SECRETARY IS

DISSATISFIED WITH SYSTEM Government to Do Classifying Rather Than Leaving It to Registrant—Boys Will be Deferred. WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.— New draft regulations under which the government would do the classifying rather than leaving it to the registrant, are under consideration by tne war department. This was disclosed today by Sec'y Baker after he had appeared before the senate military committee to urge prompt enactment of the new selective service act, extending the age limits to include all men between the ages of 18 and 45. The war secretary made it plain that he is not satisfied with the present system under which the registrant must claim deferred classification, as many men with dependents hesitate for patriotic reasons to make such a claim. In this connection, Mr. Baker said he was inclined to the opinion that the marriage relation will in itself constitute deferred classification. What Mr. Baker has in miiui is to lay down a set of question which the registrant would an swer and then have rules whicl would take care of the classified tion. He is understood to regard thi as the fair and equitable system. The discussion on the dr.aft ages before the senate committee, Mr. Faker said, followed much the line.taken hy Gen. March. chief of tat'f. and Provost Marshal Gen. f rowder. The committee, h added, did not indicate any disposition to question the necessity for the change, which is urged so that th war department can quickly secure the men necessary to win the war. Work or right Order. "There was some dicuss.on." Mr. Maker said, 'as to whether it was the intention of The department to extend the work or right order to include classes of pi"fnns in various professional occupations. I tod them there was n prsnt change nf th work or fight order in contemplation. I said that when I decided the baseball case I Though' perhaps other forms of amusement and entertainment micht require an extension of the order to be on a paritv with the baseball situation but that vvas not in their mind. "They had heard from outride sources that the department was considering bringing professional classes. like lawyers. newspaper men and persons who were not actually encasred in producing vs-ar supplies under the order. "Th committee." Mr. Rakr continued, "was especially Interested in the effect of th extension of th draft aces on colleges and also in the question as to whe'her younc men from Is up would h drawn indiscriminately in cla? one or placed in a deferred class by age and drawn later, giving them som added months to come to maturity. "I toM the committee." said the war scrnrv. "that no fixed policy had hn dtrmined upon y th department hut that ThA purpose was to allow the president to defer in class one The call nf the youncesT men.
