A0A
Senator Maddox succeeds Mrs.
Bertha H. Dodds of Helena, who
served as state chairman since
the death of A. H. Brown of Bill
nngS in an airplane crash at
Fargo, N. D., last fall.
Other officers elected to serve
for the next two years were Mrs.
Dodds, vice chairman; Ashton
Jones of Broadus, secretary, and
Senator Fred Robinson of Malta,
treasurer.
Prominent among the speak
erS at the meeting were yelling
ton D. Rankin, Republican can
dldate for the office of U. s.
Senator, Governor Sam c. Ford,
F. F. Haynes of Forsyth, Repub-
lican candidate for congress
from the second Montana dis
trict, and Howard K. Hazelbaker
of Missoula, Republican candi-
date for congress from the
First Montana district.
The group adopted a platform
which made victory its theme.
Important points favored the re-
duction to a minimum of non
defense expenditures for non
wal purposes, a just distribution
of the burden of the war, and
the imposition of rigid restraint
on initiation. Favored are old
age pensions, synthetic rubber
production from agricultural as
well as other products, suitable
legislation for protection of
families in the armed services,
and the use of every effort to
sustain and build the sugar beet
industry.
Mr.. Rankin's address followed
a patriotic theme. He pledged
every effort to help win the war,
and pointed to the necessity of
the two-party system as making
for clear thinking in regard to
domestic as well as international
problems.
Governor Ford called atten-
ton to the record of the present
Republican administration, and
pointed out that campaign
promises in regard to state gov
eminent had been kept. In con-
Guiding his talk he reported
that the state government has
been highly recommended by
the war department for its CO.
operation with the war effort.

URGED TO MAKE
USE OF V-MAIL
Free Bldnks Con Be Had
By Applying At Hdrdin
Postoffice Window

The V-Mail service, that meth
cd of photographing letters to
service men and sending them
along on space-saving rolls of
film, is now definitely past the
experimental stage, and is be-
ing more and more widely used,
the Post Office department an
nounced this week.
The War department has in
creased its facilities. V-Mail is
now going to the British Isles,
Australia, India, Hawaii and
other points. A similar service
is being planned for Iceland
and any other places where vol
ume may warrant.
It was pointed out that V-Mail
Is given rapid handling, and the
films often travel on ferry
planes and bombers.
Also emphasized is the fact
that the weight V-Man saves
on transports can be allotted to
vital military material.
A special letter sheet (now
available at all post offices)
must be used. It IS a combina-
ton letter and envelope of uni
form size and" design. The let
ter is written and addressed in
the usual manner, then folded
and mailed. Since only the in
ner or letter side of V-Mail let
tiers are photographed, the COM
plete address of the person to
whom the message is sent must
be written, or preferably print
ed, in the panel provided for IT
above the space for the message.
After the messages, on micro
film, arrive at their destination,
reproductions are made by au-
tomato machines and delivered
in sealed window envelopes.
When V-Mail letters are adj
dressed to places where micro
film equipment is not in opera
ton, they are transmitted in
their original form by the most
expeditions means available.
Even in these instances, there
is much saving in space and
weight, since there are approx
mately 81 V-Mail letters per
pound, while ordinary letters
average 40 per pound.
The War, Navy and Post Of
flee departments cooperated in
developing this service. The pub
Lie is urged to use it at every
opportunity.

MAIL SOLDIERS
GIFTS BY NOV. l

Those who wish friends and
relatives in the armed forces
who are stationed outside the
continental United States to re-
ceive their Christmas gifts and
cards on time should mail their
| packages between Oct. 1 and
Nov. l this year, according to
information from the Post Of
flee department, it was ANNOUNCE
ed this week.
Alaska is included in the clas-
sification "outside the continent
tai United States"
Because of the urgent need
for shipping space for vital
materials, packages are limited
to II pounds in weight or 10
inches in length or AZ inches
in length and girth combined.
The War department has asked
that parcels be even smaller If
possible-about the size of a
shoe box and not more than
six pounds in weight.
It was pointed out that the
armed forces are amply provid-
ed with food and clothing, and
the public is urged not to send
such matter in gift parcels.
Because they must 90 long
distances and will be handled
a great deal, it is ESSENTIAL that
Christmas packages for service
men be packaged in substantial
containers and be covered with
strong wrappers. AS each parcel
is subject to censorship, it is
also suggested that all packages
be fastened in such a way that
they may be readily inspected.
It Is also pointed out that in
loosely packed boxes, articles are
more likely to be damaged. A
special warning was issued re-
garding sharp or pointed arti-
cleS such as razors or knives.
These must be packed so that
they cannot cut through the
package.
No periShable matter of any
kind should be included.
Intoxicants, inflammable ma
terials and poisons or compost
tons which may kill or injure
another or damage the mails
are unavailable.
If indication of the fact that
a package is for Christmas is
made on the outside of the par
eel, every effort will be made
to see that it arrives in time.

GROUP |.B TO
BE RELEASED
Reconsideration
To Be Completed
By ~JdnudrY First

Elimination of Glass 1-B, the
Selective Service designation for
regiStrantS considered fit for
limited military service only, be-
ginning August 20 was announc-
ed by national headquarters for
Selective Service recently.
Thereafter all ~registrants who
are not totally disqualified will
be reclassified in Class Ia and
the Army will decide, after in
d%uction, on their individual as
Segment to full or limited mill
tary service. Registrars found
to be unSuited for any military
service will be placed in Class
IV-F.
I~nstructing local board on the
Redistribution of limited serv-
ice men who had been placed in
Glass 1-B, which will be started
throughout the country on Sep
TENDER /, national HEADQUARTERS
stressed that not to exceed one
fourth of the present Glass 1-B
men in each local board area
may be reclassified each month.
It Is expected that the reclassi-
fication will be completed by
January 1.
In the Redistribution of Class
l-B registrants, where the in
dividual is not deferred for rea-
sons other than physical, he will
be re-examined by the local
board examining physician to
determine whether he has any
obviously disqualifying defects
which would prevent him from
rendering any service. If he has
none he will be sent to the Ar
my induction station on the
appropriate call.
Reclassification procedure re-
quires that local boards place
reg1strantS not believed totally
disqualified for military service
IN Class IA pending examina-
ton at Army induction stations.
Those men who are obviously
physically disqualified will be
given the Glass IV-F classified
ton, as will those who are re-
jected by the Army.
The Selective Service action
followed closely the recent de-
c1sion of the War department
to induct men with minor physi-
cal defects. Future calls for Sc
lectees Will be for class ia men
only. Men. having minor, but
not disqualifying defects, will be
forwarded to Army induction
stations along with those having
no known defects. The indicted
men will be assigned bv the Ar
my to general or limited mill
tary service according to their
physical qualifications.
Conscientious directors who
heretofore had been classified
IN Glass I-B-O if fit for limited
service in noncombatant units.
or In Glass IV-E-LS, if fit for
limited service in civilian work
camps, now will be classified
Glass LAO if fit for non COM
blatant military service, or in
Glass I'VE if fit for induction
into work camps. Those phyS-
caly unfit will be classified in
Glass IV-F.
Instructing local boards to re-
classify limited service regis
trants, national headquarters
cautioned that full considera-
alton must be given to Selective
Service policies governing defer
ments for dependency, family
relationship and occupation.
While limited service registrants
were not considered by their To-
cal boards to have any basis for
dependency or occupational
classification at the time they
were originally classified, ma
tional headquarters pointed out
that In some instances their
status may have changed.
