Week Ending 11 May 1978
1. (U) Day Care Center: , Chief,
Benefits and Services Division, atten e t e 0MB hearing on
9 May regarding proposed rental charges for Federal day care
center space. In his opening statement, the 0MB spokesman
indicated that the reaction to their proposal from a variety
o:F interest groups has been overwhelming. He emphasized that
no final position will be taken until they have good answers
for a lot of tough questions. Among these questions was:
"How do we accommodate other Federal. employees who do not have
day care services?" There are 74,000 Federal installations,
and total demand could approximate 80,000 children at an
annual cost of $62 million, not counting start-up costs.
There were 37 witnesses who requested time to speak
at the hearing and all were in favor of continued Federal
support of the day care centers through provision of rent-
free space and initial assistance in establishing the centers.
The attendees were in general agreement that parents should
pay a fee for children placed in these centers and that there
should be a sliding scale depending upon income and ability to
pay.
We obtained a copy of a child care survey conducted
at the Social Security Administration Headquarters in Baltimore,
and it should. prove valuable in our preparations for an
employee survey. A meeting was held with Mr. Taylor of
Ch .ld.ren First on 5 May, and we are awaiting a proposal of
services they could provide. is scheduled to meet
today (11 May) with the Agency Women's Board to bring them
up to date and to obtain their assistance in the survey.

recruiters, attended a
job fair for the handicapped at the Was ington Hilton Hotel
in Washington, D. C. Some 80 persons participated in the event.
stated the employment fair was well organized and that
contact was made with four individuals who wanted to discuss
career opportunities in the Agency: a blind male with a B.S.
in Commerce; a blind female with a B.A. in Math and Computer
Science; a deaf female with a Ph.D. in Microbiology; and a
Black male, a victim of sarcoidosis, a Ph.D. candidate in

employment; none had credentials of interest.
4. (U) Ad Response -- Medical Officers: The recent ad
for Medical Officers which tiva ppublished in two medical journals
and reported as a news item in The Washington Post has drawn
heavy response. Over 60 resumes have been received from doctors
to date.
5. (U) The Best Recruiter: A recent study of recruiting
trends published Michigan State University makes some obser-
va'tni.ons as to who makes the best recruiter. Business, industry,
government, and academic employers believe personnel staff members
make the best recruiters. Their overall knowledge of the organi-
zation, specialized training in interviewing techniques, and
experience in handling delicate situations were given as reasons
for this conclusion.
6. (U) Interesting Applicant: On 5 May one of the Ames

strike, whiclz began 30 April 1978, has made it necessary to

long strike. Any advance reservations which are made with
Northwest at the request of the traveler will be protected on
