Federal Service
Examinations For
College CaIiher

With the opening today Of
the first Federal-Service En-
trance Examination. the Civil
Service Commission oepan a
new drive to recruit greater
numbers CT collcge-cal.ber
persons To- the Federal civil
service each year. Applicant
have until November 1s -
file for the first written test to
be given December 10 in r,ore
than 1000 examination CEN
terS throughout the country,
the Commission said.
The examination is designed
to help fill a Government
need for more young people
of college -caliber who can be
placed in jobs at entrance
levels and who have the po-
tential to develope into super
visors and, later, top mana
gers and specialists. Positions
to be filled through the ex-
animation are in almost every
kind of Government work.
Both specialists and nom
specialists are needed.
Commission Chairman Phil
ip Young described the ex-
animation as a means ito
meet the need for a broader
and yet simpler recruiting
system which will develope a
bigger supply of outstanding
candidates for a wider variety
of entrance-level positions"
He said it would replace
nearly 100 college-level ex-
aminationS previously used to
examine potential employees
I'm the past" he sid
whenever we needed men al
the middle or higher levels
we frequently obtained them
from local governments, uni
verSities, and industry. These
sources are now our competi-
tors and the competition is
growing more intense. We are
, faced, therefore, with the i'm.
mediate necessity of greatly
increasing our intake of col
lege-caliber recruits if we are
to have available for the fu-
ture enough trained persons
with the ability to shoulder
the responsibilities placed or
on the Government by oul
world leadership"

Bates Confers
With Rhee
on Okinowo

OKINAWA, Oct. 81 - From
this strategic area, Cong. VIM.
H. Bates reports interesting
talks with President Rhee out
side of Pusan this weekend,
and adds that Rhee continues
very emphatic in his views re-
garding the liberation of Ko-
rea. The Salem Congressman
is a member of the special in
vestigating committee now stu
dying military and civil prob
lens in the Far East.
Commenting upon his con-
ference with the South Korean
President, Bates writes: at is
very evident that Rhee would
like to start the fighting all
over again. His goal is under
standable and consistent with
ours, but methods differ. I
could not give too much Gre
dence to his threats of con-
tinued war because without
United States logitical support,
his troops could not fight
long.
We have flown over most of
OkinaWa in a helicopter in or
der to see land acquisitions,
present and contemplated by
our military services. We have
already taken over 10000 acres,
and plan to acquire about IL,
600 more. This poses serious
problems to Okinawa who
must be relocated. Land of an
cradle nature is scarce and
much destroyed by war con-
version to air strips, etc.

Little Time For
Christmas Parcels

Two weeks remain for the
mailing Of Christmas parcels
to our armed forces stationed
throughout the world. It is
also time to mail Christmas
greeting cards by surface mail
to the service men stationed
in the Far East. This area
includes Japan, Korea, Okino-
wa, Guam, and the other Pa
cific islands.
Postmaster Joseph P.W. Finn
advises that Christmas cards
for service men outside of
the continental United States
must be sealed and first class
postage prepaid. He also not
ed that there are approx
mately 100 Army post Offices
throughout the world which
require custom declarations on
packages. Persons mailing to
APO's should inquire of their
local post office whether or
not custom declarations are
required.
Parcels for Navy and Mar
inc Corps personnel serving in
the most remote areas should
be mailed at once.
Postmaster Finn said fur
ther that there we're prohi-
billions against mailing cigar
cites and other tobacco pro-
ducts, and coffee to some Ar
my and Navy Post Offices ov-
erseas. The local post Office
will give mailers the desired
information.
The actual last day for
sending greeting cards by or
binary mail to the armed for
ceS overseas is November IS,
and by Air Mail up to Deem
ger l, to assure delivery by
Christmas.
The Post Office Department
in Washington, in a statement
on Christmas ,Gail for the
Armed Forces Overseas says,
parcels containing
foodstuffS subject to spoilage
and breakase in transit are
likely to reach overseas des-
tination unfit for use"
Other recommendations list
ed by the Post Office Depart
ment in mailing parcels to
the armed forces overseas are:
/. Boxes for over eas ship
ment should be Of strong con-
struction.
2. Each box should be Sc
curely tied with strong cord
Sealing with gummed tape i;
/ not satisfactory.
3. Boxes should contain GU
shioning material so that thu
contents will ne tightly pack.
ed. Loose packed boxes arr
likely to be crushed.
4. Flberboard boxes should
be securely wrapped in heavy
paper.
5. Don't mail matches OF any
kind, or lighter fluid.
6. Addresses must be legible
and prepared in typewriting or
ink, preferably by hand-writ-
ing, directly on the wrapper
rather than on a label. 1t is
highly desirable that a slip of
paper containing the names
and address of the sender and
addresses, together with list
of the contents be enclosed in
each parcel so as to provide
identification and proper dis
position in the event parcel
gets broken open.
7. Military address should
be clear and include all ne
cessary Identification numbers.
8. Inscriptions such as "Mer-
ry Christmas, please do not
open until Christmas, Happy
New Year, with Best Wish
es", may be placed on the
parcel so as not to interfere
with the address or a card

may be enclosed with like in
scriptions.
g. Registration and insur-
ance is advisable on all valu-
able mail to servicemen.
10. Postal money orders are
recommended for the trans
initial of money to members
OF the armed forces. Expor-
tation of currency to overseas
military post Offices is prohi-
olted In many cases and will
not be accepted for mailing
