The act is designed to provide for the corh- mon defense by increasing the per- sonnel of the Armed Forces of the | United States and provide for théir | training. A wilful violator may be | subjected to stringent penalties in- | cluding up to five years, or a fihe as high as $10,000 or both. Williams said that recently J. Edgar Hoover, Director of the FBI, had suggested, for the benefit of | those not familiar with the re~ quirements, observance of the fol- | lowing: | (1): Register promptly. (2) Fill { out and return your questionnaire promptly. Keep your local Board ad-| vised of your correct mailing | address. Report for examination and | induction when so ordered. Report changes in your fam- ily status ‘or occupation which 'may - have a bearing on your classification. Always carry your registra- tion certificate and classifi- cation notice on your person. If you have made an honest mistake, talk it over with your local Board. All male persons residing in the | United States or its possessions be- | tween the ages of 18 and 26 are required to register. Persons be- coming eighteen must register within five days after their eight- | eenth birthday. ‘Where investigation reveals viol- ations of the Selective Service Act, Williams said the facts will be pre- sented to the proper United States Attorney for a decision on prose- cutive action. He cautioned all registrants against making false or fictitious registration. The posses- sion of a -fraudulently - obtained, forged or altered registration certi- ficate or classification notice is also a violation of the Act.
