army, according to a ruling received here for the guidance of the camp exemption board. The i interpretation was received after an inquiry had been made re garding the status of a Montana se lect who is in the depot brigade and who is 37 years old. In his claim for exemption on the ground that he is n subject to the draft, he said that, he registered on 'June 5. 1917, not knowing whether or not he was 31 years of age. Within a few days he ascertained from his rel atives that he was 36 years old but made no effort to have hi3 registra tion cancelled by the local board, and being single and without dependents, was sent here. He has made a claim for exemption more than a year after discovt rey that he was not of mili tary age; and, as an added reason for his discharge, asserted in his affi davit that he could not read or write. In compliance with the rul ing that men so remiss that they do not ask to have their registration cancelled when they are in posses sion ofllhe information in ample time before being: called, must re main in service, his claim was denied and it was rwommended to the com manding officer of the depot brigade that the applicant be transferred to the developent battalion where he will receive elemental instruction in reading, writing and arithmetic; ' Captain Howard M. Smitten In the construction department of the quartermaster's corps and whose home is in Berkeley, Cal., today re ceived promotion to the rank of ma jor in the engineers.

County Superintendent Smith Gives Figures for Marion . 1 County Taxpayers of Marion county who. have taken pains to read over the semi-annual report of the countv treasurer just published, have been confronted with some big totals un der the head of county schools, high school and special schools. Next to tho outlay for roads and bridges, .the educational facilities of Salem and Marion county make up the heaviest item of expense in the annual bud get. Yet they are conducted about as economically as they can be In keeping with efficiency. , A expenses connected with the schools have increased, but the sal aried of teachers have not been ad vancll in proportion with worker in other lines. The annual report of County Superintendent W. M. Smith which has just been completed employe.l in the 127 school districts of whom 29(5 were women and T3 men. The salaries of the former av eraged $G2.4i;, while the latter showed an average of fi.1.03 a month. This figure as to women teachers In the rural districts is misleading, as the group of teachers in the Salem schools receive considerably higher pay than those outside. It should be noted' also that the figures will not apply to the coming school year, as all the city school teachers have been allowed what amounts to a 10 per cent raise over last yea 13 rae The county has now on hand a to tal of "!; schoolhouses upon which insurance must be paid, but only 12C of the total have leen in use, re quiring heat and janitor service. The total value of school property at the close of the school year, June 17. -91N, was $70x,irl. an increase of $13,411 over the estimated valua tion of property for the previous year. Among other statistics the report shows that these were eight special schools maintained during the year, employing twenty-two men teachers and thirty-six women teachers, an j attf -.d.d by 52 children.
