required by law to keep
the local Selective Service
board, with which they are
registered, informed of
their address and to carry
their classification card
(DSS Form 57) on their per-
son at all times, announced
Leland Barrows, acting WRA

WAC To Enlist
Nisei Women
Five hundred nisei wo-
men are scheduled to be
recruited for the Women's
Army corps and will be en-
listed about Sept. 1 or on
the date of inauguration
of the WAC, according to
word received here from
Leland Barrows, acting WRA

The date on which the
recruiting team will visit
Amache has not yet been
set. Applicants outside
centers will apply at Army
recruiting centers, said
Barrows.
WESTERN UNION
AGENT TO VISIT
A Western Union agent
will visit the center in
the near future to discuss
with Assistant Director
Henry Halliday the possi-
bilities of establishing
a telegraph station in the
center.
Negotiations have been
made for the establishment
of this station, and ac-
cording to the last report
received from Western Union,
the company did not believe
that there would be suf-
ficient business. Whether
such a station will be
established or not will
depend entirely upon the
possibilities of suffi-
cient business.

has been approved by both
United States and Japa-
nese governments, and all
persons listed have been
notified.
September 1 is still
the tentative date set by
both governments for the
sailing of the Gripsholm.
