CITY QUOTAS MAY BE REVISED;

Change in Allotment Likely,
Clinton Rogers Wood
ruff Announces
TO GIVE RECRUIT CREDIT
Cpmplete revision of draft quotas for the
fifty-one Philadelphia districts will be or
dered within a few days, in the opinion of
the exemption boards.
Dissatisfaction in various sections of the
city concerning tho method by which the
district quotas were fixed has forced the
State military officials to give the protests
serious attention That these officials are
ready to revise the quotas and gfvoyeach
district Its full credit for the number of
men already In tho service was learned from
a city official who has been active in the
work of pressing the city's claim for a
more equitable Bystem of drafting con
scripts. That this action Is necessary In order to
comply with the draft laws Is the opinion
of Clinton Rogers Woodruff, an attorney,
chairman of tho Sixth District exemption
board.
"Each district In the city should receive
credit for the number of men recruited In
the national servlco since the outbreak of
war," said Sir. Woodruff today. "In many
districts this system would reduce the
quotas and In a few Instances virtually
eliminate them. Personally 1 fear that
complications will arise unless this matter
is adjusted, for It is plain that any man
draftjd can refuse servlco on the ground
that the .district in which he is listed has
furnished Its full quota.
"Let us assume that a district has been
given a quota of 350 and that one of the
conscripts who is No. 300 on the list of
accepted men raises an objection concerning
his eligibility. If he can show that his
district has not been given full credit for
the number of men already In the service
and that the extension of such credit would
reduce the quota of that district to a point
below 300 he would be in a position to
make trouble. As I understand, the draft
law provides that each district shall be
given credit for the men enlisted "
Congressmen Costello and Vare carried
the Issue to Washington and are confident
that the WaV Department will force the
State military officials to act In the matter
Immediately.
