Orders received here by the local draft board on Tuesday cancel the re- quirements that youths of IS and men between the ages of 37 and 46 be re- quired to fill out their questionnaires. Immediately following the receipt of this order, 190 questionnaires that had been put into the postoffice a short time before were withdrawn from the mails and taken back to the local board office, this lot being 10 per cent of the questionnaires that were to have been sent out. On Monday an other 190 questionnaires were mailed to registrants of this district, and those who have received them and have not filled them out need not do so, but should remail them to the local board. All calls for men to be in ducted into service have also been cancelled, and 20 men who were to en- train Friday morning for Garden City, L. l., were mailed notices on Tuesday that they need not report here. Reg istrants still are liable, under the new orders, for calls for service in the navy or marine corps, however, and it is possible that some men from this dis trict may yet be called for service in these branches.
