To Be |nducted
In Richmond
280 in First Call
For April; More
To Be Summoned


An official requisition for 28(
Washington selectees to be inducted
into the Army between April II
and 20 was received from Third
Corps Area headquarters today with
the notation that the inductions
will take place in Richmond instead
of Baltimore.
The communication, embodying
an all-white selectee call, requested
the District to supply IS men on
each of the following days: April
IL, II, IA, Is, Is, II, 18 and 10.
A second section of the April
quota for the District will call for
528 men. all white, between April
20 and the end of the month, it also
was reported unofficiahy, making a
total of 808 men as the probable
overall monthly call. This figure
represents several hundred Selec-
tees fewer than tentative estimates
announced last week.
Nevertheless, according to corps
area figures, Washington will have
left only $40 men to supply in May
and June to complete its first years
Selective Service quota. OF the
remaining selectees, 495 will be
white men and 315 colored
Todays requisition was received
from Maj. Floyd w. Ferree, assistant
adjutant general of the Sd Corps
Area.
Men Go to Fort Meade.
Although the $50 men were sched-
uled for induction at the Blues
Armory in Richmond, it was under
stood they will be assigned to per-
manent duty with Washington units
of the 29th Division now in active
training at Fort George G. Meade,
Md.
Threatened overlooking of the
Baltimore induction station, where
Washingtonians have been initiated
into the Army since the District
station was closed after the token
induction last November, was un-
derstood to have prompted the move
TO Richmond. The Richmond sta
tion already is used for induction
OF selectees from the Northern Vir-
ginia counties. Roanoke takes care
OF the southern counties.
WaShington's April inductees,
after their visit to the Richmond
station, will be sent farther south
to the Camp Lee reception center
near Hopewell, Va.-for process
ing before they are returned to
Fort Meade.
The 280-man quota will be appor-
TONED among the IS local boards
with the request that each board be
prepared to furnish at least 20 per
cent more men than are called for
ia the breakdown to have available
tepaacements for selectees that may
Be rejected Mt the Richmond induc-
sio1 station. The complete break
down k expected 10 be announced
tomorrow.
