He said: “It will be of considerable con venience to Selective Service if men will register with the Board having jurisdiction over the area- in which .the place of residence is located. This is the permanent and not the temporary residence. In the case of men who are tempor arily absent from homo, it is, Of course, permissible to register with the nearest Local Board which will forward the registra tion card to the home board of the registrant “However,” in the case of com muters, they should, by all means, register with their home boards and not with some board in the city in which they work. “There is considerable advan tage to the registrant in register ing with his home, board,” General Brown said. “The registrant will make the acquaintance of the board having jurisdiction over his classification and induction.
