(For some time, Phillips said, the VA has been promoting edu cation and OJT as one means of producing opportunities fo Viet nam veterans. This latest plan enables VA to more effectively identify veterans, especially high school dropouts, who are In , need of jobs, or may need some ' additional schooling to qualify , for employment. Finding Jobs is not a primary responsibility of VA, but the agency helps in any way it can, Phillips pointed out. It also is a leader in hiring veterans under the Veterans Readjustment Ap- i pointment Authority, and has ' employed .5,000 yoi ng veterans ( since 1963. • j In addition, VA field special-- ists found jobs for 15,0000 veter-I ' ans in fiscal year 1971, and for about -15,000 veterans since 1968. Other jorb-assisting activities are canfed out through tlie agency's “Outreach ‘Program," job marts, job banks, job coun seling, job interview classes and ■cooperative programming with the President’s National Com mittee on Jobs for Veterans.

(Bowles, w!L.ijecently resigned his state senate seat to campaign for Governor, responed to news queries: “I was reluctant at first to criticize Governor Scott for appointing Gene Simmons to the j^, because I thought it might be just a onc-doilar a year posat- lon to fill a legal requirement and to honor his old political friend, Gene Siromons.” Noting that he has since learn ed of the salary figure, Bowles continued, “Obviously, that is not the case, and the ladmlnis- tration is now searching around for duties to assign Simmons to justify his 25-thousand dollar a year salary. “What lias been done is wrong, dead wrong.” ‘The intent of Uie reorgani zation was to eliminate the Dir- i MORE ABOUT BOB PRESSLEY i Coiitiiiucd from Pay/’ Three le.s.s than 112 inches, cars ui this| category ma't weigh a minimum j c; 3300 ixmnd-i.
