Washington reports the new draft act approved by Congress and awaiting President Truman's signature.

It lists exemptions, including ministers, unfit individuals, certain aliens, officials, surviving relatives, conscientious objectors, in-service personnel, and veterans, plus deferment categories and appeals processes.
