Civil Service Conwnission has noti
fied all of its 3.000 boards of ex
aminers that ihey should put forth
their best effoits to secure these
urgently needed workers. While
examinations arc now held weekly
in 450 cities, the Commission
states ihat arrangements will be
made to have an examination held
at any accessible place where a
small class of applicants can be
secured. The entrance salaries
lar.ge from $1,000 to $1,200 a year
Promotion is reasonably rapid to
these whose services prove satisfac
tory. No appointments can be
made to these or other positions in
the Federal classified civil servije
un'ess authorized by the Civi! Ser
vice Commission under the civil
service law. Any information to
the contrary is unauthorized. This
is a splendid opportunity to serve
your country. Full information
