In the Offices of the United States
Employment Service in Washington
and everywhere this system has its
working units, the dictionary has
become a veritable bible" in the
stupendous job of fitting discharged
veterans into satisfactory civilian
jobs.
So important is it considered that
continual training as to the scope
of its contents Is given to inter-
viewers on the stats of USES offices
it was stated by Ernest v. Connolly,
Washington area director of the
War Manpower Commission, who
has had many years of first-hand
experience with the dictionary.
The dictionary is so useful that
two supplements and two of its
originally planned four parts have
been issued since the appearance of
part l in 1899. Two years of in
tensive research and preparation by
group numbering from 80 to so
experts were used in the writing
and verification Of the classifica-
tlons IN part one.
The dictionary's latest companion
manual, Special Aids for Placing
Military Personnel in Civilian Jobs"
issued in February, 1914, also is
proving of incalculable aid also. The
range of job lists which it sets up
totals many thousands and is as
broad as the complexities of modern,
workaday living.
Especially designed to dovetail
with these occupational listings are
standardized types Of application
cards for veterans seeking jobs.
These cards will give the inter-
viewers of the USES Offices birds
eye picture of the applicant" Mr..
Connolly said, land tallying with
the definition of the dictionary the
cards will constitute perfect supple
mentary interviewing tools With
the help of these tools, we hope to
more quickly fit the ex-service mem
bers either into the occupational
fields of their previous civilian ex-
periences or into the special new
ones to which they aspire as a re-
suit of their war training"
Let us suppose Washington vet
eran wants to try out an entirely
new one for which he thinks he is
equipped. Volume / of Oral
Trade Questions supplies the en-
ployment interviewer with certain
ABC queries. This aid enables
the interviewer to gauge almost in
stantly whether or not the applicant
has even rudimentary qualifications
in the field. If he has not, he is
counseled regarding training which
will adequately fit him for the line
he aspires to follow. If this train
ing is not feasible, he is advised re-
garding job openings which will use
his past training and experience.
Mr.. Connolly considers the Dis
tionary of Occupational Titles and
its various supplements Significant
as symbol of the rapid strides
made by the science of job place
ment in the past decade"
Job science has come of age in
time to give the veterans of this war
distinct advantage over their faith
ers mustered out of World War l."
he says.

USES Dictionary to Help Fit
Veterans Into Peucetime Jobs

fsional jobs is a task that can be done
most adequately when the transac-
| tion is based on thorough knowledge
lof both the worker and the work
opening. Thus our Offices must
learn as much as possible about jobs
and their related jobs in the work
family, SO as to avoid placing square
pegs in round holes. The dictionary
is the family tree for the jobs as it
defines all of the branches and inter-
marriages of the country's indus
trial composition"
The United States found a prece-
dent for it in the Dictionary of Oc-
cupations, published in 1927 by the
British Ministry of Labor.
Mr.. Connolly Is one of the Federal
Governments young career men,
but he is also a longtime expert in
the field of scientific job placement.
Born in Pittsburgh April 81, 1901,
he came to Washington in 1941 after
eight years in various capacities
with the Pennsylvania State En-
ployment Service. His business ex-
perience was with the Pittsburgh 81
Lake Erie Railroad as traffic rate
compiler and traffic dispatcher.
He is a graduate of the University
of Pittsburgh where he majored in
economics and is unmarried. His
sole ambition at the moment is to
eliminate guesswork from the analy-
sis of jobs that are available for re-
turning veterans, and to ascertain
how these veterans may best and
most happily fill them to their own
satisfaction, and that of their en-
ployers.

