Fortunately (at last) a stop has been put to this waste ful practice — at least it is par tially stopped. Right now selective service has a million men ready for induction, but the armed services are not ready to receive them. Here are some statistics that may give an idea regarding the possibility of men over 26 being called. In the 18-26 age group, 1,200,000 are registered — are available. This does not mean that number of men will be called and accepted—some 40 per cent will not be inducted for one reason or I "OIL 1$ USED IO " QUIET M t>EA- AND ISA BI6 ) HELP F0£ SMOOT« k SAILINOONTHE itHl&HWAYS __ t 1 ? fi fl fi fl B fl fi fl fi fl fi fl fi fl fi fl fi fl fi 0 fi another. However, the rate of in duction is now only 100,000 per month. Accordingly, I do not see much likelihood of men over 26 being called into the service dur ing the remainder of this year.
