Meanwhile, draft boards' authority to order induction of men in the 149 higb-alriI , positions recently designated as critical oc- * i pa tions to give them super-eli-bility for extended occupational ifennent was restricted sharply. The boards, which hitherto have id complete control over each dividual's case, subject only to appeal board rulings, were forbidden to order the induction of any man with the required skills without referring the case to tha employment service. Furthermore, they were ordered to refer the case to the employment service even if an appeals board has agreed with them that the particular man does not deserve occupational deferment despite his qualifications to fill a critical occupation. In doing so, they must give the man at least a 30-day postponement of induction, and then, if thg employment service directs it, reconsider his case and give “the most serious consideration" to granting him the defernertt it has previously refused. Although the occupational deferment eligibility of men aged 18 to 25 has been limited even if they hold "essential” jobs in essential industries, there is no such limitation on the deferment eligibility of men in that age bracket who hold “critical” jobs.

are we. You are preparing for their education, fitting them for a career, and we are planning for them as the homemakers of the future.
