treatment for veterans In fed
eral hiring. The civil service
commission has already an
nounced rules for granting such
preference in Jobs requiring
clWl service certification.
The commission said all Jobs
In the Tennessee valley author
ity, the federal bureau of in
vestigation, the board of gover
nors of the federal reserve sys
tem and the inland waterways
corporation were outside the
civil service act. Small numbers
of Jobs in other agencies are
similarly unclassified.
Veterans Come First
The new regulations, con
forming with the veterans' pref
erence law, provide that no non
veteran shall be hired as ele
vator, messenger, guard or cus
todian as long as a qualified vet
eran is available.
Whenever experience is count
ed in consideration for a Job, the
length of time spent In service
will be counted if the applicant
Just before entering the service
held a Job similar to the one
for which he is applying.
To Get Ratings
First choice for all jobs will be
applicants with "10-point pref
erence" who were formerly em
ployed by the agency concerned.
Ten-point preference ratings are
given disabled veterans, widows
of veterans who served in active
duty during a war or in a cam
paign for which a campaign
badge was authorized, and wives
of disabled veterans who are not
themselves qualified for civil
service appointment.
Next In line come 10-point
preference Job seekers who were
not employed by the agency
previously. The requirement that
10-jolnt preference candidates
get first crack at jobs does hot
apply to professional and set
entific positions for which the
basic salary is more than $4,uuu
a year.
The rules also provide for
cancellation of age, height ana
weight requirements for ap
pointment and promotion ot vet
erans and for waiving otner
Dhvsical requirements on rec
ommendation of a physician.

How to Greet a
Wounded Soldier
Charlie Jenkins got back from
overseas the other day, dis
charged for wounds... end he
(wa pretty well banged up.
Naturally, onr town felt
mighty bad about It We wanted
to sympathize with him and
kelp him. Bnt Doo Walters set
as straight about that.
: He said that what Charlie
jWanted most was to be accepted
s one of the gang again ... as If
nothing had happened. So we
sked him over to pitch horse
ahoes with his good hand, and
njoy a friendly glass of beer
and chow the fat like old times.
And you should have seen him
pick up I From being scared of
meeting people, Charlie got his
confidence back and soon be
came his own self again. '
From where I alt, Doo Walters
gave us the right steer. The
wounded men coming home
don't want onr sympathy or onr
overenthnslaatlo help. They
want to be treated like the rest
of ns . . . with a chance to work
and lead a normal life. And
that's the least we can off er them.
