Miss Athene Hill is writing to Honorable George B. Schwabe, M.C. urging his support for the Gurney Bill, S. 2303, which proposes a Selective Service Act to include teen age boys for a limited term of service. She believes this will allow young men to return home, resume their education, and establish themselves in civilian life, while also allowing family men in service to return to their families. Schwabe responds, stating he will consider her views and give the bill serious consideration, with the welfare of the country in mind.
