The departing groups were ad- dressed by Mayor John J. Monagan and medals were dispensed among them by veteran organization tep- resentatives. A large crowd was in attendance at the departure of the Navy group early in the morning and the Army group which left about 9:45 a. m.
 Witnesses who have watched other similar departures of Waterbury men, many of whom are now scat- tered all over the globe, stated that today's was one of the saddest ever seen. Wives of many of the men whose children were left at home openly wept following the departure of the bus that carried away the men. It was @ solemn and grave scene with no band playing and talk being made in quiet almost hushed tones.
 Many more local fathers leave for Che armed forces again during this week while still others as prospective draftees depart for the New Haven induction center for their physical exams.
 No slackening of the father draft seems ct all imminent now despite theh recent directlves calling for the screening of most of the occupa- tional deferments Statistics revealed yesterday by Army authorities pur- ported to show the need for l,200,-

900 more men being drafted by July lst. Most of these men will prob- ably come from the father-ClaSs 1t was stated with the Next greater share being derived from occupa- tionally deferred classes and eSsen- tial civilian classes. A few 4-F'S will also be taken 1t was stated although 1t was not expected that the pres- ent physical standards would be lowered.
 Officials of local draft boards in answering criticisms of fathers being called are referring the critics to the state office in Hartford for an explanation. Single men and mar ried men without children are still being deferred on orders from Hart ford. The state office has entered into an agreement with employers, especially large industrial plants. If mans name Is placed on the so- called replacement schedule the board orders his defevment for 0 reasonable time. This arrangement being misunderstood Is causing no end of adverse criticism. Wives see- Ing their husbands drafted and their children made "dependents' of Uncle Sam are critical of the number of single men an fatherless men remaining here.
