NEW SELECTIVE SERVICE REGULATION MAY TAKE
 MORE MARRIED MEN

John L. Mccormick, Territorial Director of Selective Service, an- nOunced today that since the induc- ton of Is and 19 year old regis trants is now prohibited by law, and the number of non-fathers available in the 20 through 25 age group Is very small, it might be necessary to process for induction non-fathers in the age group 26 through 29 in orr der to meet the call placed on Alas ka Boards. ---- ----
 MT. Mccormick further stated that all employers who are now en- ploying registrants between the ages of 20 and 29 inclusively, should submit deferment requests to the registrants' local boards if they think deferment should be granted. This process is necessary in order that local boards will have current information. Deferment requests are not necessary for registrants with one or more children. (The term children shall include legitimate or illegintimate children from the date of their conception, children legally adopted, stepchildren, foster child ren.)
 MT. Mccormack also advises all registrants in the above age group to immediately get in touch with their local boards giving their pres ent address, name of employer, num- Der of children or any other inform ation they deem necessary to help the local board properly classify them.
 It is very important that the em- ployer and the registrant submit the above information to local boards immediately.
 Local boards are being instructed to proceed with t ehreclassification and processing of all non-father registrants between the ages of 26 and 29 years. They will be advised by headquarters the procedure and when to commence calling non fathers in this age group for induc- tion.

THROUGH THE SENTINEL PERFSCOPE

If you own patented land outside of incorporated towns in the Terri tory, the Alaska Real Property Reg fstration law, passed in 1945, re- quires that you file declaration of ownership on or before June 30 of this year. Forms for complying with the act can be obtained from the district land office at Anchorage, Fairbanks or Nome or from the Pub lie Survey Office in Juneau. Owners filing from the First Division should send in their declarations to the U. S. District Land Office at Anchor age as there is no land office in the First Division. Failure to file makes the owner or owners subject to a penalty of $5 year which becomes a lien against the property. The following exemptions are granted: Lands owned by the U. S., land owned by the Territory, lands own-l ed by Indian tribes or lands located within an incorporated town. A homestead entryman should not file a declaration until after patent is- sues Until the patent is actually is- sued, the land remains the property of the government.
