Flynn, of the Westerly town council, Town Clerk Everett E. Whipple and Dr. Frank C. Pagan, the committee in charge of registration for the selective conscrip- tion in Westerly, attended a meeting of like committees in Providence, on Tuesday, at the state capitol. Instruc- tions were given by Colonel George H. Webb, director of conscription regis- tration, and Charles 'W. Abbott, Jr. the adjutant general of the state. The duties of the committees on registra- tion do not close with registration day, but continue through the conscription period. All details in connection with carrying out the proposes of the act of congress, subject to approval of the governor and adjutant general, are placed under the direction of Colonel ‘Webb. The state has been divided In- to 68 areas and a committee has been appointed for each to carry out such plans as have' been devised by the provi marshal general of the United States through the bureau of regis- tration. This system has been planned for Rhode Island, as there is no county organization, but the system as a Whole corresponds in detail to the svstem that will prevail in other states where county organization exists. General Abbott advocated the broad- est publicity for the work of registra- tion day, emphasizing the fact that June 5 is to be considered a day of opportunity for young men to register their willingness to serve their nation in whatever manner the country may need their services, rather than to |consider that day as a registration day simply for drafting men for mili- tary purposes. The committee appointed for Hop- Kinton: John S. Cole, Edwin R. Allen and Dr. A. B. Briggs: for Charles- town, John C. Tucker, George . C and Dr. Milton DucKworth: for Nar- ragansett. Henry B.
