Van B. Metts, State Director of Selective Service, declared today. The State Director" pointed out, however, that the public is not permitted to handle rec ords. The only data to be withheld as confidential are the record of the physical condition of a registrant, all answers on the questionnaire under the subject of dependency, except the names and addresses of claimed dependents, the answers to questions on previous military ser vice, and the registrant's court rec ord, the Director said. Pointing out that Selective Ser. vice Form 100, the Classification Record of Registrants, contains practically all pertinent informa tion of a non-confidential nature, Director Metts emphasized that this form is subject to examina tion by the public during local board business hours. This record includes the name 0 the registrant, his order number, his serial number, his age and his race. If he volunteered, the date of his volunteering is shown. If his record is transferred to another board for the purpose of classifi cation, physical examination or in duction, the date of such transfer and the date of the return of the registrant's record from the trans fer board are indicated. Form 100, the Director said, al so shows the date the question naire was mailed, the date of its re turn, if the time for its return is extended, or the date of a claim made for deferment by a person other than the registrant. The date of notice to appear for physical examination, the date the registrant appeared and the dat the classification notice was mail ed to the registrant are also indi cated. It further shows whether the registrant was placed in Class 1A, IB, 1C, ID or IE, or Class 11 A or 11B, or Class 111, or Class IV A, B, C, D, E, or F. If the registarnt makes a re quest to appear before the local board, that date is recorded as is the date fixed for his appearance and a notation as to whether he did appear. This Classification Record (Form 100) also shows the date of an appeal to the Board of Appeal, the date when the registrant's rec ord is sent to the Appeal Board, and whether or not the classifica tion was continued. It further records the date of the order when the registrant should report for induction, if he is so ordered, and the time he is to report for transportation to the induction station, giving the date and the hour, and then shows the final disposition of the registrant at the induction station and the date when he was accepted or re jected, or if he failed to appear. There is also a blank space for remarks in which should be includ- I ed such information on an appeal to the President as the date when the appeal was forwarded; also whether the registrant has become a member of the land or naval forces, whether a notice of delin quency has been mailed to the registrant, and whether the board reported the registrant to the United States Attorney for prose cution as a delinquent. "Form 100, therefore, is virt ually a complete history of the reg istrant except as to specified con fidential matters," Director Metts said. "News agencies, newspapers, radio services and the public gen erally can get any and all informa tion, except confidential matter, relating to a registrant from this record." Furthermore, he said, if local boards or local board clerks refuse to give out the requested in formation without adequate cause for such refusal, the matter should be reported to the State Headquar ters immediately, HO-HUMMM!
