ABILITY TESTS i
FOR RELEASED I
SOLDIER BOYS1
NEW YORK, May 8 (by Associated
Press).—Ability testB for discharged j
soldiers seeking executive or clerical *
positions have been authorized by the
war department for the twenty-two C
large demobilization camps, Sherwin °
Cody, managing director of the Na
tional Schools of Scientific Business,
announced here recently. ‘
The tests, to be given only to men ,
requesting them, will be instituted by (
Mr. Cody, with the co-operation of the (
educational department of the Young (
Men’s Christian Association, and ]
classifications of candidates will be (
filed with employers through the ,
United States employment service, ,
the Y. M. C. A. and local chambers of {
commerce. In addition the men them- ,
selves will receive certified copies of
their records.
The Cody tests, applied by the non- '
profit-making Associated Schools to f
several thousand office workers and (
high and grammar school pupils in
New York and other large cities, were
adapted to army conditions by the *
committee on classification of person- "
nel of the war department. Their use |
in connection with the demobilization
of the military forces, it was declared,
would give employers definite informa- <
tion regarding the capabilities of men
applying for business positions, as
against the general appeal of the war
work and employment agencies for
places for former soldiers on the
ground of patriotism.
The army tests, Mr. Cody said,
would require only thirty minutes’
time and would be given to applicants
for positions as clerks, bookkeepers,
office managers, correspondents and
salesmen. Authority to introduce the
plan generally into the cantonments, ,
he stated, had followed a favorable re
port by army officers on an applica
tion of the scheme to a group of forty
six men at Camp Upton, N. Y.
Mr. Cody gave the opinion that use
of the test records would aid materi
Ily in solving the problem of the un
mployed Boldier in the clerical Held,
ssertlng that few employers would
esltate over an opportunity to select,
ccording to their needs, men scien
iflcally "measured” in general and
schnical ability.
