The original announcement of n new deferment program said only "a very limited number of younger men would qualify, per haps not moro than 120,000. 30 Per Cent A selective service official acknowledged today, however, that the program allows the de ferment of at least twice that, number, or 30 per cent of all men under 30 who were classi fled 2-A or 2-B as of January 1. On that date, 4,198,000 men were in the two classes, which covered deferments in occupa tions other than agriculture, but only about 810,000 were under 30. The 30 per cent formula thus allows the deferment of up wards of 240,000 men 18 through 29 In addition to the 30 per cent to bo certified for deferment by 15 government agencies cover ing all fields of war production and war supporting activities, local boards still may defer umrknt-Q thnv reenrd ns essential.
