New Policy Adopted
In Selective Service
Registrants under Selective service
whose wives have become pregnant;
J since December 7, 1941, are no longer
entitled to deferrment on the grounds |
of dependency, the Chowan County j
Draft Board has been advised by the |
State director of Selective Service,
who stated that this revised policy
has been made necessary because
present regulations provide that no
status which was acquired on or after
December 8, 1941, may be considered
when deciding questions of de
pendency.
I The Director further announces
i that all local boards in the State
| have been directed to reopen and re
; consider for classification the cases
i of all registrants heretofore deferred
| on the grounds of dependency because
1 their wives became pregnant since
December 7, 1941.
j The fact that a registrant is a
parent shall not be considered in de
| termining the class in which he should
be placed unless the child was con-
I ceived prior to December 3, 1941, the
Director said. He further stated
j that this ruling applies to all cases,
; regardless of the date of marriage,
; and is to be applied both in consider
ing. the classification of a registrant
| and in determining his category.
