EXEMPTIONS TO
BE HARD TO GAIN
At Best They Will Only Be
Temporary, According to
the Latest Bulings
Out of the mass of letters and tele
grams and the numerous'telephone
queries which have come to the State
Draft Headquarters there Is grow
ing up a well defined Idea of Just
what exemption means and a good
many people who concluded that
once exempted they would be free
have had a rude awakening because
of the study local boards have given
to the general rules and regulations.
An exemption, say the officials here,
is but a temporary thing. A minister,
for instance, is exempted only so
long as he remains connected with
the denomination whose tenets for
bid engaging in war. A layman In
such denomination must get a state
ment as to his church standing from
his pastor.
A still tighter proposition Is that
regarding excnipion of men who
would avoid military service be
cause of agriculture or manufacture
ing or some industry. They have to
swear an.d substantiate, if called
upon, that their continuance In th*
industry 's "necessary to tht main
tenance thereof" and that ho can not
be replaced "without a direct, sub
stantial, material lowa and detriment
fo the adequate and effective opera
tion, certilicates of discharge In such
if he does get by through such a
statement he is liable to be called
up if he turns slacker in prosecuting
the work or turns to another occupa
tion, certificates of discharve In such
cases being issued by the board with
a clause fixing a time limit for them
to run or announcing that the man
can be called at any time.
The provost marshal general's
staff must have worked a long time
on the forms and affidavits demanded
because they cover every conting
ency in daily life, even to applica
tions for a man's discharge from
draft when made by himself because
of his family and where made by a
wife. There are forms for every
conceivable condition. One book con
tains nothing but forms of affidavits
and it is 175 pages from one end to
another.
