GUARD STATUS CLARIFIED
A news release was recei
ved this week from the head
quarters of the Alaska .Na
tional Guard which in part
clears up the status of Guards
men who enlist before reach”
ing the age of 18 1/2 and who
are deferred under the terns
of Governor Heintsleman’s
proclamation of May 2?, 1954.
The release auoted a letter
received by General Noyes from
Major.General Edgar C. Erick
son, Chief of the National
Guard Rureau in Washington.
"a conflict exists between
the position of the Depart
ment of Defensej agreed to by
the National Guard Rureau, and
the Selective Service System”
states General Noyes. "The
view of the Department of De
fense is that a Guardsman
deferred pursuant to the pro
clamation will fulfill and
entirely satisfy his $ years
reserve obligation by corres'
ponding satisfactory service
in the .National Guard,but the
Selective Service System con
tends that all Guardsmen who
enlisted after Feb. I, 1951
and have deferments, remain
liable under the law for in
duction’ until age 35.”
Undoubtedly further legis
lation will be required to
clarify the discrepancies in
these posilions,General Noyes
said Since the whole status
of reserve obligations is un
der study, it is probable
that a national agreement will
be reached as to required
legislation in the near fu
ture. Meanwhile, there is
little probability that any
National Guardsman who en
listed under the ageof 18 1 y2
pursuant to the Governor’s
proclamation permitting de
ferment and who continues to
serve satisfactorily will be
inducted, as his deferment
will continue unti1 he reaches
the age of 28 in 1958 or
later.
