“In complying with the instructions of the director of war
mobilization,” the
“the army will accept certain
men below our general
physical standards who are reE. (classified and presented for induction by the Selective Service system. . .(and) pla.ed in ass gnments best suited for their
physical condititm.”
The army will fix special quotas for such “job seekers” and assign them to other than regular duties. Neither the extent of he quotas nor the type of
duties was disclosed.
Tile order did not apply to men listed only as 4-F's but legislation already has been introduced in Congress to give them the choice of getting into essential work or facing induc-
tion.
Men deferred for agricultural work also were not affected by the new order, but the Tdyinga amendment on farm deferments carries the threat of induction for those who leave their jobs without authority. And deferments of younger farm workers already are under review with a view to tightening them up.
