Armstrong, State Director, that the law clearly places upon the registrant the duty of keepâ€" ing in touch with his local board at all times. Men who have had a deferred classification for a stated period of time and have failed to report to their local boards at the expiration of this time will run the risk of being conâ€" sidered delinquents if they do not imâ€" mediately report. uiss ane "The Basis For an Enduring Peace," from the Jewish pointâ€"ofâ€"view, will be the topic of discussion. Participating in the discussion will be Judge Ulysses S. Schwartz, moderator, Professor Louis Gottschalk and Rabbi Jacob J. Weinstein. Bernard M. Epstein will be chairman for the evening. . : It has come to the attention of this Headquarters that some married regâ€" istrants, originally classified in IIIâ€"A, have subsequently been divorced but failed to report to their local boards this change of status which mighti alter ‘their classifigations. Men holdâ€" ing a IHâ€"A or IIIâ€"B classification card must, therefore, be prepared at all times to justify such a classification, Any Selective Service re‘bu:nt who holds a IIâ€"A or IIB classification with no expiration date showing on the card and who has held such a card for more than six months should imâ€" mediately report to his local board for a review of his case. Men originally classified in IIâ€"A or IIâ€"B because of employment in a war industry, who have since left such industry without reporting the fact to their local boards may be considered delinquents the State‘ Director pointed out. Every registrant under the Selective Service Law who has any reason to believe that his records are not comâ€" plete and accurate in the files of his local board must report to his local board either in person or by letter at once. Otherwise, if he remains deâ€" linquent, his case will be turned over to the United States attorney for inâ€" vestigation and possible prosecution.
