Major William G.
Murdock, chief
draft officer for the State have di
rected him to close the establish
ment on that day and every effort is
being bent to finish up the details of
the work. Tons of records, materi
als, supplies and other things are to
be moved from the headquarters to
the State Capitol, trucks of-the State
Arsenal having been requisitioned
to move them.
The headquarters have been lo
cated for over a year In the Board
of Trade building with the building
formerly as & temporary post office
during the reconstruction of the
Federal Building as the storage place
for the millions of forms required
for the operation of the draft. The
original building used was found
much too small.
During the progress of the draft
the headquarters directed the regis
tration of more than a million Penn
sylvanians and issued calls which in
ducted almost a quarter of a million
men into the army, navy or other
branches of national service. Ai?
average of 2,0,00 letters, 500 tele
grams and 500 telephone calls had
to be handled every day and Major
W. G. Murdock and his heads of di
vision were frequently called upon
to work from 12 to 14 hours a day.
During the days when calls were
being made the chief draft -offilcer
was compelled to spend twenty-four
hours at his desk at a stretch.
Since the close of the war the
headquarters staff has been gradu
ally decreased and only about twen
ty-five persons are now employed.
Records a Problem.—Removal of
the State Workmen's Compensation
and Statistical bureaus to the build
ing leased by the State for concen

When the Compensation Bureau
moved it was found that there were
thousands of agreements in compen
sation and other papers ail of which
had to be kept, while the statistical
bureau turned up with almost half
a million records of industrial acci
dents. Immense quantities of other
papers were discovered and the
problem of storage is assuming real
proportions.
Thursday a Holiday—Resolutions
calling upon the Governor to pro
