Volunteers Must
Act Before Draft
Registrants' who enlist after
being called for pre-induction
physical examination can hardly
be credited with outstanding pat
riotic motives for so doing John
L. McCormick, Territorial Dir
ector of Selective Service, stated
today.
“Such men,” he said “seem to
trace public recognition as vol
unteers when it is perfectly ap
parent that the compelling mo
tive is the knowledge they will
be ordered into the Army within
a few days. Director McCormick
said that while the recruiting ser
vices continue to operate men of
draft age may volunteer up to
the time of being called for in
duction.
He continued: ‘‘Before a regis
trant is permitted to enlist after
call for pre induction physical
examination, his board must cer
tify to the recruiting office that
the applicant is not a necessary
man to industry. If successful,
the registrant enters the Army
within two or three weeks from
the time he would be inducted
i anyway.
“It is, of course, different with
the registrant who prefers to
serve with the Navy, the Marine
Corps, or the Coast Guard, but
in such cases, we cannot help but
feel that the man who is sincere
in his preference will not wait
to volunteer until he is about to
fe drafted. Then too, the Local
Board has the privilege of declin
ing to give a waiver after it has
tailed a registrant for physical
examination and the plans of the
■an who waits until the last mo
ment may be defeated.”
