The impression prevails among many members of the congress, however, that it would be unwise to take up this question now. If the war* is long, d< may become necessary to provide for the registration of new classes which reach the military age of the selective service bill each year and oossiblv also to exempt men now registered but who may pass beyond the maximum age limit before the war ends.

RESULT OF EXAMINATION OF DRAFTED MEN IN THE STATE
SHELBY COUNTY. (hpeclal to Th* Indianapolis Newxl SHELBY VILLE, Ind., August 29.Preperations are being made here by the local conecriptlon board to Iseue a call for a Nicest fifty more men to appear for physical examinations. It was believed the quota of 124 men would be obtained from thoee already ordered to appear, but it la now almost a certainty that the number will be far short of the total required. Sixty men were examined Tueeday and thirty will appear Thursday. Adam B. Welnttaut, of Waldron, was one of the men accepted here for aervlce Tuesday evening. He had been di»f barged from Battery E, of the Indiana artillery, Monday, becauae of a physical defect. The local physicians examined him carefully hnd decided that he * was fit for service. Hi* arm waa bandaged wh«r« he had recently been vaccinated against typhoid Walter Barnard Dougtasa, of Flat Rock, a young farmer, brother of Representative Maurice Douglass, was one of tbe men accepted. He is the owner of a lam farm which he manages himself. He filed no claim for ex-
emption.

Commenting on President Wilson’s statement regarding single men, he said: “That is merely the President’s view of the matter. Yet the selective conscription law calls for more than single, otherwise ft would not be necessary to go to all the expense and trouble to examine men with dependents, especially married men. An instance was given where a young man and his father had filed affidavit that he was the sole support of aged parents who, it was learned, owned a store and the father had swam 400 yards in a nearby lake and that they ow-ned an automobile in which they took long trips every Sunday. If that man is exempted by the local board, he and his father can expect to spend the next year or two of their lives in federal prison. Government laws can not be tampered with in
that manner.”
