Provost Marshal General Crowder
has sent a telegram to all Governors
of States and Territories through
out the nation asking that the
various local exemption boards who
I have worked so loyally for their gor
eminent be suitably . cognzed and
and to this end the following tlee
gram, designated as Xo B-1290, dat"
ed June 4tu, 1918 has been receiv
ed by this paper with the request
that it be printed in full:
One year ago occurred the first
' registration for military purposes
j of the youn^ manhood of the Xa
[ tion. Ten million men responded in
a single day. This accomplishment
was nothing short of marvelous.
The talk o' utilizing this, enormous
force seemed unachievable. But
i the work of classification of this
great mass of man power in such
Photo Supplies
a way as to permit of its organiza
tion and moulding into an effective
army was entrusted to forty six hun
dred and sixty three local boards
and one hundred fifty six district
boards constituting a force of near
ly fifteen thousand of the leading
citizens of every community who a*
sisted in their work by more thaa
one hundred thousand equally pa
triotic volunteers, have performed
a work that challenges the at
tention and excites the admiration
of all our people.
Well may we pause today, wni;«
another million of our youths enter
the lists, and survey and results of
the year's work. Each registrant
has been examined and his avaiiabili
ty for military service has heen de
termined. In other words these
millions o^ men have been classified
in such a manner that the Nation
may now call for them to come for
ward into the Army. No call can b«
so largo that it will not be filled im
mediately whether the number be
such as may be filled by those who
have been found to stand in the
first rank of availaoility must go
forward. In other words all these
millions of men who one year
were an inert mass have become a
mobile Army. Each has found his
place and each in his proper turn
has marched or awaits the order
to march. ,
These results could not have been
accomplished except through) the de
voted and unselfish labon of patriots
The Local and District Boards have
scored an. unprecedented triumph
and have earned the undying; grati
tude of the Nation. Their achieve
ment is one of the great successes
of 'he war. They have already sent
to camp including those under orders
for June mobilization, an army of
more than a million and a half men.
They have already produced as. sol
<Vers one man out of every six reg
istrants and the world Btands In,
profound astonishment as It views
this accomplishment.
Statistically stated, the Local
Boards have sent, and are sending
their registrants to camp in, the fol
lowing numbers:

Compensated poorly, if at ail,
except by the gratitude: and affec
tion of their neighbors and of the
Nation at large, the Boards have la
bored incessantly through the ener
vating heat of last summer, only to
find still greater tasks awaiting
their unceasing devotion through
l out the rigors of the following win
ter period. Then, having accom
plished the classification they found
themselves confronted with the mo
bilization of millions of men and ac
curately and promptly they have
performed and are performing this
labor.
Much work yet remains. Today
the new men of twenty one are be
ing registered and must be speedily
classified. On the first of next
month the Local and District boards
will be invested with the still fur
ther responsibility of preventing
idleness and of unproductive em
ployment which is not effective to
the Nation in the emergency. Some
boards will review their work and
correct these inequalities which,
have teen unavoidable in so tre
mendous an undertaking.
The Nation, however, with full
confidence in the men who have pei
formed these great tasks in the
past, faces the future without fore"
boding. The splendid work of our
ocal and District Boards and of
the other great volunteer army
| of assistants has filled us with ad
miration. They have been tried
land found true and so long as thia
war may last, our people are hap
py iu the complete assurance that
thi> great organization will not fall
! the Nation.
