ACCEPT OVER 20 VOLUNTEER

Local draft boards have been
deferring all registrants who had
attained their 18th birthdays by
July LIST since an order issued by
the Selective service headquarters
in Washington last month but
those over % who volunteered had
been accepted.
While no longer permitted TO
volunteer. for one year this does
not mean that they may not enlist
in the regular service, Major Eng
Istrom said.
Major Engstrom also stated
that some of the new registrants
would probably start being called
the first part of August depend
ing on how well depleted their
local boards list may be.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-07-17
HOW SYSTEM WORKS

Thus a local board of 1000
whose last inductee was number
1000 has a balance of 1000 and
If the same board has 100 new
registrants its sequence ratio will
be 10 10 / and the name of a
new draftee will be inserted in
the draft roll after every 10 names.
The number of persons TO be
drafted by local boards after the
registration will probably be
slightly increased by a ruling an
nounced today by the war de-
partment that men over % years
of age will no longer be accepted
as volunteers for one year of train
ing in the Selective service army.

TO Pit of Stomach

You can't deny, however. that
the undulating howl OF the warn
ing signal does something to the
pit Of your stomach. It's ter
rifying sound, but at the same
time exciting, stimulating. Life
becomes Immediately more inter
esting and desirable. You see no
evidence Of danger but you know
it's there, somewhere behind those
white clouds and pigeons, young
killers in goggles behind guns and
bombs. You realize with the peo-
pie below that the odds Of being
killed in the next few minutes are
way in your favor, that IN the
daytime the Spitfires and ack-acks
are taking care Of the raiders far
out on the edge Of town where
the cru-ump cr-ump Of gun fire is
too far away to be located. But
you also realize that this siren Is
not Just sound effects and that
people die after that sound nearly
every day and night IN England.
SO YOU begin to worry about
your lack Of any protective equip

You hurry out the hotel door
where the sign now reads Alert"

Army Training
Asked for Gee
Special In THE DETROIT TINES

WASHINGTON. May Coon
verting the Civilian Conservation
Corps into a service-maintenance
army training establishment was
proposed today by Rep. Wesley
Disney tDl of Oklahoma.
The $3.50. 100000 a year the
CCC now is costing. according 10
Disney. would be that much saved
TO the army or that much saved
in relief expenditures. Explaining
his proposal. Disney said:
1.-THE CCC IL costing $3.50, 000.-
900 per year. These camps could
be OF especial use to the army
as training camps for the serv-
ice-maintenance division.
ct was first calculated that
per cent Of the army would he
necessary for this quasi-engi-
neering service branch. but now
the estimate IL about IA per
cent.
. "The army could make use OF
= the CCC camps for the use OF
. training this number of men In
the CCC camps Instead of their
being trained I'm the canton
ments. This would obviate the
spending Of the $3.50, 900, 900 for
relief that could be made use of
by the army.
, 1.-THE CCC camps should be
, disbanded, and the barracks Of
each should he turned over TO
The army for the training of the
army service branch.
1.-THE WPA, the NYA and the
. CCC are all relief agencies with
. separate organizations, separate
. oyerheads,H different expendi-
lures. My plan would serve
useful purpose to national de-
, tense. The CCC enrolees, II nee
essary, may be placed under
some other branch of relief"
