however, that when ho present his

the new irnft bill will contain pro
visions for classifying drafted men as

Senator Fall declared the war depart

scored the military affajrs committee
for accepting Baker's judgment.
Chamberlain replied that peisonally
he disagreed with Baker, but that the

Senator Sterling deimiiulHl what (ion

with his superiors, linker and March.
"General Crowd-r pointed out to us
that his job is to carry out orders, not
to formulate policy," said Chamberlain
"But I know that General Crowdci
is strongly hi favor of changing the age

Pretty irl Will Draw
Draft Numbers Tomorrow
Washington, June 26. A pretty girl
will determine the order in which 21
year old men, recently registered, will
be called to service by tomorrow's
draft lottery here.
For it has been decided that "Major
Billy" Wellborn a young aide at Pro
vost Marshal General Crowder 's office,
shall draw the numbers from the great
lottery bowl.
And hoi:' is how the young men may
know their order of call:
All registration cards are numbered.
Each number drawn will correspond
to similar numbers on hundreds, of
cards held by recently registered men.
Tho order in which the number is
drawn determines the order i which
those holding correspondingly num
bered registration cards will be called.
For instance, if your registration card
is numbered "3" and that number is
the tenth drawn from the bowl, your
place in the line of call will be ten.
