STOMACH TROUBLE
Mr. Marion Holcomb, of Nancy, Ky„ says: “For quite
a long while I suffered with stomach trouble. 1 would
have pains and a heavy feeling after my meals, a most
disagreeable taste in my mouth. If I ate anything with
butter, oil or grease, 1 would spit it up. I began to have
regular sick headache. I had used pills and tablets, but
after a course of these, I would be constipated. It just
seemed to tear my stomach all up. 1 found they were
no good at all for my trouble. I heard

Atlanta, Ga,—Georgia’s net current
quota under the new selective serv
ice 'regulations, effective June 1 is
17',395 men, according to announce
ment made Monday by Major Joel B.
Mallett in charge of the selective serv
ice in. this state.
This quota was arrived at by the
following method of calculation:
On May 1 the local boards of Geor
gia reported a total of 25,659 fighting
men in class 1, exclusive of delin
quent men in the emergency fleet serv
ice. Men held for limited service men
placed in rcmdiable defect groups,
men previously inducted, men with
cases pending before medical boards
and district appeal boards, and men
not physically examined.
Taking 00 per cent of the 25,659
figKtlng men, so as to allow for an un
anticipated shrinkage of 20 per cent
and subtracting the number of men
who have gone into the service since
May i, leaves an et balance of 17,395,
which is Georgia’s Aet current quota.
These are the men who will be call
ed into service to supply Georgia’s ap
portionment of then ext levies. When
they will be called depends on the
needs of the war department At
present 8,000 of them have been call
ed in the period from June 19 to 29.
The apportionment of Georgia’s net I
current quota (17,395) among the j
several counties has been made by!
Major Mallet and notices sent out
Monday to the various local boards.
The plan of the war department is
to replenish class 1 by rounding up
delinquents and going over the lists
again. Then at a later date, probably
three months hence a new quota will
be calculated after the replenishing
process has been completed. From thip
time on the current quota will prob
ably be announced every three months
To replenish class 1 the following
steps will be taken: By settling all
pending cases, of which there are 12,-
000 in Georgia; by the registration
on June 5, when Georgia is expected
to register 25,000 men who will im-
mediately be classified; by apprehend
ing delinquehts; by re-examining all
doubtful classifications; by re-exam
ining men previously placed in limit
ed service; by appealing to doctors to
correct remedial defects; by scrutiniz.
