. With the touting of whistles and ringing of bells, the taking of the
registration for conscription began at 7 o’clock this morning. Long
before the registration booths opened, young men between the ages of
conscription, 21 years to 30 years, were lined up in each of the three
registration places, Council Room, City Hall in the Second District;
{l‘own Assembly Hall in the First, and Mayflower firehouse in the
[Third waiting patiently to be registered. Armed Auxiliary Police and
Home Guards. together with the regular police, under the direction of
Chief William R. Pennington, carefully guarded each of the booths.
No trouble resulted this morning. and there is no anticipation of any
during the rest of the day. The most rigid precautions are being taken
in order that none shall result. By noontirne today it is estimated that
more than onehali” of the men between the required ages will have
registered. ‘
With the increase in draft'from 900,000 men of the 10,000,000
~i—~
whom it is estimated will be registered today, the quota for which
Nurwalk is liable will also increase from about 175 to 325, about twice
as many as was at first planned. This will decrease the chances of es-
caping the draft from one in eight to about one in two, or in other
worth about one-half of those of eligible age will be drawn on the
first call, instead of one-fifth of the 650 who are between the pre-
scribed ages and without dependents.
