Leahy Sees Liberal
Policy Of Deferments

A more liberal policy of defer
ments than was permitted during
the prewar training period appears
possibility during the forthcoming
draft, william E. Leahy, director of
District Selective Service, said last
night.
He spoke at a meeting of the
Arkansas Avenue Citizens Asso-
citation in st. Paul's Methodist
Church, Thirteenth and Crittenden
streets NV.
Mr.. Leahy pointed out that, since
the new draft is primarily a medium
for training, the standards OF the
armed services will be stricter than
they were during the war years,
when manpower demands were
heavy. This rule of strict selection.
he added, will prevail at least for a
time.
In addition, no limited service
categories are contemplated, and
youths who fail to meet the physical
or mental standards will not be
accepted.
He said that each case in which
deferment is sought will be solved
"in justice and fairness" as far as
possible. Mr.. Leahy stressed, how
ever, that even with the prospect OF
possible deferment, all youths be-
tween 10 and Is must register at the
announced times, The only persons
exempt from registration are those
in active military or diplomatic
service
Mr.. Leahy lamented the fact that
the new draft was necessary but ex-
planned that it was the only way to
convince the eastern hordes who
believe in the exploitation of man
and his world" that we are vigilant
ard alert to attack
Frank Gauss, who heads the citi-
ZenS' group, presided.
