Veterans Placement Emphasis Expanded by Civil Service
The United States civil service commission will emphasize placing veterans in federal jobs and maintain aggressive recruiting to offer immediate employment to veterans. Disabled veterans receive priority on eligible registers, with exams opened for eligible disabled veterans and officers required to justify passing over veterans. A coordinating committee oversees placement of the physically handicapped, including medical and veterans' representatives, ensuring information reaches hospitals and agencies.
