![["Dr. Nelson is inquiring about the provisions of the Selective Service Draft Extension Bill and whether it provides for the discharge of men currently in service. Representative George Schwabe explains that efforts were made to include an amendment for the discharge of men in service, but it was not successful. He expresses his belief that the voluntary system has not been given a fair trial and that military authorities have not made enough effort to discharge men who should have been discharged. Schwabe assures Dr. Nelson that he is doing everything possible to provide a fair deal for men in service and secure their early discharge."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_047_1_6_47_0018.jpg "Concerns Regarding the Selective Service Draft Extension Bill")
![["The document includes two letters from individuals protesting against the rules and regulations of the Armed Forces and advocating for the discharge of service men who have not completed their college courses before entering the service. The first letter, written by George B. Schwabe, expresses sympathy with the protest and states that more mature men should be used for policing duties instead of young boys. The second letter, written by L. D. Wyant, highlights the injustice faced by servicemen who are not receiving the same opportunities for release as others, such as athletes and actors. Both letters call for a reevaluation of the treatment of servicemen and emphasize the importance of education and fair treatment for all individuals serving in the armed forces."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_047_1_6_52_0028.jpg "Injustice in the Armed Forces: A Call for Change")
