June Draft Quota Estimate Sparks Local Debate
Local exemption board members say they lack exact data to set June quotas for Hutte and Silver Bow counties. A tentative city draw of about 270 men and county total near 100 are suggested, based on May figures. Delays at the war department may reduce quotas when latest enlistments are reported, with past drafts allocating 10 percent to Tutte and 4 percent to Silver Bow of Montana's share. Class 1 men are largely already in the army, and June timing remains unsettled.
