Hershey Says Draft Calls Remain Within Quotas
Maj. Gen Lewis B Hershey director of selective service said in Baltimore that there are enough men under 36 to meet draft quotas for now and that graft calls have decreased. He noted army needs have dropped and deficits could be drawn from older ages if necessary, with a ban on inducting men over 34 in war-related roles. In Houston Henry Sheppard said he halted 92 men headed to San Antonio for induction, citing intent to retire older men and keep up to age 38 who are not in war support activities.
