Childless Married Men To Be Called To Army
Baltimore February 2 Childless married men will be inducted this month to meet a heavier quota. Col Stanwood said the 18 year old group registered in December was small and could be absorbed within four to five weeks if deferments were granted. Married men with children born after September 14 would get no extra consideration. He noted dependents acquired after Pearl Harbor were voluntarily acquired. The Selective Service order inducting men for Army Navy Marines and Coast Guard became effective. He urged registrants to have both regulation and classification cards ready to avoid penalties. Today began an intensive government campaign to locate draft delinquents.
