This policy is operative on a national na-tional basis, Mr. Pickett says, under un-der direction of Paul V. McNutt, war manpower director. "It can be assumed," Mr. Pickett Pick-ett says, "that the returning vet- j erans prefer war essential jobs, and our experience indicates this is true, but they are free to accept ac-cept other work of their choice, , particularly if it offers greater j permanency." This modification of stabliza- J tion requirements affects particularly particu-larly the veteran who is returning to civil life under handicap of disability, such as those whose ' wounds incurred in action incapacitate inca-pacitate them for further military work. Full record of all such hospital hos-pital cases are provided the home office of the U. S. E. S. office in advance of his arrival home, in the form of complete registration cards prepared at the hospital from which the discharge is issued. is-sued. One of the U. S. E. S. duties as clearing house for veterans is to assign trained and competent interviewers to the discharge hospitals hos-pitals for preparation and forwarding for-warding of these experience records rec-ords to the veteran's home office. |
