VICTORY LOAN MAKES ONR NINTH LOAN LOOK LIKE BARGAIN They are going to have a Victory Loan in the United States later this month. The United States Victory Loan Bonds will be for 2%% and 2Vi%, whereas Canada's Ninth Victory Loan Bonds will be for 3%. The fact that Canadians can still buy their Victory Bonds and get twice bank interest has started a wave of record buying in the County. Some people feel that this may be the last time they can get as much as 3% on Dominion of Canada security. Also, many people have learned that their Victory Loan Bonds have appreciated in value over last few years. As one farmer said, "I bought Victory Bonds for security. It's pretty nice to know I have been getting double bank interest on best security in world. I now find that the bonds I paid $100.00 for a while back, are now worth over $105.00. I wish I had bought more." 'Under Canada's rehabilitation plan, veterans may use their re-establishment credit to buy, build, repair or modernize a house. DISCHARGED PERSONNEL MAY RETURN TO OLD JOBS The Reinstatement in Civil Employment Act, passed by Parliament in 1942, sets forth conditions under which employers MUST REINSTATE their former employees in their . employment after discharge. This Act and its Regulations nre administered by the Dominion Minister of Labour, through the National Employment Service. Reinstatement Officers are available in the National Employment Offices to answer inquiries, and assist in adjusting cases. Employees -- either men or women -- are to be reinstated if: (a) they worked for their employer 3 months immediately prior to enlistment, and were not replacing another employee who has since been reinstated; (b) they left their employment to join the Armed Services, the Merchant Marine, or the Fire Fighters Corps; (c) .they apply to their employer for reinstatement, verbally or in writing, within 3 months following discharge in Canada or 4 months if discharged Overseas. Provision may be made for extension of time if the employee's health prevents him or her from returning within the specified three months. In this event, the employer must be advised within the 3 or 4 months, as the case may be. The following points in the legislation are also important: 1. Discharged men and women upon reinstatement are to be given conditions not less favourable than would have been enjoyed had they continued in employment instead of joining the Forces. 2. The period of time spent with the Armed Services is to count for seniority rights, pension rights, vacations with pay, and Certain other benefits. 8. Discharged personnel who cannot perform their former duties are to be reinstated in the most suitable employment available, at which they are capable of working. 4. If an employer dismisses a reinstated employee within 6 months, he must be able to prove in court that he had reasonable cause for so doing.
