How can the discharged serviceman get job!
Here are the rules, and some good advice, too

YOUNG Marine just home from Tarawa
n stepped into New York's Veterans oerV-
ice Center at IL 80 one morning. he was
depressed, anxious, worried about the tuture.
The malarial chills that came back again and
again had resulted in his discharge is there
lob for nx?' was the not very original out
desperate question of this 23-year-old who
had worked around meat markets before his
experience with the butchery of Tarawa
That was II 80. BY 2:30 that afternoon
physician had examined him and warned that
his work in and out of meat refrlgerators
would be dangerous: vocational consultant
had dug out the fact that he had spent two
wears with radar unit and knew little about
radio; and the placement office had located an
open radio inspectors job in Civil Service.
BY $50 pm, the young man was all set
at $1,000 year in a job with future.
Was that Marine lucky? Yes, but not in the
way you may suspect There was nothing
exceptional in the handling Of his case or IN
the results achieved. He was lucky only
because he was looking for job when
Jobs we're plentiful. And because Uncle Sam
had already established smooth mechanism
that picks up veterans at one end and turns
them out employed civilians at the other.
New Job Center
lHE Veterans Service Center to which that
young Marine came for help is compare
lively new development among the agencies
established to help returning servcemen To-
cate jobs Most men in the armed forces have
long been familiar with the part their local
draft boards and the local United States
Employment Service Offices would play in
helping them back to civilian life The Vet
erans' Service Centers being set up across the
country represent the latest bull 's-eye in the
job target set up by Uncle Sam at which all
returning veterans should aim. Here under
one roof are gathered representatives of
almost all the organizations that are set up to
aid returning soldiers.
Actually, because of the labor shortage,
there is no veterans problem today. But
there will be problem tomorrow. And that
tomorrow is very close. The end of this year
will see real shrinkage in jobs. And every
veteran is going to have to do some hard
thinking, some tough thinking That's why,
at the request of the editors of THIS WEEK
Magazine, have gathered together all the
facts that you, the veteran. and you, his rep
resentative at home, should have when the
soldier returns 70 civilian life
That return is going to be hard - very
hard. The veteran must be prepared to make
four separate adjustments. Here they are:
First, he must be psychologicaly prepared
and adjusted to look for job. This means he
must be ready to 60 to work and must know
what he wants.
Second, he must know lust what To do To
Evening star., 1944-08-27

Third, he must use his own interest, initia.
tive and imagination to capitalize on all the
means at his disposal. In other words, the
same rules that always were successful in lob
hunting still hold.
Fourth, perhaps most difficult of all, will
be the final adjustment - the ultimate int.
grafton of the serviceman back into civilian
life He must be able to hold the job he finds
and he must be able to find happiness and
growth in that job This means, simply that
he must not expect his war record to do his
job for him.
Now, let's look at these points, one by one.
l. Do You Want Job?
Or COURSE, the first thing the veteran must
do is to make sure that he does want Job
He may be planning to take long vacation
or 20 back to school - or start his own busi.
ness. Three out of every 10 servicemen,
according to u recent poll, want to go into
business for themselves - want to be
their own bosses. The government can
help here. too. For those who can show
reasonable expectation of business success
there's available a 5000 government loan
under the terms of the CT Bill of Rights Law.
That's $1,000 less to scrape together from
relatives and friends The Commerce Depart
ment is now preparing books for servicemen
describing the operations of some 20 types OF
small businesses In addition, the Veterans
Service Center will be glad to advise him on
the availability of loans. and will. in many
cases. introduce him to special groups of bus-
nessmen who will discuss his plans with him
and point out their advantages and disad-
vantages
For many veterans. the most logical road
to tomorrow will be by way of schools and
colleges - degree to be completed, spe-
cihc skill to be sharpened at trade or pro-
fessional school, And Uncle Sam has planned
considerable constructive help here, too A
refresher or retrainer course is open to every
