^ n September 16, 1974, I issued Proclamation No. 4313, announcing a program of earned return for those convicted arid accused of violating certain provisions of the Selective Service Act or the Uniform Code of Military Justice during the Vietnam conflict. Upon careful review of the progress of this program, I believe that many of those persons who could benefit from this program are only now learning of its application to their cases.
