Draft deferments top one million as war industry roles rise
More than a million single men aged 18 to 37 hold deferments under 2-A 2-B and 2-C classes for civilian and agricultural wartime work. Local boards must review these exemptions within six months as replacements appear from nondeferable roles and family men. A House measure seeks priority for fathers with dependents in induction, outlining groups by dependency and barring higher groups while lower ones are available.
