W. W. or who could not account for their pres- ence in a satisfactory manner. Armed men went through rooming houses and restaurants questioning everyone.

There are 1.300 exemption districts. When the first number is drawn—say No. 10, it will be recorded at No. i, with the seria’ number (10) following. The record would show that the men whose cards bear the serial No. 10 in each of 4,500 exemption districts wou be first to appear before the exemption boards.
