College Graduates
Will Face Difficulty
In Securing Jobs
Oregon's record number of
college graduates this year will
find the competition for jobs
keener than at any time since
before the world war, according
to the State Unemployment Com
mission In announcing extensive
plans to register students and
to list suitable job openings
through its 29 local employment
offices.
Nearly 6,000 young men and
women will be graduated from
Oregon's 17 instiutions of higher
learning in the next few weeks
and probably half of them will
be actively seeking work, accord
ing to a survey just completed
by the Multnomah County Vet
erans Committee, which is co
operating with the State Employ
ment Service in the campaign.
A goodly number have lined up
their future activity but the pro
portion of those hired in advance
is materially below recent years.
"As a clearing house for em
ployers adding to their forces
and for thousands of workers just
entering the labor market, the
Employment Service hopes to
broaden its area of usefulness,"
commented State Director Earl
Lovell in announcing the inten
sive job campaign.
Advance registration of those
graduating students still un
placed already is under way at
several local offices. These rec
ords, including actual experience
basic training and job preference,
will be forwarded to offices near
est the student's home town
whether in Oregon or some near
by state. An inventory of avail
able applicants will be furnished

employers in each district. If a 1 ('
graduate is open to offers from
other areas, he will be placed
on these lists as well. , .
Special attention will be given
veterans, who make up almost
two-thirds of those being gradu
ated. Because of their maturity
and wide experience, these form
er service men and women are
expecting to find many openings
in their chosen life work.
