Legislation is pending which would
authorize a very extensive and help
full program.
Where the returning soldier is ply
sically handicapped It is proposed to
give him special training which will
enable him to work out his Industrial
salvation in spite Of the handicap.
A one-armed man, for instance,
might be a good accountant, :
mar without legs an excellent chem
ist. A man who could not pillow might
be able to do window dressing, and q,
man who could not run a foot race
might be able to sell bonds or figure

Tho special lines outlined for voca-
tional education include, for instance.
courses in municipal and railroad &C.
counting. auditing, banking, insur-
ance, real estate, lunch room, store
and industrial arrangement. mathe-
matics, bonds and investments, proof
reading, window dressing and prep
aration for civil service examination.
AS side lines to agriculture for the
incapacitated ex-farmer there are
such studies as botany and chemistry,
with specialized courses definitely In;

agricultural operations, to be a. di-
rector or manager.

Gorgass calls curative workshops as

instance. in the 16 divisions from
which soldiers have been drawn Is
great hospitals with curative work

there will be. special appliances enab-
ling the individual to do light work

For the blind there will be APP
