Plainville News OVER 300 OBLIGED ) T0 REGISTER HERE Report Shows 88 of Dralt Age Are Without Dependants ONLY THO ENEMY ALIENS | State Military Census Commission Sends Statement for Use on Regis- tration Day—122' Eligibles Have Others Depending on Them. More than three hundred men, to be exact 308, will have to register in Plainville for conscription next Tues- day, according to the report of the state military census commission sub- mitted today to the town clerk :to serve as a guidé for the local registra- tion board. The report is based on the returns made from the miliitary census recently made and while there will probably be some changes in the classification of the eligibles because of the ruling of the war department r'e'sardlng dependencies, it is. believed that the figures are approximately correct. In the report received thi§ merning the classification shows that of the 308 men in town between the ages of 21 and 80 inclusive, there are 83 who &re without dependents and,sgccord- ing to their own statements, are ap- parently physically fit for military service. There are 122 who have others dependent upon them for sup- port; sixteen who have taken out their first papers Tor citizenship; seventy- five friendly aliens, two unfriendly aliens and ten not placed in any par- ticular group, When the military - census was taken there were probably a féw who | are eligible for conscription but who were skipped in the making of the en- rollment. Then -there are some who although included in the census by reason of their living here will pre- fer to-register in their home towns. This number will probably be balanced by Plainville boys who are living in other places and who will send their blanks in to the local ‘boafd. In the -83 classified as being phy- sically fit and without dependents and who would naturally be ' the logical candidates for for Plainville’s repre- sentation in the first 'conscription army of 500,000 there are undoubted- ly several wHb would not pass the rigid: examination of the regimental physiclans. As the war department has seemingly included in the con- scription registration as exempt from draft because of dependencies only those who have another looking solely. on them for support, many whose .names appear in the dependency clas- sification made by the state military census commission will be trans- ferred to the no dependents list. Speculation continues as to the probable number which Plainville will have to furnish and whether towns will be given credit when the troops are conscripted for the young men already in the service. The war department has not made an an- nouncement as to this feature of the draft but it is probable that only a small percentage of ‘the eligibles will be called to the colors for .the 500,000 army. The registration board today con- tinued its preparations for next Tues- day's work. The officials and their aides are ready to start on their duties at gnce, should they be per- mitted to begin ‘enrolling before Tuesday, and it is not expected that there will be any great confusion here.. Eligibles for the most part it is ex- pected will respond without hesi- tancy to the order to register. Among the foreigners, particularly those em- ployed at ths quarries, it is said there some sunderstanding regarding the law. It is reported that there has been an anti-registration campaign among them and an attempt has been made to show the way for evading the order, Ignorance of the president’s proclamation seemingly is largely re- sponsible for this feeling as most of the quarrymen, other than those who are citizens'of the United States ,are classified as friendly aliens. The registration board proposes to get the co-operation of the men in charge of bhoth quarries and it 18 likely that the warkers of age eligible for registra- tion will be told of the necessity of obeying the law and the penalties prescribed for evasion. The selectmen have had placards carrying Information as to Reglstra- tion Day posted in conspicuous places around town and by next Tuesday it feems impossible that there will be a single man in town not familiar, with the course he is expected to pursue. ' Wife Beater Heavily Fined. The need of a public whipping post for, wife beaters was demonstrated in ‘Plainville last evening when the case of Vincenzo Gilelamo came up before Justice E. P. Prior for consideration.

Although his wife, weak from the | brutal dssault, fell fainting into the arms of Constable Marino gs she was- attempting to testify, the accused sat calmly in his chair and appeared un- concerned over her condition.

Gilalamo was fined $20 and costs for assault, and $7 for breach of the peace, and 'was sentenced to sixty days in jail. The court suspended the execution of the latter penalty and ordered the accused to put up a bond of $100 to insure his keeping of the peace for six months. Gilalamo paid $40.90, the.total of his fines and the cost of prosecution, besides putting up.| the $100 band ‘which the court re- quired. Complaint was made to Justice A. H. Condell early vesterday morning regarding a distutbance at the GHl- alamo home on Whiting street. He notified Constable Maring, whose ir- vestigation showed that the accused, angered over his wife's refusal to give him money, had kicked and punched her~into unconsciousness and would have shot her had not neighbors taken away a revolver from him. The officer secured a warrant from Grand Juror M. A: Norton and took the man from the Rockwell-Drake plant, where he is employed. Mrs. Gilalamo was given treatmgnt by Dr. J. N. Bull, but when she appeared in court she was so Wweak . that she swooned during the. hearing. Gililamo has a bad record and the authorities have had trouble with him, before, He was warned last evening that in case he violated his proba- tion during the hext &ix months, hée will forfeit his bond and.will have to go to mx for at leajt slxty days. b Plan & Seli Liberty Bonds. Members of the committee appoint- ed by the¥Plainville Trust company at the suggestion of H. L. Aiken, gover- nor of the federal reserve bank at Boston, met last evening in the Town hall to devise plans for increasing Plainyille’s subscriptions'to the Liber- ty loan. The committée hopes that the town will purchase from $15,000 to $20,000 worth -of the bonds. Over $10,000 has already been subscribed Here and™luring the next two weeks a vigorous campaign will be waged In an effort t6 double the amount. Enthusiasm' was exhibited by the committee members,at the = meeting and they are apparently determined to work hardsto make Plainville’s part in the giant loan a big success. It is likely that the committee willy prevail upon manufacturers to pur- chase bonds for their employes, per- ‘mitting them to pay for them on the installment plan. The Trust company has agreed to furnish the money with- out interest charges. Frank T. Wheeler was named to serve as chairman of the manufac- turers’ committee, Charjes. H, Calor was chosen to lead the merchants lnd farmers’ board; Postmaster P, Prior was elected to lead the post of- fice workers, and. Rev. R. I&. Burton was placed at the head of the minis- ter's committee. A. A. McLeod avas appointed to serve as chairman: ol the general committee. Each comumittee will make iu Lown plans and, while no arrangements have | been made for a house to hoyse’¢al vass, the indications are that one in town will be informed as value of the bonds as an In for themselves as well as tp t! in the successful prosecution’ war.
