NEA Selective Service Information BureauWASHINGTON.—Here is a 1 chance to save a lot of readers time and postage in their search ; for Information concerning one \ phase of service under the sc- ! lcctlvc service act.The NEA Selective Service Information Bureau has received literally hundreds of questions of this tenor:1. What protection as a 1 draftee will I have if—1. I am involved in a civil i court 'action?2. If mv dependents live in a j dwelling for which the agreed ! rent *ccs not exceed $80 per month? »3. If I have contracted to purchase real or personal property upon the, installment basis?4. Tf I have obligations relative to a mortgage on real or personal property?5. If I am obligated to pay premiums on life insurance pcli- . oPs whose tntnl face value does i not, exeped $5000?6. If I have taxes falling due ! upon real proper tv?Law Under ConsiderationThe answer to all these queries is that there is not now j anv federal law on the subject. :In the World War Congress passed a law which gave protec- I tion and relief to soldiers and sailors in the active service of the United States. iA bill Congress is at present I considering is drawn very much i along the lines of the act passed , in the last great war. IThe bill has been favorably reported bv the Senate Committee on Military Affairs and Is now on the calendar of the Senate.It is not of much value to go Into the details of the bill as it Is at present written, because It mav be amended in vital parts during Senate discussions and again in the House of Representatives.Draft Boards Will KnowThe main thing for prospec-tive-draftees Ainder she selects service act Is to. remember that the law-makers\ are trying to devise a way to protect them, so thev will not be financially cripr pled by giving service to their country.They should watch the News-Herald to scetwhether the bill becomes law and what Its provisions are. Also, the selective, service local drptft boards will be given full Information on the subject and will be able to give draftees full advice, as will the army officers who will take charge of the men inducted Into service.Another moot point, which depends upon the form the law takes, is whether men who do not wait to be drafted, but enlist now for one^year’s training in the army, will also come under the scope of this legal protection.J'choc county an 1 tc; schaol.j c .' iiciah 3.G0 yi register tion.The jcho.ls *»«* rcg tween I 'yea;s v Fred C' rrr-Jan this wePLJ.
