SANTISEPTIC LOTION These Commandos IS WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 (IP) Carrying of classification as well as registration cards became mandatory today for all draft registrants who were less than 45 years old when they reg istered. National selective service headquarters said, however, that draft boards had been authorized to be "liberal" with delinquents who straighten out their records In the next two weeks. Objective of the requirement that both cards be carried was to reduce the number of persons delinquent for failure to. keep in touch with their boards a num ber that draft officials said was only a fraction of one per cent of all registrants. Those failing to carry both cards on their person "at all times" risk penalties as high as five years in prison and a $10, 000 fine. Price Holders Taken Off Indian, Eskimo Handicraft .

Walker, Independence, chair man of the assessment and taxa tion committee, said there is no need for monthly payments, and. that the administrative costs of collecting them would be prohi bitive.
