The spirit which has prompted these gentlemen Is commendable, ac- cording to members of the city board, but. a great deal of trouble! has been created by tlielr failure to comply with the Instructions which i arc a part of these questJonnuil in. 1 In several cases which came to the attention of the local city board Jn which the registrant had secured the services of attorneys In filling out the proper answers of questions of the questionnaire, the Instructions had not been followed and in each of these" cases the j-eglstrant will lose the claim he makes for exemption or It will be necessary for him to reanswer the questions. "These lawyers are not following the Instructions In these cases," declared a member of the local board yesterday, when a quationnalre came to his attention in witlcn several or the questions was Improperly answered and In which no specific claim was made for exemption altho grounds for such were set forth by the registrant.

"These forms are a great deal different from a bill of sale or a mortgage, and should be treated as such," the board member continued. Instructions should be read carefullv. and then should be followed to the; letter. It is a great deal of trouble I and causes a great loss of time and efficient when we are forced to rcmall these blanks to the registrant' in order to secure information which Ishould be contained when they are; 'filled out the first time." The work of the lawyers generally has been a great assistance to the! registrants, but there are many cases ccmlng to the attention of the board members where the lawyers who are diving their time to the work have apparently forgotten the Instructions given them or have failed to adhqre to them. Still Shy On Envelopes.

Members of the local board yes- ittrday were busHy engaged In filing jthe questionnaires which have oeen returned, all of the board members i and the assistants' devoting their time to this until more envelopes fre received from the adjutant general's office. The' lack of envelopes I has on three occasions inti-rferred with the work of the board and until more are received, no more questionnaires can mailed out. One of the largest tasks which con fronts the board members is the classification of the questionnaires once they are all returned, and this will not be possible until all have been sent to the addresses which. In jmany cases have been changed since tne last orders were In one mail received by the board yesterday, there were more than 100 letters and postcards, in which registrants ask that their questionnaire ho mailed to a new address, and, in many of these cases the blanks have been I mailed to the old address and must I now be returned to the local board and redirected. This consumes.no 1 small amount of time and Is slow ing "up the work of the board almost as much as is the lack of envelopes.
