gees a LE RES ‘ES ~ Rush Swamps, Registrars & 400,000 REGISTER RSTDAY INSTATE MILITARY CENSUS 44 ** Many Sections, but There Is Little Disorder. The taking of the New York State mifitary census and inventory of “war strength and resources slowed up in the morning hours to-day be- cause the unexpected rush of aypll- cants for enrollment yesterday ex- havsted the visiblo supply of blanks, }ecertificates and notices of Mability to military service to the State. * On the desk of BE. P. Goodrich,' 4irector of the city enrollment, to-| | day were sheafs of telegrams ing for renewed supplies of blanks ‘and more volunteer clerks, In many instances census agents went to other | wensus stations and requisitioned Blanks from those who had a sur-| ‘plus. The total registration of yesterday was estimated from the figures at hand at 300,000, The total for to-day is expected to be nearly as large. Police Commissioner Woods, after favestigating the complaints o! women enumerators at stations in ctowded tenement districts that the ‘police allowed curious crowds to over- run the stations and tangle up the work, ordered a larger atteridance of police and more vigilance in keeping the stations open for business, Much delay is caused because per- sons seeking to enroll have ignored the injunction that they make sure they know the number of their As-| sembly District when they apply for enrollment outside of that district. Aaven the enumerators forget to re- quire this information, and as a re- sult thousands of blanks must be re- ferred to the experts of the Bureau of Elections, already overburdened with canvassing the results of the * Federal selective draft registration. At noon it was announced that half a million blanks @iad been procured from the State Printer and there would be an adequate supply from now on in all the all-day places and Jn all the schoolhouses in which sta- Hons are opened after school hours. ‘Che big station at No, 4 Warren Street, opened to relieve the head- quarters of the pressure of individual applications, was closed until noon for lack of blanks. ‘John B. Creighton, in charge of the registration in Brooklyn, an- nounced that 100,000 registered there ‘yesterday despite a shortage of sup- plies. Ths morning registrars went to the waterfront to enroll the mem- bers of the crew of a steamer about to sail for Europe and which will not return for about two months, An- other party set out for Barren Island to enroll the workers in the various incinerator plants. Contrary to expectations, few women objected to telling their ages. ‘This prompted Mrs. John Blair, Chairman of the Publicity Committee of the New York State Woman Suf- frage Party, who is captaining at No. 1118 Lexington Avenue, to say: “Let the stupid bromide be wiped out now and forever by the proved willingness of the women of this tate freely and unblushingly to tell their ages to the registrar, a Thus far, the chief trouble is over the exemption feature of the census, try to Xover up G@mplexion! clariz | with EXEMPTION QUESTION MUST BE ANSWERED WITH FULL DETAILS ALBANY, June 12.—1n the State military census the State authorl- tea are particularly anxious to get answers to tho question: “Do you claim exemption from military spr- vico?” | | | | DIGCERS IN CELLAR 4 This announcement was made by the Resource Mobilization Bureau to-day, although the Fed- eral authorities ruled it was not necessary for men enrolling under the Federal draft to answer that question.

Twenty-five thousand addi- tional recruits are desired at the earliest practicable date to fill vacan- cies in order that the war strength of 300,000 men may be maintained, “Facilities are in readingss for placing these seventy thousand men under proper training. Any delay én obtaining this number will necessarily cause the loss of invaluable time, “It is the earnest desire of the War Department that 70,000 single men, between the ages of eighteen and forty, who have no dependents and who are not engaged in pro- feasions, businesses or trades vitally necessary to the prosecution of the war, be enlisted in the Regular Army before the 30th of June, 1917.” The total of volunteers recruited for the Regular Army reached 112,653 yesterday, when 1,927 men were added.
