MATTERS INTERESTING WESTERLY Summarization of Entire First Draft Ordered for State—Real Estate Transfers—Registrants Who Failed to Respond— Canvassers for Y. M. C. A. Secure $2,923.75. Colonel George H. Webb, director of the draft for Rhode Isiahd, announces that a summarization of the entire first draft in the state has been ordered by the provost marshal general. This classification will include a statistical analysis of the domestic and occupa- tional status of every registrant who has not been called for examination, and will be made by districts. Accord- ing to Colonel Webb, some draft offi- cials believe that the summary is wanted by the war departnfent to de- termine the praeticability of the classification system and to perfect it. With the information available from each state concerning the prdbable class into which the remaining regis- trants will fall, it will be possible to conclude beforehand whether the classification® plan will operate suc- cessfully. Theoretically. the war de- partment has approved it. Many objections to the plan have been raised. however. It is pointed out that, whereas some districts may ‘ob- tain their quota from the first class, for example, others may have to go down to the third or fourth class. The actual classification, it is anticipated, will entail serious difficulties, if hard and fest rules are drawn. “Each case must be decided on its own merits,” a draft official said yesterday. “No two are alike. To attempt to draw sharp distinctions will probably be far more difficult than procedure under the old tem.” sys! The summary will be compiled from selection and district board records and from registration cards, and when completed will show how many men of any given pursuit are in a district, how many men have dependents, how many are married or single, and their status as to citizenship, nationality and race. It will also show how many men were taken on the first draft from a =iven occupation or of a given status, as well as a total of all the statistical data relating to the operation of the system then used. The summary sheets, prepared in Washington and received yesterday, divided occupations into 30 classes, which include every conceivable calling. Colonel Webb be- lieves that the summary will be com- pleted for the provost marshal's ofice in tén days. Announcement made at Camp Devens Sunday was that Rhode Island would be called upon to send 422 more men to complete the state's quota in camp. This includes the last 15 per cent. of the quota yet to go and also the num- ber of men needed to fill vacancies caused by the rejection of men at the cantonment. Colonel Wehb said yes- terday that the camp estimate is elightly less than the estimate here. This state has 332 men in the last increment of 15 per cent. vet to go, and approximately 125 have been sent back from camp whose places must be filled. In addition, increments were sent to camp short from several districts on Sept. 19 and O®t. 3, which means that the men who should have gone then must be sent as soon as possible. The total, Colonel Webb savs, will be near- er 500 than 422. ? The Camp Devens figures, Colonel Webb believes. must be inaccurately represented as it was reported from the camp that 422 Rhode Islanders have been disquaiified physically. This, however, is obviously an error, as only 125 have been rejected. according to the latest official reports. The 432 is accordingly taken to mean the this state must send, inclusive of the last increment. - Tramp, the best natured dog ever barn and known to almost everybody in Westerly, is dead. The animal was n( thé mongrel species and always ac- knowledged the greetings of friends by a wag of his tail and eyes full of ex- pression. Tramp was never known to do a mean act. On a cold winter night about a dozen years ago the dog stroll- ed into the bagsaze room of the New York, New Haven and Hariford Rail- road company and was the bazgazemen, Edw. the late Murray Gra He was given food and drink, and shakedown was prepared for him near the old stove in the old bagzage room. Thereafter he made the *place his home. moving ‘nto the new baggage room when the tfansfer was made. He was called Tramps when He fizst came to the rail- way station and always responded to that name. welcomed by Pitcher and fhe Weaterly Jave at some time p: Joz on the head. just to see htm wag ais tail and almost smile. Tramp was accustomed to make Jaily calls at certain markets and res taurants and recsived handouts al though there was always amplc 130d ‘or him at home. He seemed to enjoy yis daily visitations and extended his risits to other places about the town. >ut was rarely away from the basgage ‘oom at night. and was about the sta- don at intervals throughout the da. Tramp's hearing became defective as he grew old and he did not hear the tooting of an automobile horn when on - the Pawcatuck bridge and was killed by being struck by an au- tomobile. His back .was broken and Tramp was taken to the place of busi- ness of one of his many friends. To relieve his suffering he was chloro- formed. The recent transfer deeds of real estate_recorded by Town Clerk Ev- erett E. Whipple-are as follows: James A. Cloran to Henry T. Bugbee, lot in Central park; Angela M. Guarino to Carmina Sposato, three lots in Colum- bus park; Lucy Hill to Liugi Dotolo, lot bounded by land of Lucy Hill; John M. Browning to Jane Yuile Lawrence, lot south side Ocean View highway, Watch Hill; Curtis F. Kingsbury to Jane Yuile Lawrence, lot south side Ocean View highway: Jane Yuile Law- rence to C. Bai Lihme et ux., house and six acres south eide Ocean View highway: Lucy Hill to Amodie De Simone et ux., house and lot south side Pierce street; Conrad Schultz to Mar- garet Schultz, lot east side Elm street and lot west side Franklin street: Jo- seph A. Cloran to Frances Niles Tay- lor, three lots in.Central park: estate Albert G. Browh, by administrator, to Domenico Brogno et ux., house and lot west side of Pearl street. Mortgages of $23,900 were recorded in the same period. Three registrants failed to respond to _orders to report examination, before the local board of state dl ion No. 1, last week, and they have been reported to the district board as tech- nical deserters. ~,They are Albert Barsden of Bradford, whom the board vas advised by a reiative was in ser- vice with the British Royal Engineers, and Samuel Raisman, of Westerly, and Michael Turisco, of Narragansett Pier. Of the 97 men examined thirty-two were granted exemption from military service and twenty-three were found rhysically fit. These will make up the fourth and last_increment of. the first draft for the National Army.’ It is presumed that the local board will have to send 19 men from the reserved list to Camp Devens to make up the doficit caused by the discharges from service, but no orders to that effect have been received.
