- On that ground. Only the exemption 1 97 3208, Joseph Jones, (Col.)
ooaras can determine toss fact. Gastonia.
Where dependency is claimed and
Circumstances show a marriage has
tily consummated since July 20 by a
' man whose number is high on the
available list, the actual fact of de
pendency must be closely scrutinized.
"Moreover, General Crowder de
clared, "women who marry men mere
IT to aid them to be slackers are lia
ble to prosecution under the drart
act.
In his ruling General Crowder ad-
sered strictly to President Wilson's
draft regulations which draw no dis
tinction between a dependent wife
acquired before or afterbe drawing.
Secretary Baker advocated refusing
exemption toasy man married after
the drawing, saying the draft should
be considered a prior claim but this
. course will not be followed.
Fears of some officials that delay in
obtaining materials and sufficient la
bor for national army cantonments
would postpone the mobilization
were dissipated today by an an
nouncement by Secretary Baker that
78 per cent of the cantonment mate
rials are now on the ground and that
reports indicate everything will be in
readiness or nearly so in another
month.
'o definite date for mobilization
was ever fixed, but Secretary Baker
baa indicated that every effort would
be made to effect it about Sept. I.
-Frorn all sections of the county
come reports of splendid corn crops.
Many say that tbe crop is the best in
many years. Tbe cotton crop, also,
is much better than was expected
some weeks ago. Tbe recent -rains
