Local Aliens Uneasy. Many aliens here are much perturb- ed over the possibility that the con- gress now in session is likely to pass the bill under which it {s provided that aliens of the ages being accept- ed for military service will be forced cither to énlist here or be turned over to their own governments for service under their national flags. This pro- posed measure* is one that gets v general suppor: here and in. towns hereabouts where the alien pop- ulation is Néavy. There isn't a logi- cal reason in the world, it is held, why aliens of military service age should be allowed to remain in peace and comfort here while the young men of this country and of their.own coun- tries are fighting against - Teutonic despotism. But many of the aliens do not like the prospect they are facing and are :f::ng tm’rt'y wny-' t::m how to aveid put Into a un: t ito “fight. In the ‘past: nmm have said that 'théy would ficht for their home country, but not for the United States. The day now seems near. at hand when they will be given the opportunity to make. their choice.

ANSWERS WASHINGTON QUESTIONS Local Exemption Board Aids In Point- ing Out Defects in Draft Process. In response to a request from _the ‘PPovost marshdl general's office, at ‘Washington, there has been compiled at the office of the. local exemption board a series of answers to questions sent out by the Washington office, ' these questions and the answers there- to- intended to bring to light defect: in the workimg out of the draft pro- cesses. as shown by the experience ot the past few months. i All of the answers. that are going forward are clear and frank and they | contain recommendations for changes | that undoubtedly would rdo away with some of the difficulties that have | been encountered in the past. ¢ For instance, the attention of the | provost marshal general's office is di- | Tected to the fact that the old regula- tions require that a registrant who is | frrat.- -by -one - physician —and, ‘upon ~ reexamination, accepted by"| another physician must be sent to a cantonment for examination by a fed- eral physician. It has been the experi- ence in this district that in every case where there has been a disagrec- meént between the local board’s physi- cians as to a man’s fitness and he has been sent to Camp Devens he has later ~ been there and has returned. tion might be given local boards in ing of re-examination cases. \ Another point on which a change is recommended is the regulation rela- tive to the condition of teeth of regis- trants. ese regulations are neither ner elear. Provision for bringing aliens of mili- tary age either into tHe sérvice of the United States or into the service of the allied countriés from which they ‘come is also recommended. A _recommendation of special inter- est has been made relative to remov- ing a method by which a registrant can escape military duty under the rules now operative. . For obvjous reasons, just how a man escape be set Middle Aged - Women. Are Here Told the Best Remedy for Their Troubles.

Y e down here, but there is a way, never- theless, and a decommendation has been made to remove the loophole. One of the drastic recommendations made is the abolishment of district boards, chiefly on the ground that the members of such boards cannot possibly in the brief time in which they have to pass upon so many cases learn as much about the individ- ual concerned as a local board. This matter is treated at length in the recommendation of the local board which has answered the same set of questions asked of every local board in the country. Plans of Junior Chautauqua.
