Since Public Law 176 was e nacted in Congress August 11, 1945, the first week of each Oc tpber has Tjeen observed as the period to promote the Employ ment of the Handicapped. The Employment Security Commis sion of North Carolina, according to Franklin L. Ware, manager of the Kings Mountain office, Is en gaged in a year-round program to promote Increased employ ment of physically handicapped workers. Mr. Ware pointed out that a physical handicap should not be a barrier to securing em ployment.

"We need to use those talents of the hand icapped ? we need them as ac tive productive citizens." Ac cording to our records, In the 30 days ending September 24, 1954, Kings Mountain employers hired six handicapped workers. Em ployers state that the handicap ped, if properly placed, will pro duce as much, and sometimes more, than the non- handicapped.
