Chemist Group Hits
Draft Delay Policy
BY me Assoeiessd Press

The American Chemical So
ciety protested today that proper
draft deferment is not being
granted to scientists and engi-
neers as provided by the Selec-
tive Service Act.
II this policy is not changed.
the society said, the resulting
shortage Of scientists and engi-
neers may slow further progress
in the development Of new
weapons.
The society's protest was made
In a letter to Mai. Gen. Lewis B.
Hershey, draft director, signed
by the groups executive secre-
tary. Alden H. Emery. Copies
went to Senator Saltonstall. Re-
publican, of Massachusetts, and
Representative Short, Repub-
1ican, of Missouri. chairmen of
the Senate and House Military
Affairs Committees.
Mr.. Emery said Congress spe-
CITED that under the draft law
"each man would serve in that
capacity in which he could rem
der the maximum contributions
to this Nations health and Sc
curity."
Yet, he said, statistics prove
that selective service is becom-
ing less selective. Mr.. Emery
said the number of occupational
deferments dropped from 32,439
to fewer than 1000 during the
past year and a half. In recent
months, he added. the drop has
been especially fast, with only
1885 deferments between De-
cember /, 1858 and March /,
1854.
