VOLUNTARY INDUCTION _ RBUIED ON Be : Adjutant General Pleased with Small Quota Asked of This State ea BURLEIGH WILL SEND 28 Voluntary induction will be largely relied upon to fill! North Dakota's quote of 1,000.men who are to be en- trained the week of August 26 for Camp Lewis,. American Lake, Wash. Because the number of class 1 men Is limited and largely confined to agrr culturists, the adjutant general be lievés that sufficient men will be found in non-essential indastries ana deferred classes to complete this small ‘quota. « His call issued to each of the state's 53 local boards this morning follows: The provost marshal general has issued induction call No. 1141 upon this state, as follows: “During the five-day period beginning August 26, complete the entrainment for Camp Lewis, American Lake, Washington, of 1,000 men.” Only white men and men physically qualified for general mili- tary service are to be inducted under this call. ‘The number of men called for under this call must be actually entrained. Only men in Class 1 are to} be inducted. The apportionment of the different} boatds is as follows: Adams .. ral Barnes » 40 Benson 12 Billings . 1 Bottineau . 12 Bowman 9 24 Burke .. Burleigh Cass .

The call is so much smaller that this office. had reason to expect, that it is a subject of congratulations that the request made on the war department by the executive heads of the state have been granted. The war depart t has recognized the need of men to harvest the present crop. Let the call be fill- ed from men that can best be sparea this month. Your local paper wil! probably give you space for full in- formation. Of course, if voluntary ap-|! plications are not on hand to com pletely fill the call. say by August 15, it is your duty to involuntarily indyct your, full apportionmeht, in sequence of order number. and registration year; full consideration being given to agricultural and industrial require- ments. This office deems it proper to say that Camp - Lewis he second largest in the United States; that men who entrain for that camp will see'a great. deal of the country and while it may be a trifle out of the direct line oversea, yet all roads eventually lead-in that direction.

British Mystery Ship | Plays a Big Part in Snaring Submarines London, Avg. 6—Revelations regard- ing the work of a British mystery ship | has played an important part in sub-| marine work were made today’ by a! correspondent of the London. Mail. 1 They show how British seamen; have met German craft and sunning. | Until this week the public has known nothing about the mystery ship or “Q” ship, although several officers notably } Capt. Gordon Temple has been decor: | ated for service on them. Details can now be. niade pup-| lic as. the Germans are now aware of the methods. How a ‘“‘womat: and baby” accounted for a U-boat is told by the correspondent. The sub- marine ordered a vessel to surrender and fired a few. shells into her. The crew then left the ship leaving on board a “woman” who ran up ana down the deck with a “baby” in her arms, running up and down as though mad. The “woman” then- hurled the “baby” into the hatch. The “baby” then exploded tearing a ‘hole in the submarine. The “woman” was decor- ated with the Victoria“cross. Haystack Comouflage. In addition to the “woman and baby” case, the. correspondent men- tions the story. of a retired, admirat serving as a captain. who ‘placed: = haystack on board an ancient looking craft. ‘When the U-boat ordered her. Yo surrender, the Germans were as- tonished to receive a broadside from the haystack. | On another occasion, a seaworn | tramp steamer was crossing the North Sea, when a submarine ordered the crew. to abandon ship. The bombs with which the Germans intended to sink the vessel were bfought on deck around the conning tower. The commander of the tramp steamer by careful maneuvering brought the submarine within range of his concealed armament so it re- quired only a. shell or two to blow the U-boat out of the water.
