Another Statement on Sub

to Registrars.

WASHINGTON. Sept 25-Provost
Marshal-General Crowder again yester-
day, by formal statement asked men
registered under the selective service
law who are now engaged in answering
questionnaires, not to let motives of
chivalry prevent them from asking de-
ferred classification If their occupation
or the status of their dependents en-
titles them 10 do so. He again pointed
out that such claims can be made by
a third person and though local boards
are endeavoring to ascertain the true
condition even where n claim is not
made. the necessity for expediting the
work makes it incumbent on regis
trants to assist.
lit should be borne in mind by the
Individual roEistraut." said General
Crowder. that the military program Of
this country. built around the desires of
all concerned to win victory for our
cause as quickly as possible. demands &c
the selective system the utmost speed
in classifying the 100000 approx
mately who registered on September IL.
If all these 10000. 900 registrants were
70 decline to aid the boards by indicat-
ing their own attitude regarding defer
ment and were to rely entirely on the
ability of the boards to perceive pro-
priety Of making d. Terments. the whole
process OF raising the army would be
seriously hampered and delayed.
This applies equally to those entitled
20 deferment on the ground of depend
ency and those on the ground Of neces-
sary occupationa1 employment. Either
the claim should be made by the regis
rrant or by competent third person in
his behalf"
