"I have not the slightest hesitation ie
in predicting the absolute success of *
the classification system. Prom every
part of the country has come praise
for the plan. It will provide armies itin
a steady stream; armies built from
the body politic by the body politic.
"Never before in the history of the
world have armies been chosen with j?
the scientific precision of the new
svstem. Men will shouhler the p-nn
first who should by all the laws of Ik
reason offer themselves first to their |S
country and only grim necessity will
compel us to invade the more deferred |t,'
classes; but if such necessitv does ?
1 I to
arise, it will find the country ready. 15
Legal Advisory Board. T;
"Through the governors of the Stat- jt-j
?s a legal advisory board, to assist rJ
egistrants to make intelligent tinsswers
of their questionnaires, has
' ern assigned to every local board; iu;<
*
through the same agencies tin 'ea<lc:'?
?n medicine in every commf-*-V have ik:i
pledged themselves to aid and assist
in medical examinations. The great !{5<
majority of the men who are building ,t-<
the new system have offered their j ,
. ervlces without price to the govern-i r-<
Vacnt.
"The completion of the classification
will practically complete th<*
j real work of the local and district
yards. Thereaf ter they will act each r-<
in their respective areas as the gov- ?
crnmont's agents for any new registraiion
which ir.ay occur and will con- ;**.
sider changes of status or transfers
of jurisdiction when such may arise."
