Atlanta, Ga., Aug.—Georgia has
topped the lilt of states on food co
operation record several times since
the war started. It continue!, as
state, to do so. Georgia is on a dead
level with- her sugar score, she has
kept good faith with the country.
Georgia, therefore, will get a clear
September allotment when the time
comes without delay. Some of the
states will not. New York, for in
stance, has lived ahead of the game—
the August limit has been gone ovei.
The result will be deduction in Sep
tember of the August excess and the
control board says "no appeal.”

Atlanta, Ga., Aug.—While several
thousand Georgians just turned twen
ty-one, flocked to local boards Satur
day to enroll themselves as' available
for the army of the United States,
machinery was set in motion for the
greatest registration of history.
All over Georgia local boards, as
they finished the comparatively small
registration of the 24th, turned their
attention to the intricate details of
tho vast plan under which upwards of
Sop,000 Georgia men will register
early in September.

and there is no sign of immediate re
lief. The beet supply will not begin
moving for another month and it will
probably be November before any re
lief is possible. The United States
Food Administration issued notice
that the reduced August figures must
stand for September, and that there
was no use for individual pleadings
and appeals for revision. Also there
is no place for new business in the re
stricted program. The enforced con
servation of sugar has*increased the
temptotion to profit upon those eager
to obtain more than the small but
sufficient quantity permitted. The
public, however, is in this case amply
able to protect itself by merely
operating with the Food Administra
tion. Because Mr. Hoover’s depart
ment is represented on the interna
tional committee, which is the largest
purchaser of sugar in the world, it is
regulate prices and profit
:f actory to the table. Retail

far greater even than that of 1917
will be worked out as soon as possible.
Registrars will bo selected, regis
tration places decided upon and the
entlrep lan completed so that Georgia
will be in absolute readiness to set
the wheels of registration in motion
ifiupofiiateiy after President Wilson
issues his proclamation calling upon
millions of Americans to become po
tential soldiers.
The situation is urgent because by
October 1, Class 1, under tho age lim-
of theoriginai art, will have been
entirely exhausted. Unless there is
bo a Berious interruption in the
flow of American troops to the camps
and thence across the seas to France,
Glass One must be replenished at tho
earliest possible moment by available
men both below and above the pres
ent age limit of 21 to 81. There is,
literally, no time to bo lost.
In the perfection and execution of
registration plans not only will
draft boards he employed, but
governor, mayors, city clerks, various
county authorities and patriotic cit
izens generally will be called upon to
take part. 1
The first step in the registration
plans has been the appointment by
tho Selective Service Law Officer of
Chairmen of central registration
committees which will be organized
in every city of over 30,000 popula
tion.
W. L. McCalley, of division six,
will head the Atlanta committco; D,
(}. Fogarty, division one, tile Augusta
committee; Walter T. Johnson, of di
vision two the Macon committee and
Thomas F. Walsh, Jr., of division two,
the Savannah committee.
Under the direction of these chair
men the local boards of these cities
will meet and select a central com
mittee whose duty it will be to coor
dinate and supervise generally
plans for tho registration in their
spcctive communities.
The governor will supervise the ex
ecution of the registration and the
draft executive will be the central ad
ministrative authority. Local boards
will have immediate supervision
their respective jurisdiction.
There wll be at least one registra
tion place for each voting precinct,
and for each probable eighty regis
trants one registrar will he appointed,
in the patriotic duty of serving
registrars citizens generally arc <
pectcd to volunteer to serve without
compensation. Many of these will be
needed b7 all local boards and loyal
citizens generally should immediate
ly proffer their services so that the
plans may be completed without de-
lay. Where a registrant claims com
pensation he will be paid four dollars.
As in previous registrations it is an
ticipated that registration places will
bo secured without difficulty through
the cooperation of building owners,
and other*. The responsibility of se
curing registration offices will rest
upon local boards who will be assist
ed by various officials.
Without information as to age lim
its, there can be no exact basis for an
estimate of the number who will reg
ister. Preparations are being con
summated for. 300,000, the assump
tion that the September registration
will be one-third greater than that of
1917. In Georgia 232,537 registered
in 1917, so tho new registration will
certainly go beyond 300,000. Regis
tration facilities will be sufficient,
however, to meet any eventuality.
The sick will berogistored by agent,
felons will be registered by prison
wardens and persons awaiting trial
by jailors.
It is especially desired that patriot
ic citizens generally offer their serv-
as registrars to the local boards
in whose jurisdiction they reside,
the registration of 1917, not a man in
Georgia Baked for compensation, and
those administering the regulations
in the State, confidently expected
Georgia to set such a record again
with the aid of loyal volunteers.
Further details, such as names of
registrars, places of registration, etc.,
are to be announced later. The date
for the registration will be fixed by a
proclamation of the President.
