Next Tuesday Registration Day.
All the machinery for the regis
tration of all eligibles under the
selective draft law for next Tues
day has been completed. Through
a cooperation of the forces and the
patriotic service of hundreds of
citizens who have volunteered for
the day, it will be possible to com
plete the work in one day. and by
Wednesday afternoon the govern
ment at Washington will have ac
curate knowledge of the number of
men available for service in the
draft to be made during the next
few months. The registration is
not only a patriotic duty, but a def
inite obligation fixed by the act of
congress.
The only exemptions are officers
and enlisted men of the regular
army, navy, marine corps and
national guard, and officers and en
listed men in the reserve corps
while in actual service. Provision
is made for the registration of
those who are sick or absent from
their homes.
Registration does not mean that
every one registered will be drafted
into actual service, for there are
many causes for exemption, includ
ing physical fitness and family re
lations.
Anyone whose birthday occurs
previous to June 5. beginning 31
years of age at that time, will be
exempt, but should the 31st birth
day occur after the registration
day, and before the day of the
draft, will not constitute an ex
emption. For example, a man
whose 3 1st birthday occurs June
6, is subject to registration and
subsequent draft, should he be
otherwise eligible.
Southern Pine for Ship Building.
Rapidly increasing use of South
ern pine in car construction, ship
building and other industries of
New York state is shown by fig
ures just compiled and published in
the quarterly bulletin of the New
York college of forestry, issued in
cooperation with the United States
forest service.
The total amount of Southern
pine used last year in New York
state is placed at 200,526.815
feet. 11.45 per cent of all woods
used.
In shipbuilding in that state
Southern pine is utilized to a great
er extent than all other lumbers
combined, the record for the past
twelve months having shown 20.
980.800 feet employed for this
purpose, or 55.65 per cent of the
entire amount of woods of every
kind.
Car construction makes an even
greater demand on Southern pine
mills, which are called on to supply
45.49 per cent of the total lumber
used in this branch of the industry.
For car construction in New York
state last year there was used, ac
cording to the bulletin, 36,193,300
feet cf Southern pine.
