BASE WORKERS
NOT EXCUSED
FROM SERVICE
Defense Employing emf
Won't Keep Men from
Draft, Says Mccormick

| A rumor being widely circulated
throughout the Territory that all
defense base workers are deferred
from military service is utterly in
correct, John l.. Mccormick, Ter
ritorial Director of Selective Serv-
ice, announced today.
! In the first place, such blanket
or group deferments are specifi-
cally prohibited by law and no
one, including Selective Service
boards and officials, can arbitrari-
" set aside the laws that are
passed by Congress.
In the second place, such group
deferments would create haven
of refuge for slackers. Director Nc
Cormick further stated that the
National Director of Selective Ser
vice has announced that no pro-
fession, no SKILL no occupation
and no industry shall become such
refuge. The National Director
has also emphasized that while
requests for deferment made by
Army and Navy authorities will be
given sympathetic consideration
the decision as to whether or not
any registrant is deferred from mil
itary service can and shall be made
only by the local boards and appeal
agencies of the Selective Service
System.
Director Mccormick pointed out
that a number of men are apply
ing for defense jobs Immediately
after passing their physical exam :
nation in the hope and belief that
having such job will keep them
out of the armed forces. Such men
are laboring under delusion. the
Director stated, as National Head
quarters has given definite instruc-
lions to the effect that local boards
shall make diligent efforts to as
certain if the man requesting de-
ferment can be replaced. If such
registrant is not absolutely ire
placeable, the request for deferment
will be denied
I'VE realize the extreme impor-
lance Of our defense bases,' Di-
rector Mccormick said, but they
cannot and shall not be allowed to
become a means by which a man
who does not wish to enter the
armed forces of his country can
gain an automatic deferment."
The Director further emphasized
that the appeal procedure out
lined in the Selective Service Reg
ulations and Law shall be followed
in every instance. 1t cannot be en-
phasized strongly enough, the d.
rector said, that the many rumors
of blanket deferment are utterly
false, nor can it be too strongly
emphasized that no one has any
authority to interfere with the ac-
lions of the local boards. The Di-
rector advised all registrants to
remember that they are required
by law to obey the orders of their
local boards. Any registrant dis
obeying or disregarding such orders
from his local board is liable to
the penalty of the law, which is
five years Imprisonment or a $780,
900 fine, or both.

Job with no parallel in industrial
history, Frank Howard, president of
the Standard Oil Development Co.,
told joint meeting OF the Chemical
Society Of Washington and the
Washington Section of the American
Society Of Civil Engineers In the

last night.

Is In oo-ordinating three distinct pro-
cesses after building the plants and
getting them running smoothly.
The major element Of the program
recommended in the Baruch report
Is the production Of 845 900 tons Of
Buna 3 rubber, the German synthe-
tic which is the most practical for
almost all uses for which natural
rubber Is adapted. From It, Mr..
Howard said, tire can be produced
which VIII be good for at least 80 900
miles on hard roads at q speed of
about 10 miles an hour.
Present calculations, Mr.. Howard
said. arc that Buna s can be pro-
duced for 30 cents q pound and
With mass production 1t Is likely the
cost can be cut to 20 cents.
Butyl Second Development.
The second largest item in the
program Is 10000 tons Of butyI
rubber, Standard Oil development.
IN many respects it is admittedly
inferior to both natural rubber and
buna 8. but can be manufactured
with less new equipment and less
oelay. 1t will give 10000 mile
tire under good driving conditions
Inc cost now is about 20 cents a
pound. This can probably be cut
70 10 cents, Mr.. Howard said.
