an employe of the Bloedel Donovan

factory explanation to the Skagit ex
emption board; He registered at both
Bellingham and Mount Vernon and
supposed the two registration offices
had communicated with each oilier.
Ohse reported to the Bellingham ex
emption board but failed to notify the
Skagit exemption board. This office,
having no report, gave his name in as
one who had failed to report. Mr. Ohse
is a Frenchman and is anxious to be
known as one who is willing to go
when his countrymen need him, and
desires that this correction be made.
