eral service men in Class 1 registered
before September 12, 1918. are eligible

equivalent, and be in attendance at one
of the institutions maintaining an S.

Class 1 who registered under the first
draft law (i. e., before September 12.
1918) are eliyible to induction into a
collegiate unit of the S. A. T. C. but
men already inducted into or called for

trants of the new draft ages who have
had a grammar school course or its
equivalent are eligible for induction
into these units. Induction will ordi
narily be sought, however, only through
the local draft board of the registrant
and not through the institution at

ments of the service permit.

continued, it is only by voluntary in
duction that a registrant may enter any
branch of the army.
All persons in Nevada seeking to en

passenger service for the administra

cent passenger rate on the Federal
operated lines in Nevada in lieu of the
present 4 and 5 cent fares. 1 was in
formed by the director, just before
leaving Washington, that the investiga-
operating to the north of Nevada the
Union Pacific, Northern Pacific, Great
Northern and the .Milwaukee railways
all have a 3 cent fare which has been
observed for some years past. I feel
that there is good reason to believe that
a 3 cent fare may be established on
