These jobs are being funded by the Comprehensive Employment Training Act (CETA) says State Manpower Director, Earle Costello.Costello went on to say that “Public Service Employment (PSE) programs under CETA are not only reducing unemployment in outlying areas, but jalso supplying the personnel for niuch needed services”. jPrograms encompass a wide range of services: Public wrks and transportation, education, law enforcement, parks jand recreation, health and hospitals social services, environmental quality, fire protection and adminstration. jFor many outlying communities a volunteer fire department was the only kind previously possible. Now, through PSE programs there is paid and trained fire protection in these communities.The same is true of law enforcement where a State Trooper mi^tt come through■ t• •• •• •. pL - I . ■ ■only \ on a weekly. basis. Local police protection now is on a full time basis in many communities.Other first time services enabled by PSE programs under CETA are day care centers, city administrators and staffing for city iadministrations. CETA’s primary goal is labor force.However, it has become very evident that not only does CETA put people in jobs through its PSE. program but those jobs are making an important and substantial contribution to the overall good of many communities and villages.PSE Programs provided workers to maintain airport equipment and keep runways clear; increased services in the school system by providing school aides, teacher aides and• ' * \ !
