Questions on New Draft<br />

Regulations Answered<br />

Q Is every local draft board<br />

bound to follow the new policies<br />

announced last Thursday?<br />

A. National headquarters believes<br />

that the boards, by and<br />

large, wilt attempt to carry out<br />

the principles lakl down.<br />

Q. Does this moan that no men<br />

30 and over in essential Indus-tri- es<br />

will be dratted until further<br />

notice?<br />

A. As a general thing, yes. But<br />

a local board may decide that tin<br />

elevator operator In a war plant,<br />

for Instance, is doing work for<br />

which women arc available, if the<br />

board decides this man is not contributing<br />

all he coukl to the war<br />

effort, H can refuse him a dofcr--<br />

'<br />

merit.<br />

Q Then a board can draft men<br />

over 30 evon if it still has not inducted<br />

all Its men under 36?<br />

A. Yes, but this would be the<br />

exceptional case, not the rule.<br />

Q. Isn't it true, however, that<br />

many men over 30 doing useful<br />

'work in essential industries were<br />

drafted and arc being dratted now<br />

in spite of the "stay" ordered on<br />

April 8?<br />

A. The new directive is Intended<br />

to correct that.<br />

Q. What shall a board do if it<br />

runs out of men under 36, exhausts<br />

its<br />

36-2-<br />

0 group<br />

ry<br />

of<br />

men. and has no 30-3- 8 men in nonessential<br />

industries from which to<br />

draw?<br />

ride: that is. fail to deliver its<br />

quota for that month.<br />

Q. What should an ossential employer<br />

do If a deferment for an<br />

over-3-0 employe is turned down?<br />

Hershey advises that an appeal be<br />

filed.<br />

Q. In some cases which have<br />

developed In recent weeks, the appeal<br />

period has expired?<br />

Those regulations arc a new<br />

fact.<br />

Q. What if a man is already accepted<br />

that is, has passed his<br />

physical examination but has not<br />

yet been Inducted.<br />

position. Selective Service has directed<br />

that those cases be reopened<br />

immediately.<br />

Q. There is always a time Inn<br />

between the forminR of policies<br />

and placing them in effect. Will<br />

some men be caught?<br />

A growing city is almost invariably a city with a friendly and hospitable<br />

spirit. Sometimes a city achieves a sudden growth as a result of<br />

an oil boom or the discovery of other wealth hidden beneath it's soil. But<br />

these instances are only rare. Most cities are man made.<br />

Small cities become great cities through the vision and energy of it's<br />

citizens. Such a city constantly seeks new capital investment in its development,<br />

new enterprises, new industries, new payrolls and new citizens.<br />

This program of city building, featuring 'the welcoming hand of<br />

friendship to new citizens and new enterprises and accompanied by the<br />

fullest possible support of the industries it already has, brings rich rewards.<br />

The great cities of the Southwest were built and are being further<br />

built in just such manner.<br />

The Southwestern Public Service Company is an independent company<br />

operating wholly under local management, since it has no holding<br />

company over it whatsoever. Thus it's officers and managers are in<br />

position to conduct the operations of the Company under a policy of cooperation<br />

with the people of the cities and communties it serves.<br />

This policy means the finest possible service to the public at the lowest<br />

possible rates consistent with such service. It also means the fullest<br />

cooperation with the citizens in all matters leading to the development<br />

and upbuilding of the cities and communities served by the Company.<br />
