PORTLAND, Dec. 4. Thousand
of young men In the three Pacific
Northwest states, Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho, are enlisting In the
navy to escape the selective service .
armies.
The local recruiting office of the
navy, whose territory includes a largo
part of the northwest, is unable to
handle the great number of men ap
plying for enlistment. Every chair
is taken and even standing room Is at
a premium in the recruiting office.
Hundreds are applying daily.
Recruiting officers are advising
men to apply for any rating In order
to be accepted. Later they can b
transferred to the rating most de
sired. It is expected by navy officers that
Congress will enact a law whereby
drafted men can be transferred to
the navy, as the navy needs a large
number of men since the merchant
fleet has been placed under the con
trol of the Navy Department.
