Placement is a part, said they
had accepted his resignation
"with prejudice." They said he
had been questioned during Carr s
investigation of the service.
Carr made the favoritism

clared that some Farm Placement
officials deliberately "horned off"
domestic workers who sought farm
work. Mexican nationals were get-
ling the jobs, he said.
Bird's immediate boss was Don
E. Park. San Diego Farm Place
ment supervisor who resigned
Aug. 1, also "with prejudice."

Concerning the two men who
resigned, the Personnel Board no
ted that a resignation "with prej
udice" means that the employe
