Exemption Basis
Same For All Says
Campbell Johnson

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan 7
Colored men are being
exempted from military service un-
der exactly the same deferment
regulations as white men. Colonel
Campbell C. Johnson, executive as
sistant to Major General Lewis B.
Hershey. director of Selective Ser
vice, said last Thursday.
Asked why more than 10 per cent
of the October and November in
auctions into the armed forces were
colored men, Colonel Johnson said
that in the application of the regu-
lations poStponing induction of high
school and college students, a larg-
er percentage of such students were
found among white youths than
among colored, and it was possible
that a larger number of colored reg
istrants were being indicted for
that reason.
This temporary difference, he
said, would be equalized at the end
of each school semester when high
school students would become avail
able for induction.
Regarding December fig ure S,
which showed 20 per cent Undue
ton of colored men, Colonel john
son revealed that most states hav-
ing large colored populations in
duct colored men between the first
and fifteenth of the month, and
white registrants between the fiji
teenth and the end of the month.

to embrace a full, rich and album
dant life This alone will insure
prosperity, security and permanent
