Indefinite Deferment To Men Over 29 Announced Washington, May 22.—(ΛΡ)- Se lective Service announced today a ixilicy m indefinite deferment for η:cn over 29 in "useful" work. At the same time, it predicted a heavier call of ,v( linger men. Major General Lewis B. Hershey, draft director, said at a news con ference that as a result <>| the war's end in Kurope, "occupational riefer lncnt policy must be liberalized" for registrants 30 through 37. This course, effective immediately, means that these older men will not be drafted so long as they slay in work considered useful by local boards. It means, too, that deter ments will not require renewal at the end of six months periods, as heretofore. Hershey also announced that the draft call, beginning in July, will be cut about 2â percent below the current rate. That will put it at ΠΙΙ,00(1 nn" . as compared with 120, 000 at present. The draft director instructed local boards to review at once the files of 4-F's and limited s< rvice regis trants 18 through 25. Where there is rae.Min to believe "tiny may now be qualified for military service," they should be forwarded for re examination. Hershey said. For men 2(i to 29. the prevailing certification policy of government agencies will be continued for the present. Hershey predicted, how ever, "that the time is comi:-g" when more of these men occupa tionally deferred will have to be drafted. FIRST fcUROPE-TO-PACIFIC TROOPS ARRIVfc IN U.
