QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
ON SERVICEMEN'S PROBLEMS

By DOUGLASS LARSON
NEA Staff Correspondent
Washington, April 13.—The Fed
eral government continues to be the
largest single employer of return
ing veterans. Here are some typi
cal questions regarding veterans'
preference for Federal jobs:
Q. Does a former Federal em
ploye who resigned and went
Into the army have the same re
employment rights as one who was
placed on a furlough status when
he was drafted?
A. Yes. There Is no difference
betwen the reemployment rights
of a former Federal employe
Whose appointment was termi
nated when he went into service
Apd those of an employe who was
placed on a furlough status. The
determining factor is whether the
veteran left to enter the armed
forces Immediately. If he held an
other Job between the time of in
duction and quitting the govern
ment he would have reemployment
Eights in that job but not with the
government.
Q. Does the “members-of-family"
rale which provides that not more
than two members of a family liv
ing under one roof may hold Jobs in
the Federal civil service apply to
Persons with veteran preference?
J A. No.
Q. I am a veteran. I submitted
claim for preference (including
supporting papers) with the
Service Commission when I
for an examination. There
been time enough for the
of my claim to be returned
I want to apply for another
Must I submit another
with the new application
I am about to flic?
No. Just fill out the new
Form 14 and attach It
Application, stating you have
submitted proof of your
for preference. Be sure to
the exact date, place and title

HOSPITAL BULLETINS
superintendent of

wao reported on the
by the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs
Henry Corden and other property
owners of Wales street, on the other
hand sought permission to amend
their complaint and file a bond.
Both motions were the result of a
State Supreme Court decision, in
which It was ruled the plaintiffs did
not file a sufficient bond and that
the plea of abatement of the de
fendants should have been sustain
ed by the trial court. Reference
was made, however, in the high
court's decision last month of the
possibility the plaintiffs may be able
to correct the defect on the bond.
Attorneys John H. Cassidy and A.
A. Rlbicoff, counsel for the Hart
ford concern, contended that the
high court by its decision intended
to end the entire issue in the case.
They stated that although error
was found on the pleadings, the
high court also decided the main
issue in the case when it ruled the
property involved constituted a
"lot” and not a "corner lot.”
Attorney William K. Lawlor
claimed the plaintiffs have a right
to amend their complaint and file
a proper bond, preparatory to a new
trial. He contended the high court
by its decision “never intended to
set aside the decision of the trial
court except on that one question
of a bond."
Judge Cornell, who in June, 1942,
found the issues for the plaintiffs,
today placed questions regarding
the decision of the high court. “If
the plea in abatement should have
been sustained then there are no
merits,” he commented in answer
to statements by counsel for the de
fendants that the high court ruled
on the merits. “Why should they
decide the matter that never came
before them,” he continued.
The decision on the plea of abate
ment, originally was given by Judge
Carl Poster, now a state referee.
The final decision in the trial was
handed down by Judge Cornell.
Numerous citations were submit
ted today to the jurist by counsel
in the case.

News Of
Connecticut
Washington, April 13.—(UP)—
President Truman today proclaimed
Saturday as a day of mourning and
prayer throughout the United States
in respect to the late Franklin D.
Roosevelt.
The presidential proclamation was
issued by Secretary of tSate Edward
R. Stettinius. At the same time, by
order of the president, Stettinius
ordered that:
1. Flags to remain at half staff
on all public buildings of the United
States for one month—until the
close of Monday, May 14.
2. All executive departments
and agencies of the government be
closed tomorrow afternoon—the day
of the funeral.
“X earnestly recommend ‘he peo
ple to assemble on that day (t omor
row) in their respective places of
divine worship," Mr. Truman’s proc
lamation said, “there to bow down
in submission to the will of almighty
God, and to pray out of full hearts
their homage of love adn reverence
to the memory of the great and good
man whose death they mourn."
Mr. Roosevelt, he said, lived to
see the assurance of victory in this
great war, but not to share it: and
he lived to see the first foundations
of the free and peaceful world to
which his life was dedicated, but not
to enter on that world himself.
“His fellow countrymen will sore
ly miss his fortitude and faith and
courage in the time to come," the
proclamation said.

URGENT APPEAL
FOR VOLUNTEERS
Scores Needed to Help
Sorting, Packing Clothes
in Local Drive
An urgent appeal for volunteers
to help In sorting and packing the
hundreds of pounds of clothing
pouring Into the state armory on
Field street was made today by of*
flcials of the city's clothing collec
tion campaign.
"Actually, the contributions are
getting out of hand as to the sort
ing and packing,” one official de
clared. “We need volunteers, men
and women alike who can come
down to the armory day or night
and lend a hand".
Three rooms of clothing are piled
high at the armory today and lack
of space is so acute the one truck
load of clothes could not be de
posited this morning on the arm
ory’s loading platform.
Up to now a schedule for volun
teers has ben maintained but this
was "tossed to the wind” today and
volunteers are urged to present
themselves at anytime of the day.
The appeal wil lbe renewed at to
day’s meeting of the war council
committee.
The city’s collection efforts offi
cially close on Sunday but it is anti
cipated that efforts will continue be
yond that day as Waterbury’s lags
behind its quota of one-half million
pounds,

port service when World War I
broke out and the Roosevelts turned
the Half Moon over to the Navy, felt
the President's death was a great
loss to the nation at this crucial
time.
"Like so many other Americans
today, I had great confidence that
world peace would be established
with Roosevelt at the helm and
many of our much-needed social
reforms would be affected after the
war. He was a man of the people
and for the people.
The under-privileged were always
very close to his heart, even in
those early days.
"He was always very much In
terested in his employes, too. In
fact, he displayed as much Interest
In us as he did In his own family.
"President Roosevelt, I'm sure,
will always be remember as one
of the kindest men in the world by
all who knew him well."
