Coss St. Roseburg Remember The WOCs When You're i mm i mm si eiTIS iCO IO DtuST By PETER ERSOM NEA Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON. Next time you're in a mood to cuss out the bureaucratG the underworked and overpaid employes of the federal government who are supported by the taxpayers save one or two kind words for the "WOC." A "WOC" ii government alphabet lingo for the people who work for Uncle Sam for nothing. Tliere are about fi.'i.OOO of them "on the payrolls." They are tech nically carried as employes work ing "Wilh Out Compensation." The Initials furnish the name. They are the unsung heroes who contribute as much of their time as they can to various government enterprises, expecting no other reward than the satisfaction of knowing that they're honest citi zens doing something for the good of their country. More than half of the WOCs are the volunteer members of the 3600 draft boards operating throughout the country. They haven't been as busy as they were in wartimes, because the armed services have been getting all the recruits needed by enlistment. But the average draft board of three to five members has the important job of local adminis tration of Selective Service regu lations. When the armed services call for draft quotas, draft board members meet regularly, go over regisl rations and decide who in (heir community is 1-A, and who is 4-F. Helping out the 13,000 draft board members are some 10,000 volunteer "advisers." Their job is to nelp tne registrants fill out the various Selective Service forms and keep records for the board. Doctors Hardest Worked Hardest working members of the draft board staffs, however, are the 7000 or more doctors who give Ihe preliminary physical ex amination to every draft regis trant. There are an average of two medical officers for every draft board. Since all these people have to go on living in their own com munities, and must make de cisions affecting the lives of the young men who come before litem, their responsibility is nol a small one. That these people work without pay is all the more to their credit. Veterans' Administration nlaces heavy reliance on its WOC work ers. At the head of the procession are some 1 l.(XH) "(hay Ladies." They go to school for training, I lien sign up for regular tours of duty In veterans' hospitals for ex tra service. Information on the slate of the nation's health, stream pollution and data for use in mortality sta tistics Is furnished by some 4J00 WOCs working for "the Federal Security Agency's Public Health Service. Others Serve Gratis Treasury's big Savings Bond campaigns each spring and fall would be impossible without thou sands of WOCs and other volun teer workers.

Clark of Iowa, national direc tor of the Savings Bond cam paign, is himself working with out compensation. Department of Agriculture has more than 10,000 WOC assistants scattered all over the country. Some 2100 are agricultural scien tists and laboratory workers on state payrolls. But they perform numerous reporting and advisory services for federal experiment stations where soil and plant studies are carried on. Volunteer weather observers ! number nearly 8000.

(.Pi Secretary of State Earl Newbry and Treasurer Walter Pearson defended their appointment of Robert Maclean, Waldport, as a state tax commissioner here Sun day night. At a testimonial dinner given for Maclean by friends here, the two officials said Maclean was a capable man. and a "good choice" for the position. The appointment, to become ef fective next month, has been criticized by some Republican leaders, mostly because veteran Commissioners Wallace Wharton and Earl Fisher will be let go. Each had served several terms. Pearson asserted, "no one is getting fired." adding that Whar ton's and Fisher's four-year terms expire in June. He said there was "no political deal" between him and Maclean, and that he owed no political debts. Maclean, a Democrat, was named because traditionally one member of the three-man Tax Commission represents the minor- m SWUI UU !

Pearson said. He is to replace Wharton, also a Demo, crat. Ray Smith, Portland, is to re place Fisher. Both are Republi cans. The third member of the commission, Carl Chambers, also ; a Reoublican. continues in office. i Pearson said he had considered ten persons for the appointment, but settled on Maclean because he knew he was a capable man and because Lincoln County never previously had been represented on the Tax Commission. Maclean has been a Lincoln County com missioner. The News-Review classified ads bring best results. Ph-ne 100. A. F. Walter Kresse, M. D. Physician and Surgeon U. S.
