DESIRES 10 EXEMPT War Department Will Adopt This .Military Policy on Conwription. tPti thr International Srtrt Rerrtrr.l W ASHINGTON, May 19 "The war Jopartment desires at the outset to exempt from military service, as far as possible, all those having dependents." This will bo the military policy of tho government on conscription, according to a statement today by the Council of National Defense. The statement was mude after consultation with Buker in answer submitted to the council at the recent conference of governors. The council had bien asked if the government would care for dependents of doctors nf others sent abroad for service as civilians or attached to some branch of the service of the allies. The complete policy has not yet been foimulated, the council replied. The war department realizes thst all ! those with dependents cannot be ex-1 empted, and accordingly has asked congress for an appropriation to take I fare of those left behind. Doctors will be ranked as army officers, the coun-1 cil explained, and the war department believes their pay will bo sufficient to care for their dependents. Another question asked was, will the government assist in protecting j property of military value? The coun- j cil today replied that fiuch protection was considered the function of the states, but In cases where military aid was required of the govemient such aid would be given. GIVEN A DIVORCE.
