TO MR. ARTHUR E. ROSE:
WE REFER TO YOUR LETTER OF JUNE 5, 1956, IN WHICH YOU ACKNOWLEDGE RECEIPT OF PAYMENT CONCERNING YOUR CLAIM FOR ANNUAL LEAVE. ALSO, YOUR LETTER RECITES CERTAIN FACTS WHICH APPARENTLY RELATE TO THE MATTER OF THE TERMINATION OF YOUR EMPLOYMENT WITH THE WEATHER BUREAU AND TO YOUR ELIGIBILITY FOR REEMPLOYMENT IN THE GOVERNMENT SERVICE.
OUR SETTLEMENT OF MAY 25, 1956, DISALLOWED YOUR CLAIM FOR SALARY COVERING A PERIOD AFTER SEPTEMBER 30, 1954, THE DATE OF YOUR SEPARATION FROM THE WEATHER BUREAU. THAT ACTION WAS PREDICATED UPON A DECISION OF THE CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION THAT YOUR SEPARATION WAS REGULAR IN EVERY RESPECT. WHILE IT DOES NOT APPEAR THAT YOU HAVE FURTHER APPEAL RIGHTS FROM THE COMMISSION'S DECISION, ANY VIEWS OR CONTENTIONS YOU MAY WISH TO ADVANCE IN THAT REGARD SHOULD BE ADDRESSED TO THE COMMISSION.
YOUR ELIGIBILITY FOR REEMPLOYMENT WITH THE WEATHER BUREAU, DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, OR WITH SOME OTHER DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY OF THE GOVERNMENT IS A MATTER FOR CONSIDERATION BY THE DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY INVOLVED, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION. OUR OFFICE IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO CONSIDER SUCH SITUATIONS UNTIL THE AGENCY OR THE CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION HAS ACTED.
IT IS APPARENT THAT THE FACTS RECITED IN YOUR LETTER AFFORD NO BASIS FOR ANY ACTION BY US. WE REGRET WE CAN BE OF NO ASSISTANCE.
