tion at age 18 1-2 instead Of
19- No thhii beIoW~19 can bC”

has eligible older men.
3. Physical and * mental
standards for service have
Veen- lowered, with the result
that' some men now classified
IV-F will be found suitable for
LA.
4. The present strength of
the armed forces, approxi-
mately 3 1-2 million, can be
raised fo 5-million menr

ency on the basis of a wife

ferred on educational, occupa-
tional, farming, or depend-
ency -grounds will remain
liable for service until age 35.

military service shall be order-
ed by local boards, subject to
regulations prescribed by the
pr^sideht, to perform civilian
work in the national interest
for 24 months. -

by way of a draft board are
obligated to serve six years in
the reserves after discharge.

be deferred until graduated,

until they fail schbol work.
10. Some college students
I may be deferred on the basis
I of class standing during last

dents may be deferred on a
less competitive basis.
