SOLDIERS MAY
|. HOLD CITY JOBS,
SAYS WEAVER

Submitting second legal opinion
on the point of the eligibility Of sol
diers, residing here as enlisted men
for more than q year and maintain
ing at the same time technical res
|idence elsewhere. for positions under
the civil service. p. L. Weaver. first
deputy city and county attorney,
cleared up the last doubts in the
minds OF the commissioners on the
point last night.
BY his opinion, the civil service will
recognize as properly qualified appli.
cants, so far as residence is concern
Ied, soldiers who are discharged after
being stationed here q year or more.
Weayer's opinion applies not only
to civil service jobs. though It was
written expressly for the civil ser.
vice commission. It applies to all
city and county Offices covered by the
municipal act.
The chief doubt as to whether sol
Glers are qualified applicants for civ.
III service Jobs sprang from q sec.
ton of the municipal act where II Is
stated all employees Of the city and
county must have actually resided
here for more than year before their
appointment. As 3 soldier. like Q stu
dent, does not lose his residence
when he Is taken from one state to
another during his enlistment, 1t was
argued that the time served by q
soldier coming from the mainland
did not count toward his residence in
a residence here he would have to
remain year after his discharge
from the army Weaver has exploded
this theory with his opinion.
Raymer Sharp win be the chief
examiner of the applicants for civil
service Jobs. His appointment to that
place was definitely made last night
The date Of the examinations has
been set for October %, which falls
on Saturday. It Is expected that more
than 100 applicants will take the ex-
aminations. Jesse p. Makainai was
appointed assistant examiner and Ha-
waiian interpreter. and Pete Baron
was made the gymnasium instructor.
Sheriff Jarrett notified the commits
sion last night that there were two
vacancies in his department, one oc-
curing by reason of discharge, the
other by resignation Harry K. Clark,
formerly receiving clerk Of the first
watch, resigned to go to the coast.
