4-A Men to Be
Re-classified
By Local Board
Selective service classification
4-A has been nullified due to
the present war emergency,
Klamath county draft headquar
ters announced Monday, and all
4-A registrants will be immed
iately reclassified.
The order affects 74 Klamath
county men.
The 4-A class is composed of
draft registrants who have had
previous military experience.
Status of the men after reclassi
fication will depend upon pres
ent conditions relative to their
dependency, physical qualifica
tions, and other draft board re
strictions. The war has also caused the
two local boards to be put on the
alert for the repeal of the 28
year age limit recently set by
congress.
The boards may soon be called
upon to reclassify 1-B men, those
with minor physical disabilities
which may be remedied.
A review of 3-A registrants
has been ordered by Lt. Col. El
mer V. Wooton, state selective
service chief, for the purpose of
weeding out possible 1-A youths.
