SATURDAY, JULY 2*. 1917.
DRAITWORK
HERE IS AT
STANDSTILL
Hoards Can’t Act Till
Official last of Num
bers Arrive
NVvV rmnpUcatiuoa have arisen tn
dfla> th** .start of the drafting of
la*t»olt's quota national army
of ronarrfrta and there Is no telling
Just how *oon the actual work, can
hr started. Altho the government
rspectrd many of the men drawn In
Ihr lottery would have been accept
ed or rejected before this no -tart
has been mad*- on the work and thla
tinte It seetna to be the fault of the
government.
Fridav afternoon none of the lor-a!
exemption boards had received *h*-
official lists of numbers drawn They
could not proceed on the* lists pub
lished in the newspapers, and there
was nothing for them to do hut
mark time until th* government get
the lists in their Minds The tin
official list* with nano -and nddres
e* made up by the city clerk and hi#
staff have* bon distributed, but the
boards cannot work on these until
they have checked them ov»*r with
the official figures
A telegram from 1 insing Friday
afternoon sta'*-d tfiat th* official
lists had been received from
ington and that they would be mail
ed to the district boards as oon a
possible This makes it almost r» r
tain that th**r*» will he* no notice
sent out before Monday iftortiing r*s
It Is not llkeh the board* will re
reive lists in Mmo to aecomplisb am
thfrig along this line on Saturday
Another cause for confusion is the
fact that th** government ha« mixed
up the numbers of the "Detroit dis
trlefs The original numbers stir
rished Mayor Mart were supplied to
C’ltv t’lerk I.indsav for the guidance
of his hoard of statisticians In
wards that were dirlded Into two
districts the southern half of the
ward was numbered lower than the
northern half with the exception of
the Sixteenth and Seventeenth
wards There the order was reversed
the upper end being numbered ahead
of the lower end Now the govern
ment ir following the plan <>f num
bering 'be lower ends Prst. mixing
up the Nineteenth Twentieth. Twen
tr ftr -f and Twentv second dl-trk’ts.
The boards have b**en sworn in
and »oio’a» hav* been allo'e.l a>

Wouldn’t it be a glorious feeling to know you could wander all over this im

shore of the Lake for park purposes, a place where children can romp and play,
tilling their lungs with the pure breezes and building up their bodies with
health and vigor. _ „
