Draft Board Advisors Get Citations
 Wesson Among
 Those Honored at
 Hartford Ceremony

Members of the Advisory Commit tees of the Selective Service Sys- tenn were awarded the Selective Service Medal and Citation by Con- mander John F. Robinson, State Di- rector of Selective Service today in the Hartford State Armory.
 These Committees were organ ized in 1943 to act in an advisory capacity to the Selective Service System due to the critical shortage of essential and key men in Food, Feed and Grain, Automotive Main tenance, Solid and Liquid Fuel and Laundry and Dry Cleaning Indus tries. As experts in their particular industries, these Committees would recommend to the Selective Service Boards the key men who were ir- replaceable and indispensable to the maintenance of these industries and those men who could be replaced without impairing the national health, safety and interest. The facts that they presented to Selec- tive Service boards regarding the essentially of key men in their va rious industries were of great assist ance to local boards in their classi- fications. They contributed so much to the success of the adminis- tration of the Selective Training and Service Act that they have been awarded the Medal and Citation in recognition of their meritorious services.
 Major Stanley A Ward, who acted as Liaison Officer between these Committes and the Selective Service System, was present at the cere- monies.
 w. E. Wesson, Waterbury, was among those honored.
