SELECTIVE SERVICE REGISTRATION OCTOBER 16, 1940 * * * SELECTIVE SERVICE MASSACHUSETTS STATE HEADQUARTERS 93 Massachusetts Avenue, Boston, Mass.
September 25, 1940
Subject: Registration for Selective Service To: Town Clerk, Town of Wakefield.
In accordance with the proclamation of the President of the United States, dated September 16, 1940, the registration of all male persons, whether citizens of the United States or not, other than those exempted by law, who have reached the twenty-first anniversary of the day of their birth but who have not reached the thirty-sixth anniversary of the day of their birth on or before October 16, 1940, will take place on October 16, 1940, between the hours of 7 A. M. and 9 P. M.
It is contemplated that approximately fifteen per cent of the total population will register.
In order for you to determine the number of registrars to provide for, it is estimated that registration of each registrant will take approximately ten minutes but it is anticipated that during the evening or after working hours there will be a rush which will require a greater number of registrars.
If more registrars are required than the normal election machinery provides, it is suggested that volunteers be obtained from your home Defense Committee and have them available for use should the occasion demand.
Selective Service Regulations will be delivered to your office as soon as available in sufficient number to provide each polling place with one copy.

TOWN CLERK