Many YET 10 Be Heard
On New Trade Bill

A long list tof witnesses still re-
mains to be heard by the House
Ways and Means Committee on
the administrations new reciprocal
trade bill as the committee heads
into another week of hearings on
what promises to become one of the
major legislative battles of this ses-
sion.
Irving Richter, legislative repre-
sentative of the CIO United Auto
mobile Workers, stuck by his in
dorsement Of the proposed extension
and broadening of the trade agree
ment program, as essential to the
maintenance Of peace and prosper
ity, during a long cross-examination
by Republican committee members
yesterday.
With the present act due to ex-
pire June IL, the pending Doughton
bill would extend it for three years,
with broader authority to make tar
iff reductions in future trade agree
ments to stimulate world trade after
the war. Since 1884 the law has
permitted cuts up to so per cent in
the Smoot- -Hawley tariff rates. The
pending bill would make possible re-
ductions up to so per cent in the
rates as they stood in January of
this year. This would mean maxi
mum overall reduction of IS per cent
in any rates already cut so per cent.
Under questioning by Represent
ative Knutson, Republican, of Mimi
esota, Mr.. Richter said tariff pro-
lection is not necessary for the auto
mobile industry. Mr.. Knutson said
it so happens the automobile indus
try has developed in such a way
that it can compete, but he insisted
there are other American industries
that cannot compete with foreign
wage levels without tariff protection.

Coroner j. A. Holland said the

Mrs. Nelson had been working as
a cook at the Stabley ranch. She

grabbing the dust pan when he sud-

Col. Roberts Tells Of Busy
Steamboat Days at Old Fl. Peck

"One of the steamboat landings
during the flourishing days of the
steamboat era was Old Fort Peck, -
Lieut.. Col. H. H. Roberts told the
Pioneer Trails association of GlaS-
goW-Fort Peck in a recent address.
The fort he describes as consisting
OF a 300 foot square stockade made
OF cottonwood logs and enclosing
various log buildings.
The stockade was built in 1867 by
Abel Farwell, member of the firm of
Durfee and Peck, who operated sew
eral trading posts along the Mis-
souri, river" Colonel Roberts related.
In 1871 the Milk River Indian
agency was moved to Fort Peck and
the stockade remained a combina-
ton trading post and Indian agency
until July IA, 1879, when the agency
was moved to Poplar creek and the
trading post abandoned.
The principal reason for the
Abandonment of old Fort Peck was
the fact that the Missouri river
was gradually washing away the
ledge upon which it stood. The exact
time at which old fort crumbled
into the river is not known. but is
believed to be just before the turn
OF the century.
Although old Fort Peck was never
army post. it often served as tenn
porary headquarters for military
and commissioners sent there
by the government to negotiate with
the Indians during the period pre-
ceding the historic Custer massacre.

of these conferences. but is said IL
have visited the fort privately or
numerous occasions"
Colonel Roberts also gave a de-
tailed and interesting account OF
the general history of Missouri river
navigation.
Although Marquette and Joliet
marked the spot where the Missouri
flowed into the Mississippi river in
1873, little was known of the Mis-
souri, until after the Lewis and Clark
expedition, he said.
The early settlers and traders.
largely dependent on streams for
transporting their products. used in
general four types of boats-canoes,
bull-boats. keelboats and mackinaws.
Shortly following the Lewis and
Clark expedition, the use of the
steamboat on the Missouri system
began, the first one travelling the
Missouri in 1911, while Fort Benton
was reached by steamboat in the
summer of 1860. The early steam
boats we're of the side-wheel type.
A statistical summary of the pas
and freight traffic in various
years OF the COS and 70's and men,
ton Of outgoing shipments is in
in the address.
Colonel Roberts presented the
Glasgow-Fort Peck chapter with a
OF the drawing and description
Of old Fort Peck prepared by Arthur
II. Buckley in 1887 from material
obtained from the Montana Histori-
cal society and other sources.

elderly rancher living northwest of
town, was driving a team of young
horses or a wagon when they be-

mile north of Hinsdale.
The spirited animals ran on into
town at top speed, into Montana
street, and then swung around the
circle in front Of the schoolhouse,
leaving town on the same street and
road on which they entered. They
"a another two miles back north
before Deputy Sheriff P. NJ. Chris
