?i71'ANDARD FORM NO. sa Approved For gIease 2005r11/29 Office Memorandum UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 TO C/Plans and Research Staff FROM : C/Junior Officer Training Program SUBJECT: Weekly Activity Report #1 30 December 1954 - 4 January 1955 A. SIGNIFICANT ITEMS DATE: 5 January 1955 ~. I Ireports that the projected procedures for testing JOT candidates in the field by using professional contacts of the A&E Staff (Ref. Report #39, 29 September 1954) cannot be put into effect before 1 February at the earliest and probably not before 1 March 1955. This delay can have a very serious effect on the recruitment of JOT's during the period of maximum activity and is a matter of added concern because of the anticipated problem that has resulted from the drastic reduction in the number of recruiters which has taken place in the last few months. It is planned to bring candi- dates whose files warrant it to Washington for pre-employment physical exandnation, testing, and interview, but this can be an exceedingly expensive procedure. It may be that, as was done in the past, arrange- ments can be made to send qualified people to the field to do some of the testing. B. NORMAL ACTIVITIES 1. Of the ten JOT's who took language aptitude tests (Ref. Report #51), four received highest ratings (outstanding aptitude); one received second rating (above average aptitude); four received third rating (average aptitude); and one received fourth rating (less than average aptitude). 2. JOTI has offered his resignation verbally, indicating that only personal reasons are the cause.. He has expressed great satisfaction with his work here and with his experience in the JOT Program. 3.
