THE VETERAN Deputy Minister of1 Veterans Affairs Discusses Aims of Dept. 'Amps' Association Expanding This is a column for discussion of the affairs of men who served in, the Canadian Armed Forces in the Second World JVor. Information will be given on' rehabilitation plans and problems concerning men returning to civilian life. Address inquiries to the Editor of The Veteran, Ottawa Evening Journal. By Kenneth Parks, of The Journal Staff.

Ex-servicemen who claim they have been given the by officialdom in their attempts to re-establish themselves in civilian life will be given no opportunity to complain about treat-, meet accorded them by the Department of Veterans Affairs, we were told today by Walter S. Woods, Deputy Minister. Tne department nag two ob-. in recent years had re jectees in view. The first -is to "streamline" the organization.

The second is to pface all relations between the government and the veteran on a "human Mr. Woods said an effort was being made to organize all rehabilitation offices across Canada on the same plan as the Aylmer building in Ottawa, with all branches located in the same building. Co-operation of the Department of Labor was being sought so as to combine employment service with the other rehabilitation facilities. 7 The Deputy Minister added that instructions to all departmental- officers were to make certain no veteran had any reason to complain of abrupt or discourteous treatment "Our minister, the Hon. Ian Mackenzie, has instructed the staff that in cases of doubt they are to lean over in favor of the Mr.

Woods said. "We impress on the 'staff that if they do not have time and the desire to sit down and discuss- problems with veterans as though the veterans' problems are their own, that they would be better advised to enter some other field." While lack of space was a handicap during the earlier periods of demobilization, Mr. Woods said that care was being taken of this with the release of more men from -the armed forces. Recently competitions for key positions were held overseas and in Canada. As a result, the department 'was able to secure -the services of a number of outstanding men.

While the staff has not yet reached the anticipated eventual total of approximately 12,000, a substantial increase has been 7 made in the number of personnel with the total, of employes now standing at approximately 8.100. 'Amps' Extend Organisation. The possibility of forming sub-. branches of the Amputations Awociaiton (Ottawa branch) in Cornwall and Pembroke was discussed by officers of the organization at a recent meeting at Cornwall. The association is devoted to the purpose of assisting in the rehabilitation of men who suffered amputations as a result of war wounds.

Walter E. Brown, secretary, told us yesterday that 66 percent of all Ottawa and district "amps" of World War II have Joined. At the Cornwall meeting 14 new members were accepted. During the meeting they discussed a number of subjects of Importance. Capt.

Alan Piper, of Cornwall, urged that priorities be sought for leg -amputation cases wishing to obtain automobiles. shortage of wheel chairs, in particular those of the collapsible metal type.1 was criticized; Ralph Hodgson, who was first president of the Ottawa association 23 years ago, said in discussion of the prospects of employment for "amps" that the. labor suited In many, amputation cases finding work they were capable of carrying out efficiently. He said the attitude of employers toward men so handicapped had undergone a notable change. The remarks of C.

L. Smith, of the casualty rehabilitation section, Veterans Affairs Department, supported Mr. Hodgson's views. Can Still Apply. An ex-air force pilot, who left the service before the present scale of gratuities had been drawn and who has not yet made application for his money, asks whether there is any time limit for applications.

Officials state no such limit has been set for Today, application is practically automatic. the veteran filling out his form when he gets his discharge. Under existing regulations veteran is given 10 years in which to use of his re-establishment, credit ceived an enthusiastic vote of ap- Re-establishment Notes. Labor Minister Mitchell in a statement today said little evidence has. been found of.

employers trying to shirk their responsibility-in providing returned' employes with positions as good as, if not belter than, those they left when they enlisted. "So far, it, has been necessary to consider prosecution of the employer in only a very few cases, for failure to comply with the Civil Employment Act Since the subject of reinstatement is utmost importance to many servicemen awaiting discharge, we offer here a summary of regulations affecting their return to their civilian Jobs. A veteran can claim reinstate-men either verbally or in writing, usually within three months of discharge in Canada or four months if discharged overseas. In cases of ill health or other condition, there is provision for extension, though the employer must be notified within the three or.four month periods. The act says the.

veteran must be put. in a position under conditions not less favorable than would have been the case had he continued on in employment instead of Joining the armed forces. The period of service is to count for seniority and pension rights, vacations with pay and other benefits. Special skill acquired' in the services must be taken into account when adjusting rates of pay. Any period of mental or physical disability following discharge, which warrants delay in reinstatement is to be counted as a period of service.

if a veteran cannot perform his former duties, he must be reinstated in the most suitable employment available at which he is capable of working. Once reinstated, an ex-serviceman is to be discharged and in case of discharge within six months, the employer can be 'required to prove in court that the dismissal was for reasonable cause.
