Some of tho wheels creaked and groaned at times, but then it was a new and untried mechanism. In the main it did its work well. Before the afternoon was half over, indications were that the city would effect virtually a 100 per cent enrollment of its male population of ages from twenty-one to thirty, inclusive. The polls opened at 7 o'clock. They are to close at 0 p. m. So, at 2 o'clock, the day was half gone. And it was estimated that the work was just about half done. The registration machine had webbed out its product at n steady, con sistent pace. Estimates based on Government census returns indicate that Philadelphia has 169,000 residents who must register today. This would require an average output of 12,000 an hour for tho fourteen hours registrars are on duty. The average wn: kept no with regularity as far as a survey of the city revealed, hour after hour. The 2 30 o'clock estimate was that 90 000 men had been enrolled Just about half of the Phlladelphlan of conscription age are married, Govern ment census men show. Disorder was totally absent There were no arrests Exemption clalfs were few and far be tween, taking the city as whole. Fa.r weather was undoubtedly a factor In hrlnglng out In the early hours so large n proportion of the total Delays were frequent, necessitated by the awkwardness of registrars unaccustomed to the work they had to do In some divisions a man was lucky if ho got hli blue receipt card after twelve or fifteen minutes of struggling effort on the part of the registra tion clerk GO EAP.LT TO POLLS Men began to go to the polls soon after they opened Instances where men waited lor me ppua io open were lew .Many reg istrars were late Some were not provided with writing materials when they arrived In most parts of the city pleas for ex emption were comparatively few Question 12, which Inquires -whether the registrant claims exemption, need not bn answered, under a Government ruling Few answered It In Kensington there were more cases of men answering the question and clalm Ing exemption than In any other section reported In the early hours There Is no excuse whatsoever for neg lecting this national duty. Men whu are away from home must reglstei where they are The sick must notify the registrars In their respective election divisions, and deputies will be sent to take down their data. QUITTKP.S AUi: WATCHED L'very person known to have voiced enmity to the conscription plan was under observation of Federal agents .irly today. This surveillance will be Maintained throughout the day. If any of these men have failed to register when the polls closo at 9 o'clock they will be arrested Im mediately. Plots have been broken up as fast as they cropped out, and Government agents were optimistic. They believe that tho number of men who do not register will be negligible. Claims for exemption on tho ground of "conscientious objection ' to war In gen eral and conscription la particular wero filed by some radicals In the city, hut, their number was too slight to ho considered In the grand total of thousands There was an air of gayety among the men They were Imbued with patriotic spirit. They did not to their duty grudg ingly WOMEN HELr Women folk of the oung men were much in evidence. They were up early to remind their sons and husbands and brothers of their duty In some cases they led the men to the polls. Early In the morning a few Instances weie reported' qf wives who went with their husbands to the registration plaies. accom panied by their children, as visible proof that there were dependents who might bar dratted men from bervlce In the Eastern State Penitentiary.
