Since 1919
1942. The "imminence of selec
tion" provision has been elim
inated, but . the rule is contin
ued that dependents acquired
on or after December 8. 1941,
when war was declared, will
not be considered as a basis for
deferment. Any child born on
or after September 15, 1942,
therefore, will be considered as
having been conceived on or
after December 8, 1941. and
therefore will not be considered
as cause for deferment unless
medical., evidence., established
that birth was delayed.
Q. Are only registrants with
children eligible for class III-D
classification?
A. No. A registrant is placed
in class III-D if his local board
determines that his induction
would result in extreme hard
ship and privation to a wife.
child, or parent with whom he
maintains a bona fide family
relationship in his home.
Q. In determining whether
induction would cause hard
ship or privation to a regis
trant's dependents does the fact
that his wife or other depen
dents are working have any
weight?
A. Not necessarily, the local
board will consider only wheth
er or not the dependent, or de
pendents, could work, as a fac
tor in determining whether
they could maintain themselves,
if their financial Income were
limited to the allotment and
allowances they would receive
when the registrant i inducted.
Q. Why was class III-B, for
merly for men deferred for de
pendency who also are engaged
in an essential activity, elim
inated? l
A. Because with the excep
tion of men becoming 18 years
old and single men whose oc
cupational deferments are end
ed, the pool of registrants avail
able for induction is composed
largely of men with depen
dents. Registrants with collater
al dependents, or with wives
only, now will be reclassified
and those who must be deferred
because induction would cause
hardship to dependents will be
placed in class III-D. Those who
have dependent children will
be placed in class III-A, which
class will not be reclassmea
for induction until specific or
ders are issued by the director
of selective service. The other
dependency classification la
class III-C, which is for men
regularly engaged In agricul
hire who also have dependents.
Q. In reclassifying registrants
now in class III-A and class
III-B who have collateral de
pendents or wives only, will
their' occupational statui be con
sidered? A. Yes. In such reclassifica
tions, local boards are specifi
cs 1 1 y Instructed to consider
whether the registrant who, ac
cording to selective service reg
ulations, is no longer entitled
to dependency deferment
should be replaced in class
II-C because of agricultural oc
cupation, or In class II-A or
class II-B by reason of being a
necessary man In an activity
essential to the support of the
war effort.
Q. Why is there separate de
pendency classification for men
in agriculture?
A. Agricultural deferment
differs from other occupational
deferment in that it was made
indefinite by law; also because
when a class III-C registrant
loses his agricultural defer-

ment. by change of occupation
or because he Is no longer
deemed essential to agriculture,
his dependency status must be
considered before he can be
classified as available for in
duction, whereas when a class
II-C registrant, who has no de
pendency claim, is reclassified,
his new occupation only need
be considered, together with
the question of his age and phy
sical tltness for military ser
vice.
Q. When a man is placed in
class 1-A will he be inducted
immediately?
A. Class I-A means that
registrant is available for in
duction. Such registrants will
be called, in the sequence of
their order numbers and, inso
far as possible, in the following
order: Single men with no de
pendents, single men with col
lateral dependents, married
men with wives only, and fi
nally, when the specific ordor
is issued, men with children,
An order to report for induc
tion is mailed to a registrant at
least 10 days before the time
specified for reporting.
Q. What is the difference be
tween class I-A-O and class
IV-E?
A. Both classes are for men
who have been found to be
conscientiously opposed, be
cause of religious training and
belief, to military service in
which they might be ordered to
take human life. Class I-A-O
men are those whose objection
does not extend to noncombat
ant service with the armed
forces and they are called for
induction for such duty by or
der members. Class IV-E men
are opposed to both combatant
and noncombatant military ser
vices and are assigned, as their
order numbers are reached, to
work of national importance
under civilian direction.
Q. What is the draft status
of a man 38 years old or over
who was inducted into the
army but is transferred to the
enlisted reserve corps to en
gage in agricultural or other
essential activities?
A. He remains in class I-C,
which is for registrants who
have been Inducted into the
armed services, as be is still
under the jurisdiction of the
war department and subject to
recall by the army if he fails
to engage In essential work.
leaves such work, or his mili
tary service is needed.
Q. What is the difference be
tween the occupational defer
ment classifications, class II-A,
class II-B, and class II-C, and
how long is a man deferred in
each class?
A. Class II-A men are de
ferred because they are deemed
necessary to national health,
safety or interest in their civil
ian occupations such as medi
cal, dental and other scientific
professions, communic a 1 1 o n s
and., transportations, services,
etc. Class III-B men are key
