All Portland Area Veterans looking for jobs are invited to the Portland Veterans Job Fair scheduled for the Exhibit Hall of the Memorial Coli seum Tuesday, May 1. The Fair begins at 9 a.m. and closes at 5 p.m. According to Phil Bogue, Metro Chairman of the spon soring National Alliance of Business, employer response to this fair has been “very positive. We expect that more than 80 employers will be there, most of whom have immediate or near future job openings for which they'd like to hire vets." Bogue said that the em ployer resp on se, both in terms of number of em ployers responding and the number of job openings they represent, is su bstan tially better than for either of 2 Job Fairs the NAB spon sored last year. Those 2 Fairs resulted in over 150 hires. “There's no magic in a Job Fair," said Don Flore, NAB Metro Director and General Chairman of the event. It’s- simply a convenient bringing together of vets looking for jobs, and employers with jobs who have indicated a desire to hire vets." Floren said that some veteran s' groups were critical of job fairs because they “promised much and delivered little". “We're trying to avoid that in 2 ways,” he said. “First, we’ve tried to limit em ployers at the Fair to those who have immediate or near future job openings. And we've stressed the particular need to offer jobs that can be filled with unskilled, un schooled vets. Second, we're trying to promote this thing honestly, not promising the vet a job; while at the same time emphasizing to him that the employers are there to hire and not just to talk." Employers who’ve not al ready been contacted but who might like to be represented are urged to call the NAB office, 226-4063, for further information. Redden sites Nixon corruption State Treasurer Jim Red den continued his attack on the Nixon administration be fore the Willamette Demo cratic Society, railing last week's record rise of the wholesale price index the result of "Nixon's let's-see what happens Phase III poli cies". Redden stated that Oregon has consistently been the first victim of the adminiatra- tion’s economic policies. "We are again the neglected step child of the federal govern ment", he said. Redden cited executive im poundment of appropriated funds, program cutbacks, re cord lumber and food prices as “devasting" to the Oregon economy and "indicative of the administration's inability to cope with the domestic and international economic crisis.” Redden referred to cor ruption in government as A SINKS Insurance freight claim tubs.
