Release of Conscientious Objectors in Wartime
The Selective Service Act is off the books but about 1000 conscientious objectors remain jailed for refusing war service. In May, on V E Day’s first anniversary, jailings were 2600. President Truman sought blanket amnesty as Wilson did after WWI. By last December a special Roberts Commission reviewed draft convictions and roughly 200 COs had been freed. Jehovah’s Witnesses dominate the remaining cases amid wartime to peacetime shifts.
