SCHOOL NOTES
The Nome Public School un
der the supervision of Frank
Smola has -been very active late
ly. After concluding the suc
cessful Christmas Seal Campaign
in which the schoolplayed an
important part, we are now
selling war stamps in school
regularly. Every Monday the
elementary grades send repre
resentatives up to two high
school students who are in
charge of selling the stamps.
They buy the number of stamps
their class needs and sell them
in their own rooms. This plan
works well and the stamps are
■being sold at a rapid rate.
The high school is also pre
senting a play on December the
twenty-second which will be
well worth seeing. It is being
given under able supervision. If
you don’t like playts it will
still be worth coming to listen
to Frank Parton the pianist play.
The next time you see the
school band play you will not
ice there is a new director.
Sergeant Meyer who was the
former leader weis-' transferred'
to Fairbanks. Under him- the
band learned much and all. the.
members were sorry to see him
go. He had been the leader for
about eleven months. The pres;
ent leader who’s .name is Corp
oral Kerstine came from Cleve
land and is an able director.
Besides directing well he also
plays the Trombone. Even
though the band is small, with
a leader like the present one j
you may expect to hear good
music.
The pricipals wife, mother,
and children arrived from the
states. Now that the school is
settled down you can expect
much from the student*.

Veterans
Sure of
Employment
By JACK STINNETT
WASHINGTON — Except
for laws providing benefits and
rehabilitation for disaoied vet
iyans, the only “guarantee” for
the veterans of W’orld War II
on the statute books today is
Section 3 of the Selective Ser
vice Act—the so-called jab secur
ity clause. It provides:
[1) . That if a veteTan applies
to his employer within 40 days
after his discharge from the ser
vice, that employer must restore
the man (or woman, for the wom
en in all services are included)
to his old job at his old pay, -'or
one of like senority, status and
pay. unless the employer’s cir
cumstances have so changed as to
make it impossible or unreason
able to do so.”
(2) . The employer must main
tain insurance and other bene
4f,
fits for an employe in the ser
vice in accordance with terms
prevailings at the time of his de
parture.
13). An employe so rehired
cannot be fired without cause for
one year.
(4). .And if the employer fails
to do so. he can be compelled by
the courts and forced to com
pensate "for any loss of wages
or benefits” from the time the
veteran made application for the
job.
This being a part of the Selec
tive Service Act, It is adminis
tered by me Retmplcyrr.tr.*. IXv
s.on <5 Selective Service.
Section 8 has been described
; variously as ambiguous, imprac
tical, un-enfarcalble and as full
- f .holts as Hamburg. Cerm u. A
is that jls a declaration of .ntent
—.but a powerful one—rather
than an attempt by Cor.gress to
set up an iron toad statute to put
the veterans sack in civil.an ibfe
just where they left off. Suer. ar.
attempt would be more imprac
tical than Section 8.
The important thing is that
Section 8 is working. Mer. are be
ing discharged from the armed
services at the rate of about 7,.
000 a week (more than 500,000
already have been mustered out)
*nd while men are still gbtr.g
into the sesrv.ces at many tinker
that number, it has provided t
fair sampling.
Selective Service says as yet :t
has had no report that court ac
tion has been invoked to enforce
Section 8.
In most cases where difficulties
have arisen, a compromise be
tween the veteran and his for-j
mer employer has been worked |
out by reemployment members I
c. the local boards.
It is obvious that many em
ployers who will have shut up
s'n-'.p or changed their businesses
will have no jobs for the men
; they formerly employed. It is
also obvious that if the men have
been rendered unfit to perform
the tasks they formerly did, the
employer is not pound to reinstate
tihem in their old jobs at the
same pay.
There are other things on the*
fire for those men and women.
As one observer here put it: “It’s
becoming more apparent every
day that if there are just 11,000,
000 jobs in the country when the
men come home, those who will
get them will be the 11,000,000
veterans.”
