National Guards
Must Register
Upon Release
Men who have served in the
Alaska National Guard are re
quired to register immediately
upon release from the Guard,
even though they are not, under
certain conditions, liable for fur
ther peacetime training and ser
vice under the Selective Service
Act.
That fact was stressed by John
L. McCormick, Director of Selec
tive Service for Alaska, who said
that all such men should present
themselves to a local board for
registration immediately upon
their discharge.
•‘The act is specific,” said Dir
ector McCormick, “in requiring
registration of men within the
ago group of 21 to 36 who have
served in the National Guard.
Men who were members of the
Alaska National Guard on Jan
uary 22 last, and who have com
pleted six or more consecutive
years, are relieved from liability
for peacetime service and train
ing, but they must register.
Those who were members of the
National Guard and have served
less than six years are relieved
neither from registration nor
training.”
Director McCormick said that
his attention had been called to
the fact that some men in the
National Guard who have beer,
discharged because of expiration
of their service through release
or registration have not register
ed. They should do so immediate
ly, he declared, and added that
the War Department has now
I issued instructions that such men
shad be notified by their organiz
ation commanders at ihe time of
! their discharge of the necessity
to register.

Registrants Over
28 Must Conform
To Local Boards
-
j
Although deferred by law
from nettl'd military training. Sel
ertive Service registrants who
are more than 2n> years old must
■conform to orders from their lo \
eal boards or be liable to penal
ties prescribed for delinquents,
John T.. McCormick, Territorial,
Director of Selective Service cau'
tioned them today.
While the amendment to the j
Selective Training and Service
Act of 1940 recently adopted by
Congress precludes induction of
men who were 28 years of age j
or o'der on July 1, 1941, these;
registrants must live up to the:
other obligations imposed upon
them by the Act, the Director
said.
Questionnaires must be filed at
the request of the registrant’s
local board, he declared, and any ;
registrant who fails to comply |
with such requests may be con- ;
sidered as a delinquent and be;
liable to fine or imprisonment, or
both under the penalty clause of
the Act.
Although registrants who were
28 years of age or older on
July 1, 1941, must fill out ques
tionnaires, Director McCormick j
said, when it becomes evident |
that they are deferred because
of age, they will be placed in
the proper deferred classification
by their local boards. I
It is intended, be declared, that;
hereafter registrants who are de
ferred by reason of age will con i
tinue to be classified in the same
manner as other registrants, ex
cept that they will be given no
physician examination, and ex
cept that those of such .regis
trants who are being classified
for the first time and who are not
classified into Class IV, Class III,
or Class II will be classed in
Class I-H. Those of such regis- j
trants who are classified into
Class I or Class IV-E before be
coming entitled to deferment by
reason of age, will be placed into*
Class I-H and Class’IV-E-H res
pectively upon becoming entitl-,
ed to deferment by reason of age>
Director McCormick pointed out.

WASHINGTON, Sept. — Indus
trial expansion to meet purely
! civilian demands was forbidden
by the Priorities Allocations
1 Board, if the planned expansion
1 requires the use of large quan
: tities of materials critically need
; ed for defense.
The policy was established in a
temporary denial of the proposal
i to expand the plant of the Ten
; nessee Eastman Corporation at
Kingsport, Tenn., manufacturer
' of plastics.
The board said: "One hundred
similar applications are on hand.
No single one can properly be
I granted until it is known how
much of a strain would be im
posed on the scare materials in
■ voled in granting all of them."
Defense Priorities, Director
Nelson issued a sweeping prior
1 ities order covering repair w’ork
: in essential industries.
Virtually all essential repair
work in defense industries were
placed on a priority basis, and
the industries will have to cert
ify needs for raw materials for
repairs. The order applied to
’ radio stations, communication
' systems, hospitals, police depart
| ments, fire departments and for
1 eslry control stations. Also cov
i ered are railroads, steamship and
i bus lines, truck companies and
petroleum refineries.
Nelson said the program was
launched to insure immediate re
: pairs where most needed ‘t‘o cut
down on the nonessential in or
der that we may have the es
sential.”
