Registrants Must
Notify Board Os
Change Os Address
Registrants under the Selective
Training and Service Act must notify
their local boards of any change of ad
dress or become liable to severe pen
alties provided by the Act, Brig. Gen.
Sion B. Hawkins, State Director of
Selective Service, warned them today.
Director Hawkins said he had been
! advised by National Selective Serviee
I Headquarters that many cases of de
j linquencies investigated by the De
partment of Justice have been due to
carelessness of registrants concerning
their duty to report changes of ad
dress, or ignorance of the law requir
ing them to do so, s
The Selective Service Act provides
that any registrant who violates the
law shall be liable to fine and impri
sonment, the Director pointed out.
This punishment, he also called to at
tention, is specified as “by imprison
ment for not more than fiye years of
a fine of not more than 810.000 or
by both such fine and imprisonment.
It is the policy of the Selective
System, Director Hawkins said and
of the Department of Justice which
|s charged with enforcement of the
Act, to take action in those cases
where there is willful intent to vio
late the law. Nevertheless, he stressed
investigation of borderline cases is
taken up much valuable time of local
boards and of Department of Justice
agents which should be devoted to ur
gent work for National Defense.
