IRE G RITE s
CHAR G e D-Senator Carl
son. Republican Of Kansas, the
ranking minority member Of
the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee. says he has received
many complaints that veterans
preference is not being adhered
to by the Post Office Depart
ment in Job appointments. Sen
ator Carlson said the COM
plants are being made by vet
Grams and veterans organiza-
tons.
Although Senator Carlson
did not specify what kind Of
jobs were involved. it's under
stood that they are rural letter
carrier and postmaster jobs.
Or course, these jobs are in
a rather gray area. for al
though they are under civil
service. the biggest factor in
securing these Jobs Is political
backing. Nevertheless. the law
does provide that veterans get
5 points credit In their exams
for these Jobs and that disabled
veterans get 10 points and be
placed on top Of the Job eligible
list.

days ago-against four news
papers. Five other major
dailies closed voluntarily at the
time, but one, the Post. re-
sumed publication March 4.
The decision Of the printers
union rank-and-file was made
at q stormy meeting at which
the members booed officers
who urged acceptance Of the
proposed contract.
Speakers opposing the offer
indicated dissatisfaction that q
reduction in the work from
36H to 35 hours would not
come until the second year Of
the proposed contract.
They regarded two addition
al days Of paid sick leave as
inadequate and they expressed
disappointment at failure Of
negotiators to obtain a fourth
week Of vacation after one
years employment. They
claimed that would have pro-
vided additional job oppor-
tunities.
Other Developments
In two other major develop
ments yesterday, the striking
Stereotypers Union ratified q
contract agreement with the
publishers, and the Photo
engravers Union voted to au-
thorize its leaders to call a

satisfactory contract by 4 pm.

Besides the printers and
stereotypers. a third striking
union. the ITU Mailers, Is ne
gotiating for a new pact.
And in addition to the photo
engravers, five other non-strik-
ing craft unions are seeking
new contracts. All the news
paper unions here with the
exception Of the independent
Deliverers Union are AFL-CIO
affiliates.
In Cleveland, Ohio, negotia-
tors try again today to settle
contract disputes that have
forced that city's two news
papers-the Plain Dealer and
the Press & News-to suspend
publication for 100 days.
The Cleveland blackout has
thrown 5000 newspaper people
out Of work. Some 10000 went
idle from their regular Jobs In
New York when the strike here
began, but the Post, in break
ing from the publishers ranks
and resuming publication, put
about 1900 back to work.

NEW YORK (AP).-The bond
market wallowed in midsum-
mer doldrums last week.
Treasury bond prices showed
a very slight downward drift
on Monday, wavered back and
forth a bit the next three days
and stood almost stock still at
Fridays closing session.
Corporate bonds also held
within a narrow range. Prices
were mixed and trading was
slow most Of the time, but the
week ended on a feeble upbeat.
Municipal bonds sagged
slightly under pressure Of some
big new offerings. The hesita-
ton put an end to three weeks
of an upward creep in prices
for tax-exempt State and city
issues.
Some traders explained the
extreme dizziness in the Govern.
ment market in terms of pos
sible future moves by the
