.REVISION HADE
IN PHYSICAL TESTS .
S'
Draft Boards To Provide
Examinations 21 Days
Before Induction.
Officials of /the county selective
service “boards have received instruc
tions concerning the sweeping d?vis-
i ions of the system for physical exam
inations of draft-eligibles. Selective
service has abolished “screening" ex
aminations by local boards and ar
rangements for final examinations
are^fo be given at least 21 days be-
fore’ actual induction. , '
Under the new system which is to
'become fully effective February 1,
! post-rinduction furloughs also are
! abolished., Currently these are three
weeks for those inducted into the
army and ''one week foij those tvho
go into the naVy, t *
Aimed at complying.with the man
date from congress for pre-induction
physical tests and eliminating uncer
tainty by draft eligibles over whether
their physical condition meets ser
vice standards, the new system will
work in this manner:
Men in class 1-A who are about
due for a call to service will be dis
patched to induction stations. There
they will be examined by army and
navy physicians. All will be sent
back home as civlliafta. with those j
who were found acceptable having!
assurance that they will not be or-1
dered to report for induction for at;
least three weeks.
It is intended, as a pool of phy-!
sically acceptable rAen is built up, to|
afford an even longer period between
examination and induction, but if a
man is not inducted within 90 days
a new pre-induction examination
will be required.
The army and navy examiners also
will classify acceptable men irf three
groups 1 “army general service,”
“army limited servicb" and “navy"
(including marines and coast guardj)
—according to their physical condi
tion. The navy demands a slightly
higher ciegree of physical fitness than
does the army.. The army accepts for
limited service men with physical
defects barring them from general
service.' - , «
Thereafter, calls to local draft
boards will be for a definite number
of army general service* army lim
ited service, and navy men, instead
of for an over-all total of men, as at
present.'.
The classification by induction sta
tion doctors, however* will be simply
a t^^f the degree of physical fitness.
A4^ar as practicable, wishes of the
drafted men regarding the branch of
service he enters will be followed.
The present system of sending men
to induction stations for examination
and immediate induction will contin
ue in use for meeting this month’s
draft quotas, cards also will begin
immediately to send men to the sta
tions under the new system in order
to, get it fully into operation by Feb
ruary 1.
The present “screening” examina
tion is given in Jthe draft registrant’s
home community to screen out those
obviously physically unfit for the
armed services. Although it is of
ficially abolished, any registrant who
believes he has an obvious defect
may request and be given an exam
ination by a local board physician.
Also any man who wishes no de-
^lay, will on request, be inducted im
mediately after passing his physical
examination rather than be returned
home as a civilian.
