AF[ER_WE_IINESI]AY Negligents May Register Until That Time, Attorney Says Up to and through next Wednes- day al] men between the ages of 21 and 81 years who falled to register tor conscription on June 5 will be permitted ta register, according to a statement issued last night by United States District Attorney Thomas J. Spellacy. Afer next Wednesday it will be the duty of local registration boards, with police co-operation, to seek out and arrest all slackers. Upon receipt of information regard- ing each slacker the federal author- ities will {ssue warrants and prosecu- tion will tollow. District Attorney’s Statement. The district attorney's statement regarding the above follows: Reports made to me by various clerks of the registration boards throughout the state indicate a mis- comprehension of the registration law. Its primary object is to require the registration of all male persons between the ages of 21 and 31 years. In many instances, the clerks have reported to my office the names of _persons who failed to register, with. out furnishing any other informa- tion. It is the duty of the clerks and of registration boards in all cases to consult their local police of- ficers, and to ask these officers to render such assistance in the execu- tion of the law as may be required. On account of this misconception, the time for voluntary registration will be extended until and including Wednesday, June 27, 1917. Clerks or registration boards are conse- quently requested receive all ap- plications for registration and to reg- ister persons who will apply before this date. They should further have. their local officers. seek out those persons liable for registration - who have not registered and endeavor to get them to register. In the event of the refusal of such persons to register, after being requested, the clerks or registration boards should immediately cause such person to be arrested and report this fact to me. Upon the.receipt of such a report, & warrant for the arrest of such per- sons will be issued and there will be no leniency shown in cases of [ this character. In other words, it is my desire to lextend to all persons who have failed to register an opportunity to register; to. have the local officials call to their attentien the- requiréments of the law. After thig opportunity has been extended and refused, failure to reg- ister becomes wilful and will be vig- ilently prosecuted. Paragraph 16 of the registration regulations prescribed by the pres- ident makes it the duty of police of- ficers to see that all male persons between the designated ages have registered. Any police offiecr who refuses to comply with the request of the local registration boards to assist in every way in seeking out those who have not registered, there- by becomes guilty of an infraction of the registration law, apd is him- self liable to arrest and prosecution The registrations now received by the various boards will be in accord with paragraph 40 of the registra- tion regulations. T would like to impress upon the clerks of the various boards the ne- cessity for promptly reporting cases of wilful violations of the registra- tion law. The department of justice ‘has requested that all arrests shall be made by June 30, 1917. Consequent- ly, I would request a prompt report from the various clerks throughout the state of persons who have failed to comply with the registration law. This report should contain the name of the person, his address, occupation, and a brief note as to what effort has been made to get him to register, what his claims for non-registration are ‘based upon, and proof or evidence of his age and his reference. Governor Issues Statement. The local registration board, in common. with others throughout the state, has received the following state- ment fiom the governor: The office of the United States dis- trict attorney and this office have re- ceived from various towns and cities lists of persons whose names appear in the military census but who have not registered under the aelective con- scription law. These lists in this form l [ are of no assistance in securing the’ registration of those who have not voluntarily appeared, because it is im- possible for any central office to in- quire into all cases. Your attention has before this been called to the provisions of section 40 of the registration regulations which make it the duty of your board to use every reasonable effort to find persons who have failed to register voluntarily and to secure their registration or re- port their names for prosecution; and also to the provisions of section 16 of thase regulations which make it the duty of all police officers to give every assistance in the congummation of the registration. These provisions are not empty words, but impose duties which, on the one hand, should appeal to your patriotism, and, on the other, will subject any person failing in them to the penalties of the law. ‘The neglect of any man to register increases the burden upon those who do appear; every effort should there- fore be made to reach all persons who ought to register dut who have not done so. Under the terms of the telegram, a copy of which is given in another letter you may st{ll take the registration of those persons who have failed before this to appear; but in case of a willful and continued re- | tusal to register, the fact should be at Noon, From July 13 to Sept..14, Inclusive ter All Has een Said and Done After you've compared carefully, then you'll say that the best Suit. values in Hartford—yes and in all Connecticut are at Hollanders.’ That's why we're having such a remarksble season on Suits At $18, $20,$22 04 $25 These are liberal offerings indeed—in quality, style and variety. .

A compliance with this duty re- quires that your board should itself || examine into every case where a fail. ure to register s suspected. And the faithful performance of that duty by every registration ‘board in the state is the only way to make the regis- tration complete and accurate. arcus H. Holcomb, or. U. §. HAS 4,622,000 FROM ENEMY LANDS Natives of Germany Lead With 2,849,000 Population ‘Washington, D. C.,, June 22.—The | natives of Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey now residing in the United States aggregate approxi- mately 4,662,000, or about 4% per cent of the total population of the country. The foregoing total is announced by Director Sam. L. Rogers of the bureau of the census, department of com- merce, as the result of a calculation based on the census figures of 1910, the reports of the bureau of immigra- tion for the period between 1910 and the present time, and the estimated mortality during' that period. Al- though it is not possible by this meth- od to determine with absolute exact- nees the number of natives of the countries named now living in the United States, it is believed that the results obtained represent a reaspna- bly close approximation to the facts. These 4,662,000 foreigners are dis- tributéd, according to country of birth, as follows: Germany . Austria . Hungary SO Turkey . 188,000 Bulgaria 11,000 It is impossible to say whethér the proportions of aliens—that is, persons who have not applied for naturaliza- tion certificates—among these for- eigners are approximately the same in 1917 as they were in 1910; but, as- suming this to be the case, the num- ber of male aliens 21 years of age and over included in the above total would be approximately 964,000, or about 3.2 per cent of the total num- ber of male inhabitants of the United States 21 years of age and over.
