Description
The documents in this folder relate to the duties and operations of the Selective Service System under the leadership of Director Lewis Hershey. Many of the items within the folder are memoranda on the topic of occupational deferments. There are also statistics on the national military manpower pool. Also, letters discuss draft order and responsibilities to assist veterans with employment. Of interest is the inclusion of Public Law 473 and an assessment of its impact on deferment policy.
