AMERICA WILL
NOT DESERT ,
HER SOLDIERS
This is Motto Of the Division
of Rehabilitation Of Fed
eral Board. J.

Chicago, Nov. 25.-'tAmerica's boys
not desert them"
This, in effect, is the motto of the
division Of rehabilitation of the fed
eral board of vocational education
| which has just opened district head
quarters here with a staff Of trained
experts who will look after the well
fare Of disabled soldiers. '
Every disabled soldier in a recon
struction4 hospital in America will be
visited by Representative Of the d.
vision, his case will be studied, he
will be permitted to choose the bust
ness or profession he wishes to enter,
and then will be sent to a training
school, a university or d college. Dur
ing the training or study period his
be paid and he will receive q stipu-
lated sum for living expenses. When
he is ready for business a position will
be found for him..
at is a tremendous task. but the
work is progressing satisfactorily -
said an officer in the Chicago head
quarters. District headquarters have
been opened, or shortly will be OPP
ened in Boston, New York, Philadel-
phia, Washington, Atlanta, New
Orleans, Cincinnati, st. Louis, Mime
apolis, Denver, San Francisco, Sc
attic and Dallas.
I'm a few,days the great Organize
ton will be in full swing and there
shall be nc need of dependency on
the part Of the disabled soldier. How
many men could this office handle in
three months? That is difficult. to
answer. In the few days we have
been open six hundred cases have
come to hand. Every case, mind you,
must be given careful thought and
study"
Charles W. Sylvester, director for
this district, which embraces Illinois,
Michigan and Wisconsin, said that ar
engagements now are being made with
educational institutions for handling
the men.
Virtually all Of the cases so far re-
ported to the Chicago office come
from middle west training camps, and
n unfortunates include consump-
tlves, mental weaklings, men with
chronic diseases made worse by camp
life, and others entitled to service un-
der the regulations of the war risk
insurance bureau.
r. c. Arnold, district case officer,
said that additional employees are
needed to handle the great number of
cases expected when men begin ar
irving from overseas. The vocational
division needs men with a wide
knowledge of the principles of indus
trial, commercial and agricultural en-
terprises in America. Successful ap-
p%licants. who will receive from $4,000
TO $4,000. a year, must have had three
years experience as administrative
officers in one of the three branches.

thorized to sen a block number of
extra packages from $4,000 to 10000.

! caution is taken so that the joy OF
