Ken nedy, based on the Increase allowed | Prospects for Vets Brighter, Says Inglis Four hundred ex-service men who had been pound- ing the streets in vain quest of jobs until The Star opened its campaign in their behalf have been placed in good paying permanent positions, Col. William Inglis, of the Veterans’ Welfare Commission, said Saturday. Twenty were put to work the da mas, he reported. 10 men Friday for many mor ay before Christ- The street department called for morning and promised employment as soon as other new work opens up. “Prospects are better all along the line,” said Col. Inglis, following a conference Friday morning with department heads. “We are beginning to see daylight. Employers are responding more readily since The Star took the matter up, and we are getting downright optimistic. If employers keep up the good work, we'll be sailing along nicely in short order.” Aside from many permanent positions filled, Inglis reported many short jobs had been offered and ac cepted. This will tide some of the soldiers over the holid but after New Years the situation will again become tense, he said, if efforts are relaxed. Considerable new work will be opening up after the first of the new year, he said, promising oppor- tunities for a great many men. If plans materialize along this line, there should be few unemployed service men walking the streets by February 1, it is said.
