The local exemption board reports
that several men who have been notl-
fed to appear for examination have
failed to show up. In one instance the
mother of man to whom notice was
mailed refused to accept the letter
from the mail carrier, saying that her
son was not at home.
Another man residing in the eastern
part of the county was notified
to appear last Tuesday. His father
wrote to the exemption board asking
that the young man be excused for q
few weeks, as his crops were just be-
ginning to get ripe and had to be cut
and he therefore coaia@aot leave, the
farm. E~
In both of the above cases, as we'll
as in any others where the men fail
to appear for examination when noti-
fed, the exemption board is required
to record the men as physically quail
fed for service, and they lose the right
to claim exemption and to be examin-
ed for their physical fitness. The gov
ernment regulations regarding this
read as follows:
''In case any person called and mo-
titled in the manner prescribed Of the
day set for his physical examination
does not appear for such examination;
such person shall be recorded as ply
sically qualified for military service"
