way not exactly some of these marching man wanted to go back to school but discovered they didn't have the money others learned the jobs they left behind were gone or if they were there they didn't want them they wanted something but for these returning soldiers no legislation in the past or any program mapped out to give them the break they deserved they got medals but fifteen years later some of these men were selling apples on street corners others were known contemptuous because in washington there are a group of congressmen with long memories who are in the last war they knew that when a man gets out of the army or navy a marine is worried most about the jobs and education and the home and that's why congress led by the president passed a law serviceman's readjustment act of one nine hundred forty four better known as the g i bill of rights and to make sure it works a veterans administration is already busy in washington with general franks hines in charge same amount depends on the length of a man service one hundred dollars for the man was only want to uniform two months two hundred for the g i s who served here in the states more than sixty days and three hundred dollars for the soldier who's been overseas  must report back to his draft board there if he wants his old job back he finds out of these eligible and how to go about it his ex boss doesn't want to give him back his elegy if necessary the local draft board will get the united states attorney to go to bat for the corporal at no cost and his ex boss will have to rehire him fred least a year if not of his old job then one with equivalent seniority status and pay not bad not bad i want about the guy who was unemployed before in a day and what about a guy like jones era was a better job than when he went in the united states employment service has fifteen hundred offices throughout the country with a special veterans employment representative to assist that soldiers in finding the right job one of the right job doesn't turn up so fast and even implied for a while then like taber here who is eligible to receive unemployment insurance twenty dollars a week up to a maximum of one year depending on his length of service or take the case of a man like albert hall who goes into his own business after a discharge if things are a little slow in getting started and he's earning less than one hundred dollars a month then through the g i bill of rights he receives a check each month making up the difference said something about an education what about a man like sergeant brown hair has just been let out before they are my god amy was going to school  go back bedrooms administration offices have been set up in every state and it's here the accelerator goes up he wants to continue with education under the g i bill of rights all he has to do when interviewed is prove that he was not over twenty five when  entered the service or show that his education was interrupted him a nigga get any kind of education he wants now you're getting the idea of any kind of education and in any part of the country school school college university the accident after consulting the veteran's administration decides he wants to go to new york university and here he calls on the registrar who also serves as a veteran's advisor supplies and equipment are included through the g i bill of rights the government pays sergeant brown's school up to five hundred dollars a year while brown gets fifty dollars a month for subsistence if he were married he gets seventy five  depending on the length of service a veteran can go to school from one to four years at the xcel gers already completed college and want to take a post graduate course such as law there's nothing to stop him oh yes one more point every soldier or sailor should remember that refresher and retraining courses are open to everyone regardless of age if a man wants to he can brush up on his training or plan to take new courses my house  administration in washington they were able to help him get a loan by guaranteeing it up to two thousand dollars of course george like every veteran had to meet certain conditions prove it was a reliable citizen but he was able to do that all right advantage of the g i bill of rights and not expect the government to come after him the g i bill of rights is not a reward or a handout or a gravy train but rather an american way to make it easier for each man to take his place once again in the community and get some of those things for what he went to war a job a business an education
