Blows recently struck by our naval and air

CITY DRAFT HEADS
CONFER WITH METTS

Walter M. Hewlett and Thonas
F. Wood, members of City Draft
Board No. /, were unofficis. .:i.
tors to Raleigh yesterday, where
an informal conference was held
with Adj. Gen. J. Van B. Nets.
head of the State Selective Service
system. Mr.. Hewlett revealed last
night that the discussion with Gen,
Nets related to Selective Service
regulations and a review of cases
within New Hanover county.
Mr.. Hewlett said that although
a merger of draft boards within
several counties already had taken
place, nothing was said at yester.
days meeting of the anticipated
merger Of the two draft boards
within New Hanover county, re-
lative to an order from Gen. Nets.
The order by Gen. Nets provides
that in communities with more
than one draft board, the two
boards be merged without a re-
duction in staff or in the quotas
Of selectees.
Mr.. Hewlett could offer no in
formation as to when the order
would affect New Hanover county.
