Howevet.
It is highly probable that should any
of those In the camps or mills be
drafted they will be allowed to stay
In their present positions as they are
needed worse in the lumber industry
than any place else
The men are
told that they are doing more good
working in the camps and mills that.
If they »ere carrying a gun in th
army
Sohlier Workers
This fact can be appreciated when
it is explained that the army is seek
tng men already enlisted who hate
had experience In the woods and
mills and these men are being asked
to leave their regiments and go back
to their old work in the lumber bust
naaa
These soldiers will be sent t >
any point on the coast where they
are needed and where men cannot be
secured
They will work under the
same scale of wages prevailing in
that particular concern
They will
be looked after by army officers ct
to their deportment and health
Will l.ikely Stay
In view of the fact that men will
be taken out of the army to go ba<\
Into the woods it is not likely that
any men will be taken
from
the
woods to go Into the army. It Is tm
pressed upon the men that they ar-
doing as honorable a thing for then
selves and as much for the country
when they become members of the
.legion ss if they joined the army or
navy and went to the front.

orders had been issued to the effect

"In connection with the filling out
of the questionnaires, word has been
received from the attorney general
to prosecute vigorously those who

In view of the fact that false
statements in support of claims for

give wide publicity to the fact that
such material false statements, even
when the fact« have been distorted
only slightly, will be promptly prose

“Attention should be further di
rected to the fact that all exemptions
and discharges made prior to noon

no validity, and to the fact that ev
