that scarce materials are now ra-
toned to them-on the basis of
the greatest need at the moment
in the light of shifting trends in
arms production.
Announcing the tighter restric-
tons on occupational deferment
for men under rs, Maj. Gen. Lew
is B. Hershey, selective service
director, said state directors are
expected to recommend defer
ments in the case of men with
out whose services the production
requirements of critical industry
cannot be met"
''The making available for in
duction of registrants under 26
years of age will permit defer
ment of registrants rs years of
age and over in critical industries
with progressive consideration
for their relative irreplaceability
and increase in age," Hershey
said

Deferment Age.
Limit Is Raised
Occupational Drafts Defer
ments For Men From Is To
rs More Limited =

Washington - Selective serv-
ice Tuesday night prohibited &C.
cupational draft deferments for
men aged 18 to Is, inclusive, ex-
cept when approved by state
draft directors or when engaged
in an occupation specifically ex-
cepted from this policy by the di-
rector of selective service.
This extended to men aged o.
Is, inclusive, a policy already in
effect for those 18 to %.
The move was announced coin
cident with reports that a new
plan is in the making to ration
occupational deferments to war
plants in much the same manner

Sitting here today,
Thinking of you
And not much to say.
My thoughts are of you
Mother, Dad and all.
I'll be back home
When our enemy falls.
We really work hard
And our tired legs get sore,
When Victory is won,
Well have Che big score.
Then homeWard bound
We boys will be
Your bright eyes, Mother,
Once more I shall see.
There will be Dad
l think of him, too.
l love old Dad
Just the same as you.
Well, Mother, I'll close
! With my thoughts of you,
Please write more, soon,
AS you always do.

"MOTHER"

You read in the papers, here and
there,
Where people write today,
In remembrance and in grief
Of those who've passed away.
This is nice you will agree
To them your tribute pay
But this thought occurs to me
Which makes me want to say:
How much nicer it would have
been
Could they have only heard
Those loving words you had to
say
And that you really cared.
To-day, 1 write of Mother, dear
The closest to us all
I must let her know I care
Before she gets her call.
Now as I look backward
Into the past of mine
I see her name and picture
A hundred thousand times.
Times when life seemed empty
And the future looked so dark
Her love so we'll remembered
Has anchored within my heart.
And way back as I recall
When the spooks begin to creep
climbed upon her lap
And there I went to sleep.
Then at the end of the week
AS Sunday rolled around
She carried me to Sunday School
And there she put me down.
Now while this war is being won
To God I send the prayer
To watch and keep her safely
And all her burdens bear.
BY A. J. Graham.
