When yon think of prescrip

Secretary Quoted
Advice Is Offered By Local
Draft Board To Young Men
Selective Service Executive
Secretary, Mrs. Helen L. Peel
er, who manages Local Board
89, Brevard, Transylvania coun
ty, says the current congres
sional impasse over extending
the induction authority has
created great uncertainty
among area draft-age men.
t Mrs. Peeler continued:
“Selective Service Director
Curtis Tarr has recently stress
ed the importance of explaining
to our draft-age men the high
probability that draft calls will
resume in the near future and
that the current impasse in the
Congress is not likely to affect
any registrant’s chance of being
drafted.
“Our local board has been
specifically instructed to con
tinue to register and classify
men and to order for preinduc
tion physical examinations
those young men who may be
needed to fill draft calls in the
coming months.”
Men with lottery numbers
through 125 were eligible for
induction in June in order to
fill draft calls. Since then, the
Defense Department has asked
Selective Service to draft 16,
000 men in July-August. This
request is being held by Selec
tive Service headquarters pend
ing final congressional action
on the draft bill, which is ex
pected within several weeks.
“Those young men with rela
tively low lottery numbers who
are eligible for induction this
year, particularly those with
numbers below 175—the cur
rent processing ceiling—have a
very good chance of being
processed for induction after
draft calls are restored,” Mrs.
Peeler said.
“Many young men,” said Mrs.
Peeler, “seem to think that the
Selective Service Act has per
manently expired and that they
probably will never be drafted,
some of them also think that
the entire system has stopped.
They are wrong, since it is only
the induction authority that has
expired. They, therefore, may
be unintentionally breaking the
law by failing to register at age
18, by not keeping their local
boards informed of their cur
rent address, or by failing to
report, if ordered, for their
preinduction physical examina
tions.”
Mrs. Peeler also stressed that
local boards are continuing to
consider co, hardship, and
student deferments and to take
other classification actions.
“Young men who planned to
submit requests for deferments
or exemptions are encouraged
to (lo so,” Mrs. Peeler said.
“The expiration of induction
authority does not affect our
responsibility to classify young
men,” Mrs. Peeler added.
