! PAGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, APRIL 14, 1942. QUESTIONNAIRES NEWSELEGTEES Registrants Allowed Ten Days To Return Paper- Advisory Board Is Listed, Selective Service Board No. 2 of Jackson county announced yesterday that occupational que tionnairei were being mailed to men In the third registration. The registrant is allowed ten days to complete this question naire and return it to the board. The registrant is supposed to uwer all questions that per tain to his affairs, however. If he should be unable to understand a question, he may appeal to the following advisory board for as sistance. Charles Reames, Medford Cen ter Bid.; Kenneth Denman, Jackson Co. Bank Bldg.; Harry Skyrman, Medford Center Bldg.; O. H. Bengtson, Jackson Co. Loan; Allison Moulton, Liberty Building; Frank P. Farrell, Fluhrer Bldg.; Rawles Moore, Craterlan Theatre Bldg. Ashland: Frank Van Dyke, William Brlggs. This board represents only those registrants who come un der Jackson County Board No. 2. When a registrant's occupa tional questionnaire omits need ed Information, contains material errors or shows that registrant falls to understand the question naire, the local board will re turn the questionnaire to the reg istrant for correction or comple tion and direct him to return the questionnaire on or before a specified date. The experience of the selective service boards in the first two registrations was that the regis trants too often tried to secure the service of the advisory board in making out the questionnaire. This is not the intent of the Se lective Service law as the ques tionnaire is a personal record of the registrant and should be filled out entirely by him. The advisory board Is merely an as sistance committee which will be (lad to explain any questions not understood by the registrants. The Selective Service Board also announces that question naire pertaining to selective ser vice will be mailed to all of the registrants of the third registra tion in the very near future and that these also must be com pleted by the registrant within ten days and returned to the se lective service board. The same registrants' advisory board may be appealed to on this question naire. The board requests each registrant to read over every question in both of these ques tionnaires and if there is any in formation that he can give per taining to his affairs which will answer the question It will assist the Selective Service Board in their classifications.
