that there are five to nine millionproblem drinkers in the UnitedStates. Approximately 97 percent ofthese people are employed andnearly 90 percent of them haveworked 10 to 20 years. According toa I97S study, alcoholic workerscomprise 8 percent of the laborforce. They are at all levels of theemployment hierarchy; 45 percentare in professiona-l or managerial

Labor DayThe labor movement has become

one of the most important economicforces of our time.

At one time, labor consisted ofsmall groups of blacksmiths,shoemakers and other crafts work-ers. Today the total U.S. labor forceranges from service workers toprofessionals - 63.7 percent of thepopulation.

The Industrial Revolution sawfactory and mine owners ignoringthe welfare of their workers. Longhours, low pay and unsafe workingconditions were common in the1800s. Children were forced towork in mines or textile mills. Liv-ing conditions were often poor.

Workers protested and organizedunions to seek better wages andworking conditions. It was onlYafter strikes and protests that thelabor movement began to see im-provements. Workers received bet-ter wages and working conditions;child labor was abolished.

In 1884, the United States createdthe Department of Labor. It ad-ministers Federal laws on minimumwages, working hours and publiccontracts. Its concern is for the un-

employed as well as the employed,providing programs to furnishskills and experience for people toget and keep jobs.

President Grover Clevelandsigned a bill in 18% recognizing theworking people. It observes thefirst Monday of every September asa legal holiday known as Labor Day.

Though many will find Labor Daya time for relaxation and time off,none should forget the labors ofthose who made it possible.

General Places Stress Tuning Up Upward MobilityOn Employee Courtesy

Maj. Gen. William L. Nicholson,III, director of the Defense Map-ping Agency, was the recent reci-pient of a letter from representa-tives Elliott H. Levitas and Benja-min A. Gilman, members of Con-gress, regarding service to the pub-lic by Federal personnel.

In their letter, they stated, "Themanner in which Government per-sonnel deal with the public and respond to their inquiries and in-terests leaves lasting impressions.either positive or negative. Becausethis is a matter of great concern tothe President, the Congress and toall our citizens, we believe thatFederal personnel must be encour-aged to make special efforts to provide exemplary and courteous ser-vice to the public.

"Our desire to bring about im-provement in Governmentemployees' responsiveness promp-ted the provision in the Civil Ser-vice Reform Act of 1978 that per-mits performance standards to in-clude the extent of courtesyemployees demonstrate to the pub-lic. To reinforce this provision andto underscore the importance thatthe President and the Congress at-tach to this issue, we propose to es-tablish a prograrn of awards to rec-ognize the individuals and groups

that provide exemplary and courteous service to the public. The Officeof Personnel Management, whichprovides leadership to the effort toimprove courtesy to the publicthroughout Government, iscooperating in this recognitionprogram and will provide criteriaand nominating procedures."

General Nicholson said he agreedwholeheartedly that the image ofthe Federal Government, as awhole, is often gauged by the degree of courtesy or efficiency withwhich Federal employees serve thepublic. "All of us in the Federal ser-vice are public servants regardlessof rank or position. The Americanpublic has every right to expect ahigh level of courtesy.and effi-ciency from us in our dealings withthem," said the general.

He went on to say, "We in DMAdo not normally have the degree ofdirect contact with the public thatmany other agencies or organiza-tions realize. However, we must en-sure tlat in our varied contacts weextend the utmost courtesy andprofessionalism, along with a posi-tive and helpful attitude. I knowthat with the high caliber of ouremployees, we should have severalstrong nominations to submit whenthe criteria are announced."

Editor's Note: This is the third of afive part series on the recent selec-tees for upward mobility positionsat the Aerospace Center.

Jim Quick is an automobilemechanic helper in the VehicleMaintenance Branch of the Direc-torate of Logistics at South Annex.For him, his new job is, ". . . anescape from boredom." He hadbeen sitting at a desk in his previ-ous job and was ready for a changein his career.

Even though he didn't know a lotabout auto mechanics, he wanted totry for the job because, "this wouldbe a challenge," said Jim.

Now he is learning how to serviceautomobiles, and after one month inthe job, he is satisfied with his deci-sion to take ttre opportunity theUpward Mobility program offered.

Jim has been at ttte AerospaceCenter for six years in the SupplyDivision of Logistics prior to hispresent job. He is single, likeswater skiing and playing softball,and is a member of the Tavernmen's softball team at the Aero-space Center.
