Age Limits Raised For Civil Servants Gov't Announces TR -- Ottawa, June 10 -- (CP) -- In line with a policy of finding em- ployment for older persons, the Civil Service Commission Wednes- day announced a relaxation in the entrance age limits for a number of classes in the public service. The increase in age limits range from five to 15 years and directly affect 10 of the entrance classes. They were approved by a recent order-in-council. Age limit for customs excise clerks and customs excise examin- ers was raised from 35 to 45 years while immigration inspectors re- ceived a five-year concession from 35 to 40. The new limit for immi- gration guards is 50, an increase of 10 years. Greatest relaxation was made in the case of customs guards, mes- sengers, elevator operators, watch- men, packers and helpers, and cleaners and helpers, wine now may enter up to the age of 50. The previous limit was 35. These concessions affect civilian candidates only as the Civil Service Act walves the age requirements in the case of veterans entitled to the overseas or disability preference providing they are physically cap- able of performing the duties in- volved. There is no change in the cus- tomary 35-year limit for clerks, stenographers, typists and office appliance operators in the grades one and two. For many classes the commission does not define any specific age requirements. POLICE RADIO LINK Barrie, Ont.,, June 10--(CP)--A new provincial police radio station will go into operation here today.
