They ave: To force more men into useful war time occupations, ‘Yo create positions for wounded soldiers invalided home, the number increasing as the war goes on, And to encourage the employment of women and older men for the easier Jobs How many men in this city will be affected he was not in a position to say. It is estimated, however, that in the State of New York there are several hundred thousand men of draft age who have been exempted on account of dependents, who will come} under the new ruling.
