Selective Service
Makes New Call
Fon Non-Fathers
JUNEAU, Aug. 7, —John L. Mc
| Cormic.A, Territorial Director of
Selective Service, announced to
day that since the induction of
18 year old registrants is now pro
hibited by law, and the num
of non-fathers available in the
19 through 25 age group is very
small, it is now necessary to pro
cess for induction non-fathers in
the age group 26 through 29 in
order to meet the call placed on
Alaska Boards.
Mr. McCormick further stated
that all employers who are now
employing registrants between the
ages of 19 and 29 inclusively,
should submit deferment requests
to the registrants’ local boards
if they think deforment should
be granted. This process is ne
cessary in order that local boards
will have current information.
DSS Forms 42A Special (Revised*
will be used for making all re
quests for the occupational de
ferment. including agriculture, of
registrants ages 19 through 29. |
This form may be obtained from
any local Selective Service Board
or from Territorial Headquarters,1
Box 2691, Juneau.
Deferment requests are not ne
cessary for registrants with one
or more children 'The term child
ren shall include legitimate or
illegitimate children from the
date of their conception, children
legally adopted, stepchildren, fos
ter children.). A registrant should
submit proof of an expected child
by obtaining a doctor's affadavit
to that effect. This affidavit
should be forwarded to the regis
trant's own local board, otherwise
without this information he would
probably be processed for induc
tion.
It is very important that the
employer and the registrant sub
mit the above information to lo- i
cal boards immediately.
Local boards are being instruct- j
ed to proceed with the reclassi-;
fication and processing of all non
father registrants between the
ages of 19 and 29 years.
