tary draft, you stated that:
“ ’The present draft ar-
rangements make it extrem-
ely difficult for most young
people to plan intelligently
as they make some of the
most Important decisions of
their lives, decisions con-
cerning education, career,
marriage, and family.’
“As to considerations of*
career, the private place-
ment agencies our Associa-
tion represents have had the
repeated experiences of at-
tempting to place young,
male job applicants who,
while otherwise qualified,
are virtually unemployable
because of the uncertainty of
their status in the draft.
“Your program to remove
from vulnerability all men
between the ages of 20 and
26 and provide for draft eli-
gibility only those 19 years
of age deserves support. It
would remove a significant
impedimeht to the employ-
ability of the great many
young men who seek our
members’ counsel regard-
ing job opportunities.
“To dispel a further de-
gree of uncertainty, we st-
rongly urge that physical,
mental and moral tests be
given at the time of regis-
tration. In this manner, the
registrant’s true classifi-
cation will be determined
early and his ability to plan
greatly enhanced. Moreov-
er, the Selective Service
System would gain an accu-
rate count of the number of
eligible men available.
, “You have the enthusias-
tic support of the National
Employment Association in
this effort, and we will make
our views known to the ap-
propriate legislative com-
mitees in the Congress.”
The National Employment
Association is the trade or-
ganization for private em-
ployment agencies. It was
formed in 1960 through a
merger of three predecessor
organizations. A key prog-
ram is professional develop-
ment, and its members are
pledged to a rigid Code of
Ethics.
There are over 8,000 sm-
all business firms engaged
in the private placement ag-
ency business. These firms
, employ some 40,000 people
and are responsible ter ap-
proximately 4 millionplace-
ments each year. Private
employment agencies define
a permanent placement as
one expect*'----- it least
90 days. The U.S. Employ- .
ment Sergice and its state
"afftales use an index of-
only three days so there is
no basis for comparison.

Service, Inc. and is a mem-

ment Association.

"Handy Andy smelled a

it flat blew his mind; now no

The Texas Safety Associa-

homeowners to be especially
cautious as the temperatures
drop and indoor heating be-
comes necessary. The Tex-

ported 462 deaths during 1968
caused by various types of
fires and explosions. With-
out careful attention to fire
safety rules, that number
could increase this year, the
TSA reminds.
