Guardsmen Not Always Exempt In Pennsylvania News
Harrisburg reports that even with draft exemptions for farm laborers due to June 1 registration, guardsmen cannot claim discharge for helping on the farm or recent marriage. Adjutant General Stewart maintains that marriages do not strengthen pleas. A rural guardsman and his wife soon face separation. The Insurance Committee will hold a public hearing Tuesday on over twenty bills, with three already to the Governor on fire insurance, farm land bonds, and life income exemptions. The Lohr bill to reorganize the Agriculture Department would shift appointment power to the Governor with a county board of agriculture representation.
