HERSHEY SAYS
CALLS FOR MEN
MUST BE FILLED
General Lewis B. Hershey, in a
letter appearing in the Selective
Service bulletin declares that our
nation must mobilize before it can
demobilize. General Hershey writes:
Selective Service was born whsu
. America began to:mobolize, Patriotir
citizens joined this system during
those earth-shaking days of 1940 to
give their efforts to make this. nation able to survive.
Selective Service, on state and local levels, has been guided through
a series of serious situations by the
untiring: efforts of these _ citizens.
The establishment of Selective Sertvice during peace time was the first
task. Under the circumstances it required good judgment and the maximum of human understanding for its
operation on all levels.
‘Pearl Harbor marked the end of
this first phase—and the beginning
of the second. The nation was in war.
It entered war with more men in the
armed. forces by far than in any former war. Selective Service had a
major part in the accomplisiment of
this result, Pearl Harbor changed
the tempo of mobilization. The task

at these strengths so long as the
need exists. Our second job is to do
the first job without removing from
war industries and essential agriculture: men whose loss would prevent them from meeting their objestives even though they utilize to
the maximum all other available
manpower. The third job of Selective Service is to meet, day by day,
its responsibilities to the returning
veteran, and to make ready to do its
share in reconstruction after the
lose of hositilities—not alone in demobilization, but alsoin necessary
measures to help all Americans to
