CIVIL SERVICE
ROUND-UP
In a move to recruit college grad-
uates, especially women, for profes-
sional service in federal offices, the
U. S. Civil Service Commission to-
day announced examinations for jun-
ior professional assistant and scien-
tific and technical trainee aide, Mrs.
Erma Wall, local civil service secre-
tary reported.
Junior professional assistants start
at *2433 a year und scientific and
technical trainees at 81752 a year,
which includes overtime compensa-
tion.
“War demands for college-trained
persons have created unusual oppor-
tunities for women in government of-
fices,” Mrs. Wall said, “and those
who have completed or are about to
complete a full four-year college
course in uny field are urged to take
the junior professional test.”
Inexperienced persons who have
had at least one uni’ of high school
physic*, chemistry, mathematics/
biology or general science are eligible
to take the scientific and technical
trainee examination. Persons select-
ed will be paid to learn mechanical
and scientific techniques necessary
to the work of such agencies as the
National Bureau of Standards, the
National Inatltue of Public Health
and others.
Applications for both these posi-
tions will be accepted by the Com-
mission's Washington office until
the needs of the service have been
met. Persons engaged In war work of
equal skill need not apply.

plying may be obtained from Mrs.

WITH THE . . .
LEGISLATURE
The Agricultural Committee of the
TexnR House of Representatives has
appointed a Sub-Committee of 5 mem-
bers consisting of Roger Q. *Evans.
Denison, as Chairman, Dan Dove,
Frank Svadlenak, Winford Dunn, W.
R. Garland, for the purpose of draft-
ing a Joint Resolution memorialising
Congress, the Office of Price Admin-
istraton and possibly other govern-
mental agencies relative to the diffi-
culties now facing Texas agriculture
which are resulting in bottlenecks to
our war Troduction program.
In the preparation of their Reso-
lution. the Sub-Committee will hold
ait open hearing In the House of Rep-
resentatives, Austin, at 10:00 A. M.
on February 20tb, 1943, at which
time all Texas farmers and other

vllcd to uppeur before the Committee
for the purpose of giving all detail-
ed Information possible concerning
the various handicaps now confront-
ing the different phases of Texas
agriculture. Those cltitens who re-
side too far from Austin to attend
this meetiug are urgently requested
lo write the Committee outlining
their individual problems a n d
thoughts on the matter, or request a
Committee meeting in their County.
It Is the intention of the Commit-
tee to cover all phases of agriculture,
including dairying, aheap, livestock,
goats, hogs, poultry, cotton, grain
and other foods and feed crops.
Evans said Texas farmers are over-
ly anxious to do their part—not only
In the reeding of this Nation, but also
in tho feeding of the peoples of all
our Allied Countries, but for Texas
agriculture to attain its peak of
production, some of the present price
squeezes, labor and feed shortages,
lack of furrn machinery, etc., must
be removed, and in order to make
the Resolution as effective as pos-
sible, the individual views of various
Texas citizens are essential. Repre-
sentative Mervyn L. Ramsey of Pa-
nola county, a member of the Com-
mittee on Agriculture, invites all
friends of agriculture to write him
Iheir views on these problems.

WACO. Texas.—If Texas farmers
are to be able, in tho face of labor
und machinery shortages and other
difficulties, to produce the food and
fiber needed for victory, they must
have all-out cooperation on tho legis-
lative! front, J. Walter Hammond,
president of the Texas Farm Bureau
Federation, the Slate’s largest farm
organization, declared here today.
The state farm leader expressed
vigorous opposition to lepflslation
that would add the four-rent high-
way gasoline tax to fuel burned In
farm tractors or any othgr non-high-
way using vehicles.
It is not only illogical ami unfair
to atempt to tax for highway pur-
poses gasoline not used on the high-
way, but-it would also materially in-
crease the cost of producing food and
fiber und add to the seriousness of
the already growing shortages of
these commodities,” Hammond said.
The Farm Bureau is also actively
opposing a measure expected to be
introduced at this session that would
place additional taxation and regula-
tion on itinerant trucks. "These
truckers perforin a useful service
in moving food, livestock, produce,
lumber, cedar posts and other sup-
plies to und from the farm,” Ham-
mond declared. “Tho transportation
situation is already serious enough
without complicating it further by
legislation that would put many
small truckers out of business."
The Farm Bureau Is supporting a
bill introduced by Senator George
Moffett of Chllilcothe that would set
certain minimum standards for in-
sect ides sold in this state.
On tho national front the Ameri-
can Farm Bureau Federation, with
which the state organisation is ^ffll
iated, is advocating farm prices that
would reflect increased coats of farm
labor.
“The farmer is having a hard time
meeting increased production coats
and competing with high wage-pay-
ing industry for labor.” Hammond
pointed out. “Texas farmers, with
thousands upon thousands of their
sons In the service, hare no wish to
profit from the war, but the country
faces a terrible food shortage unless
the farmer Is allowed to sell his pro-
ducts at prices that will at least re-
flect cost of production and enable
him to get and retain sufficient la-
bor to make and harvest hie crops.**
