G Employers Will Be Solicited For Job Openings For The Returning Veterans' Mrs. Mary H. Harmon, local manager of the United States Em- j ployment Service, today announc ed that employers in McCormick will be solicited for job openings to be filled by returning veterans, former war plant workers and others. The local job development cam paign, Mrs. Harmon said, parallels l a state and national campaign to promote the listing of jobs for ap proximately 6,200,000 returning service men and women, former erence whenever the veteran is qualified or when the employer specifies a veteran. “Since the jobs they will accept are not always listed, ex-service people too often have to walk the j streets looking for jobs, and then in many cases they do not find the jobs that are best suited to their qualifications. This, can be avoided in a great many cases if the jobs are listed with USES.” “We are doing everything possi ble to make the local USES offices a central community job clearing house where all employers and all workers including veterans, can get the best employment results,” Mrs. Harmon said, concluding her statement.
